For us, church looks like:
1. Meeting in a dance studio.
Or really anywhere. We’ve met in Airbnbs, dorms, and outdoors. Our church isn’t a set address (except for tax purposes) but a community of God’s people worshipping together. A more practical reason for meeting in a dance studio? Owning a building is expensive 🤷
2. Being pastored by a former atheist.
2. Being a college-focused church.
College is a very influential time. For many, it is when you develop core pieces of your identity. [make]new is a church of Duke students, many of whom became Christian in college.

3. Encouraging questions.
Telling someone to “just believe” is dumb. In an ever secularizing society, we want to demonstrate that faith in God is not only reasonable but points to God. Join us for [make]new Fridays where we go over topics ranging from, the fine-tuned universe to the historicity of the Bible. And checkout our online book (really, a google drive folder), Christian Themes for Privileged Teens.
4. Living life together.
We believe the Gospel has real implications how we live our life. One of the clearest ways that was done in the early church was selling their possessions, providing for one another, and living in community. We don’t think anything has changed.

5. Sharing the Gospel.
If you had life saving news, wouldn’t you share it too?
