Against the Tide, Towards the Kingdom
By Jenny Duckworth, Justin Duckworth
Against the Tide, Towards the Kingdom is the story of the Urban Vision community in New Zealand. This book recounts the story of a group of young Christian adults who over the last fifteen years have relocated to the colorful ends of their city to share life with those who are struggling, homeless, sick, poor, neglected, or otherwise marginalized. The community has grown over time to seven neighborhoods . . . they share the whole of life with each other and with their neighbors. They live the gospel, this good news of Jesus.
