We are leaders and churches unified to reach every man, woman, and child in North America with the Gospel.
Started in 2012, we came together around a dream:
Can you imagine a movement of disciples sharing common resources and tools, united across geography, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and denomination?
We have been living out that dream everyday since.
We desire to serve churches and their leaders through providing a way for the Church to join God on His mission.
We are united together under a shared vision and common beliefs:

Jesus is our Hope.
Every man, woman and child in North America needs access to this Hope.
God calls His people to pursue His mission together.
The Bible is the Word of God.
Jesus is the Son of God.
The Gospel is the way to God.
Though God created us to live in a harmonious relationship with Him, we turned away from Him. through faith in Jesus, we have the opportunity to restore that relationship and experience a new life with God. (Matthew 4:23, Luke 9:23)
The Church is the people of God.
We affirm a personal, Holy Spirit-led conviction to take responsibility for the spiritual condition of the people in our local geography.
We are led by both a Directional Team and a Delivery Team – Pastors and Practitioners.
The role of the Delivery Team is to develop a national network of local network leaders who are missionally impacting their geographies, relationally collaborating, encouraging and supporting each other and representing the message and vision to others around the country.

Christ Together is an encourager to churches and cities who desire to reach every man, woman, and child with the Gospel. In Austin, churches have been collaborating for Gospel saturation for many years. Through purposeful listening and observation, Christ Together continues to find ways to help us serve our city more effectively.
We have been working with Christ Together for 18 months and have seen an incredible shift in collaboration in our city. We have had so much movement we have additional churches in our region asking us if they can be a part of what God is doing. We had a second envisioning and had 5 more churches officially join in our efforts to reach every man, woman and child in our city with the gospel.
