Get involved

Find your people

Sunday is the center. The rest of the week is where the friendships happen: big questions over a pint, young adults who actually show up for each other, kids who love coming to church.

Big questions. Good company.

Pub(lic) Theology

About once a month, Rev. Ben leads a conversation about faith and the big questions, in a bar or a café, not a church basement. No background needed; bring a friend who’d never come to church.

Thursdays, 7–8:30 PM at Beer Street South, 550 Vanderbilt Ave
Saturdays, 10–11:30 AM at Mille-Feuille, 622 Vanderbilt Ave
