City Builders: Parish Life with Dr. George Grant

The beginning of the 19th century was a time of societal and cultural upheaval. The Industrial Revolution had created massive changes in daily life, and in the culture. The Church of Scotland was moribund. In that milieu, not unlike our own, God moved Thomas Chalmers, a young pastor, inspired by his experience of the grace and glory of life in a small rural Fifeshire parish, to import the beauties of parish life into a completely foreign environment--the burgeoning city of Glasgow. The result was a transformation of the city and a revival/reformation that overwhelmed the church, and all of Scotland.

Community Presbyterian Church-- invites you to join us as we delve into those glories and graces, and explore how we can apply them in our lives in 21st Century America. Come explore how life in a committed community can become a place of grace for the lonely and disconnected around us, and how that community can be used by God to transform our city, one person, one family, at a time, as a vehicle to fulfill the Great Commission, and see the Kingdom of God grow in and around us.
