We seek to provide adults of all ages a safe + loving space where you can find connection, build relationship + live out the LOVE of Jesus.
Below you will find many opportunities to meet new people, find support, and build community here at Glendale outside of worship. We hope that you will jump in and get connected. If you have any questions about Glendale, questions reach out to Pastor Steph.
Want to join a LifeGroup?
These groups are intentionally smaller gatherings of our church community that meet regularly to journey together in faith + life. Our LifeGroups meet at restaurants, in each others’ homes, coffee shops and other places around the Greater Nashville Area to deepen their faith, have fun and serve in mission together.
If you are interested and/or have a question about our Life Groups, reach out to Chris.
Weekly Groups + Gatherings
Adult Group
Sundays Following Worship @ 11am
Stay after worship as we continue our exploration on the sermon and scripture of the day. We will review the main points of the sermon and then do a deep dive into the Bible passage it was based on to discover what other lessons we can draw from it, share how we may have been inspired by the passage, and explore what practical actions we can take to live out God’s Word in our faith journeys. Come + bring your thoughts and questions with you each week! Questions? Reach out to Ben.
Glendale Sunday Brunch
Sundays Following Worship @ 11:15am
Want to go grab a bite to eat after worship? Come and eat with us at a different nearby restaurant each Sunday! This will be a great time to meet someone new or deepen our friendships over some delicious food. Meet up with the group leader (who will be holding up a sign) after worship each Sunday and we will head on over! All are welcome to join! Questions? Reach out to Steven.
