Building a complete man

Our vision is simple yet profound: to build a complete man — spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically — grounded in the unchanging Word of God and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

We are committed to raising individuals who are not only strong in faith but also influential in their communities, workplaces, and families. Our desire is to see people transformed by Christ, becoming reflections of His love, wisdom, and power in every sphere of life.

Giving is worship

We believe Jesus is a giver and not a taker. Not only has He given us life and breath, but by His death and resurrection He defeated the sin that would rob us of both.

So, when it comes to giving, we believe percentages are a thing of the past, and obligation is the wrong approach. Worship is a response to God's extravagant grace.

  • Gift Aid. If you pay UK tax, Gift Aid adds 25p to every £1 you give, at no extra cost to you. Ask us for a declaration form.

City of David is a place to grow, belong, and thrive. Join a community where faith deepens, friendships form, and lives are changed. You don’t have to walk alone—this is your family in Christ.
