Igneous Quill

The city of New York has a bit of a reputation among Christians as an ungodly place.  While it certainly (and thankfully!) isn't the Bible Belt, I'd say the reputation ascribed to it is somewhat unfair.

If you visit Manhattan sometime you will find historic church buildings around nearly every corner.  Some of these are nearly empty on Sunday mornings, while others are vibrant and alive then and throughout the week.  There are several seminaries in the city and countless faith-based non-profits.  Throughout the various boroughs there is an incredible range of church communities, from Brazilian pentecostal to African initiated faiths, traditional mainline Protestant to conservative evangelical, Roman Catholic to Orthodox to Episcopal.  It's all represented here.

There is faith in the city.  You just have to know how to look.
