From Boardroom to Blessing: The Question That Started City Vision

In 2014, I made a significant shift, moving from CEO to Chairman of the company I’d spent eighteen years building. By then, that company had grown to a team of 100 spanning three continents, serving blue-chip clients, and touching the lives of some 20 million people annually.

Yet, despite this success, my inner focus was shifting. After spending time memorising and meditating on the Sermon on the Mount, I was haunted by a single question: What would a city truly look like if the Kingdom of God came fully?

The answers I found felt incomplete, sparking a season of deeper prayer and research. I soon added two more questions to the mix, questions that pointed to a deeper fracture in the Christian community:

  1. Why was the Christian business community in every city I saw so fragmented?

  2. Why did Christian church leaders in a city seem to have only superficial relationships with one another, despite Christ’s primary command being to display love?

The disconnect was clear: not only were the leaders separated from each other, but they often lacked meaningful connections with the city’s Christian business community.

This led to the foundational question: What might happen if these two vital groups—the Christian business community and the church leader community—actually came together?

Over an intensive 18-month period, I dove into research and discussion, meeting with around 300 Christian business people and church leaders across the UK. The journey from running a large-scale commercial enterprise to grappling with city-sized spiritual challenges felt like a seamless fit—the lessons on engaging huge, complex organizations now applied to city transformation.

This process birthed City Vision. We are an enabling agency, built to help the 'business people of peace' and the 'church leaders of peace' in a city find practical, new ways to work together and truly bless their city. The encouragement we’ve received has been overwhelming, confirming my deep conviction: God is with us in this endeavor to bring His people together for the sake of the city.
