Reformed, expository, gospel-centered churches — because Detroit needs the Word of God.
Metro Detroit is home to one of the largest Muslim populations in North America. Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties together contain hundreds of thousands of Muslim residents, with major concentrations in Dearborn, Hamtramck, Sterling Heights, and Detroit proper. The city of Detroit itself has faced decades of economic hardship, and the spiritual needs of its communities are immense.
Yet God is at work in Detroit. A resurgence of gospel-centered churches is bringing the Word of God to neighborhoods that have long been overlooked. Detroit needs expository preaching, faithful discipleship, and churches that are unashamed to proclaim Christ crucified to every ethnicity and background in this great city.

Reformed expository tradition
Detroit's Muslim neighbors — Arab, Bangladeshi, African-American, and others — are made in the image of God and are deeply loved by Christ. The gospel declares that there is one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus (1 Tim. 2:5). Detroit's churches are called to proclaim this truth with love, courage, and cultural sensitivity.
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek." — Romans 1:16
