LICC

Who we are

Imagine if every Christian lived their life as Jesus would.

It would transform the people and places around them. It would change their organisations, communities, and societies. And it would change the world – as God works in and through his people, right where they are.

But most Christians tell us they have neither the vision nor the tools for the task. That’s where the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity (LICC) comes in. We’re working to catalyse a movement that empowers Christians to live as disciples of Jesus in daily life.

We’re here to help people know God more deeply, and bring his wisdom, grace, and truth to the things they do – at work, at college, and at home; in the pub, the shops, and the gym; on social media, in the office, and out with friends.

We work with individuals, church leaders, and those who train them, partnering with organisations and networks across the denominations. We delve into the Bible, think hard about contemporary culture, and listen carefully to God’s people, exploring the challenges and opportunities they face.

What we do comes out of what we learn. Resources, events, training, articles, books, films, stories, and more – all designed to encourage whole-life discipleship.

Jesus calls people into a movement of hope that will bring life to every human being and the entire planet. Today, the need for disciples living out that hope day by day is as great as ever.

We’re working to engage over a million Christians with this whole-life vision.

Our culture and values

At LICC, we aspire to embody and exhibit these values in all we do as we join in God’s mission to cultivate whole-life disciples.

Wisdom

We prayerfully discern at the meeting of God’s word, the world, and one another’s stories the time and place we’re in, and search out what makes for fruitfulness right now.

Authenticity

We’re real and true to our purpose, living out and landing all we do and say in everyday contexts which are relevant to each disciple’s frontline.

Creativity

We seek fresh and prophetic words and ways of communicating the call to whole-life discipleship that cut through the noise of this cultural moment.

Generosity

We cheerfully give and receive time, talents, resources, and encouragement out of love for one another, collaborating for kingdom wins bigger than ourselves.

Excellence

We seek quality in all we do and Christlikeness in all we are, emerging from a desire to glorify God and serve his people in a team effort. Love is our most excellent way.
