New City Academy

Courses that help you understand the truth of the Bible so that you can grow as an equipped follower of Jesus.

Equipping Disciple Makers

We are created to live a God-glorifying purpose that transforms us and our world. Living in a postmodern world can make this difficult, but God calls us to be disciples who serve him with passion and purpose. We can do this by understanding the message that God is speaking to us through the Bible.

New City Academy provides learning environments to equip disciple makers through training in biblical truth, character development, and practical ministry skills to help people find and follow Jesus.
