"Through its creative and original learning tools, CityGate helps people connect their gut reactions and hidden emotional assumptions about things with their conscious beliefs and everyday practices - often an uncomfortable but quite revealing fit! - and helps them uncover, recognize and begin to live according to the true reality of themselves, their relationships, the world around and God".

Terry SchlossbergExecutive Director The Presbyterian Coalition
"CityGate is a unique ministry that emphasizes the Gospel's effect in transforming whole persons and whole societies".

Stuart McAllisterVice President of Training and Special Projects: Ravi Zacharias International Ministries
"The insights and efforts of CityGate are (I believe), just what is needed to explore the buried treasures of the Gospel and the hidden barriers in local contexts and cultures which often inhibit, or undermine it. I commend this ministry as a vital contributor for the Gospel in our times".

Rob MartinExecutive Director First Fruit, Inc.
"It has been our privilege at First Fruit to view up close this crucial and very creative ministry from its inception. We have gained immeasurably from our various connections of partnership with the learning community over these succeeding years".

”SEN (CityGate) is one of the best kept secrets in missions. Their creative, people-centered, relational style of ministry means that Central Europeans are growing in Christ, becoming leaders, and discovering Jesus Christ — without violating their culture and history. I know of no ministry which is doing a better job. If you don’t believe me, ask some Central Europeans”.

Daniel RausJournalist religious broadcasting in the Czech Public Radio
"The answer to the atmosphere of our time seems to be people who have more questions then answers - and that is people in Citygate".

Ray NashChristian Witness to the Royal Show
"Having seen you at work and benefited in my own ministry from your unique approach to the application of doctrine to our contemporary situation, my great desire is to see the work expand its influence. Our need today is a result of Christians not understanding the gospel, sums up the situation perfectly".

Dr. Wade BradshawDirector of mission, Trinity Presbyterian Church
"CityGate is a dynamic, biblical voice in the culture of Central Europe arising from something all too rare – careful listening to its neighbours and the culture’s questions".

Ranald MacaulayChristian Heritage Cambridge UK
"What Citygate is doing is what the whole church in Europe needs to do - bring the gospel into the whole of life".

David BroersmaRussian American Christian University
"I am impressed with the work of CityGate because they do not waste their time answering questions that no one is asking. Instead, they have started in the right place and listened carefully to the real questions that people have. And, the answers they find to these questions are liberating because they are genuine and they point people in the direction of ultimate reality".

Denis HaackRansom Fellowship
"The people of CityGate are people of integrity, committed to the conviction that the historic Christian faith speaks to all of life and culture. Blending creativity, thoughtfulness, and a deep care for people, they invite an open-hearted examination of the radical claim that in Jesus God has revealed himself and provided a solution to the sad brokenness of our world. The more I am associated with them the more I am challenged by the things that matter most, and the more I am humbled by the notion that extraordinary things can result from ordinary people living faithful lives".

Nick NedelchevPresident of the European Evangelical Alliance
"CityGate is well known as a servant to many people from many nations, helping them by opening their minds to see and use the opportunities to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They are very helpful especially for thinking young people".

Dr. Reg McLellandProfessor of Philosophy Covenant College
"In Colossians 2:8, the Apostle Paul warns us not to mis-led by patterns of thought that are not grounded in the truth of Christ. The minstry of CityGate works to assist individuals to identify such patterns in their own thinking and to reform them according to Christ and to integrate them into the whole of their experience".

Charlie ColchesterInternational Director, CARE
"City Gate has shrugged off the test of time. It has stood firm for the central place of the Gospel in Society as the history of Central and Eastern Europe has gone through a time of revolutionary change. Its message is vibrant, relevant and mature; it is incredibly important, profoundly needed and one of the world’s most exciting and imaginative ministries. There are very few Christian initiatives which actively shape the culture of our times, City Gate certainly does. It is a privilege trenchantly to endorse it".
