The College Ministry at Church of the City creates a welcoming community for college-aged students to deepen their faith and integrate into the body of Christ. Through various groups and gatherings, we help students feel seen, known, and valued as essential members of our church family. We desire to empower students to take ownership of their faith and continue their spiritual journey as they transition into adulthood. We’re excited to be part of your faith journey and growth!
Our college students have a Thursday rhythm. The first Thursday of each month is The Gathering. This is where all college aged students gather together for food, worship, and teaching. The remaining Thursdays of each month, students meet in coed community groups lead by adults in homes to engage in conversations based on the previous Sunday sermon.
The way of Jesus is best practiced with others. Join others in your stage of life in community groups that meet in the Nashville/Franklin areas for a time of Bible study, prayer, and deeper connection. To learn more or find a group that best fits you, check out our groups page below.
