All of Jesus for All the World the Christian and Missionary Alliance, otherwise known as the C&MA or The Alliance, is an evangelical denomination that grew out of a calling to introduce the love of God in our neighborhoods and throughout the nations. The Alliance was birthed in 1881 when Pastor A. B. Simpson organized a small group of believers devoted to experiencing Jesus in His fullness and making Him known to New York Cityâs marginalized dock workers.
From His first invitation to His final Commission, Jesus invites His followers into the deeper life with Him and out alongside Him to all the world. âCome, follow Me,â He says, calling us to Himself. âI will send you out,â and âGo and make disciples of all nations,â He commands, sending us out with His heart to the world. And His promiseââI am with you alwaysââguarantees His love and empowerment through His Spirit at all times.

At the heart of our faith is a call to be with Jesusâto receive all of Him and to be transformed by His work. And being with Jesus carries us to where His heart isâwith the people of the world who are lost, marginalized, and searching.
This is why The Alliance exists. Together as a family of Christ followers, we believe that obedience to God and the overflow of a deeper life in Jesus compel us to do everything in our power to share the good newsâAll of Jesus for All the World.
