Find a faith-centric, meaningful college experience
No matter what path you pursue at Lipscomb, you can be confident that our strong academics will be rooted in Christian faith and you will find a genuine, supportive, and uplifting campus community. Meaningful community begins in our residence halls, where your peers, residence directors, and RAs will help you grow spiritually and relationally during your next four years. Faith is also foundational in the classroom, where you will grow in your industry knowledge and learn from devout professors who will serve as teachers and mentors.
From there, you will have the chance to gather weekly with the Lipscomb community at The Gathering to worship, pray, and hear from guest speakers who encourage you in your faith. To keep the conversation going, our weekly breakout chapels allow you to dive into a specific topic of interest while gathering in a smaller community setting.
We also believe the best way to lead is by serving. That’s why we offer various service opportunities throughout Nashville and around the globe. From our annual QuestWeek service day to global mission trips to our LIFE program that allows incarcerated individuals to earn college degrees, service is at the heart of our mission. Through all of these efforts, we seek to love others wholeheartedly while challenging you in your studies and faith.
