What's in a name?

Last night we unveiled our new name and logo: City Night Church


The Bible Talks has a long and proud history of faithfully preaching God's word. It's a history that we want to continue.

But as we've been thinking about what city ministry looks like and how we can best use our location and the opportunities that gives us to reach the city, we've wanted to have a name and logo that helps to focus our attention on who we are and what we are doing.

We're a church - a gathering of God's people, gathered by his word, to sit under his word and learn from it.
We're a church in the city - the great city of Sydney, deepest darkest Sydney, that desperately needs to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, and by the Holy Spirit be moved to repentance and faith.
We're a church in the city that meets at night - we gather outside in the square for coffee from 6pm and at 6.30 at night we kick off inside.

We are CITY NIGHT CHURCH

We want to glorify God as we reach the city with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

And we'd love you to join us!

City Ministry

One of the things we have been thinking and praying a lot about at The Bible Talks is how we can best do city ministry as we seek to reach those who live in the City of Sydney, as well as those who work in the CBD or come to church with us in the city because we are at the centre of lots of traffic networks.

I came accross this sermon by Dr Tim Keller during the week that I thought I'd share with you all as food for thought. Tim is the Senior Minister at Redeemer Presybterian Church in New York City and heads up their ministry to the city of New York.
