Resonate Global NYC 2026

Resonate Global is a six week cross-cultural project that will challenge and encourage participants to live out the Great Commission so that we may reach all nations. We do this by sending to global cities, urban areas that are highly diverse in language and culture and are hubs for trade and finance. By the year 2050, it is estimated that two-thirds of the world’s population will live in a global city, and we as Resonate Church are joining in what God is doing in these cities.

The Bible says in Matthew 28 to “Go and make disciples of all nations…”. We later see in Revelation 7 that one day there will be “A great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.” God’s heart for the nations has been made clear throughout the entire Bible. New York City is a beautiful example of what Revelation 7 may one day look like: in New York City alone, over 800 languages are spoken, which makes it the most linguistically diverse city in the world. Similarly, in the city of London, we see 40% of the total population were born outside of the UK.

New York, as well as other global cities, is wonderful for participants of Resonate Global to make many cross-cultural connections while working alongside our ministry partners who work daily with unreached people groups living in global cities.

As students are exploring career options and thinking about their post-grad trajectory, we want to equip them to think like missionaries, whether they eventually land in a PNW city with a Resonate site, New York, Austin, or somewhere else in the world. The best training for this mindset happens when students experience what it’s like to start a church by building cross-cultural relationships in a new city.
