The Seven Textures of Urban Vision
Our covenant is proving very useful to us. We have our three strands of Jesus Centre, Deep Belonging and giving our best for the least. These are known, understood and embraced across UV. We have been looking for concise words that add further clarity and expression to the movement.
These are to describe our identity, the culture we create among us, “the way we carry out our covenant”, the stuff that makes UV unique among movements and churches.
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.
