Questions abound. Where is our society headed? What is God up to? How do we live faithful to the gospel in such a time as this?
For such questions, NCB offers something rare: third spaces of learning across cultures, generations and theological traditions, where clergy, laity, academics and practitioners gather to discern faithful response to today’s pressing matters.
Your gift before year’s end can keep these needed spaces thriving.
Conversations with real impact
Says Evelyn: “NCB’s intercultural gatherings have been a transformative experience, spaces where conversations flourished, eyes were opened, and gospel relationships were strengthened across diverse cultures.
Not only did we see the image of God in each other, but we also grew in solidarity, identifying ways to support each other: new inter-church partnerships, an emergency-needs fund, legal consultations for church families, to name a few.
These gatherings truly embodied NCB’s mission of integrating theology, story-telling, prayer and practical application.”

The Gap We Face
As societal tensions mount, the need for third spaces is greater than ever - so many questions, so little time. Without your support, critical dialogues will be delayed, lesser-heard voices will be sidelined, and our team stretched too thin to facilitate robust learning, gospel discernment, and relationship building so the Church can show up faithfully. Your gift today makes sure people can come together right now - to listen, learn, heal, and take faithful action.
Grateful for You
These days, I especially resonate with the Apostle Paul who wrote: “I thank my God every time I remember you…for your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now” (Philippians 1:3-5). The bridge-building ministry of NCB would not be possible without you. I am grateful beyond words for the prayers, support and heart encouragement that you bring to me, my team, and our growing lot of fellow sojourners.
Let us continue to run the good race together, shall we?
