Application for Admission
In partnership with The Fellows Initiative
In the Fellows Initiative and in each local program throughout the US we strive to love and exalt Jesus Christ with our heart, mind, body and soul and in all areas of our lives. We desire to apply God’s truth to our lives and to help others learn and apply that same truth. We stress the essential relationship between knowing, feeling, and acting on the truth—being the people Christ calls us to be. We are a people who live out our faith in community within the local church. In this context, we strive to equip and train the next generation of leaders to love the local church and to engage God’s world. We are looking for recent college grads who long to explore an all-encompassing faith, nurture a heart for the local church, and awaken a hunger to be thoughtful believers in this world—to engage the culture in a thoughtful and winsome manner. We believe in the Creation of this world, the Fall of mankind, the Redemption given to us through Christ Jesus alone and the Restoration of all things found only in Christ.
We are thrilled that you are interested in applying to The Nashville Fellows!

“The simplest way to answer this is that a series of circumstances during my senior year of college and the following summer made it clear that my next step was to be in Nashville. I came here to explore the music industry and ended up falling in love with the city and now plan on investing myself in whatever sphere I am placed in here in Nashville.”
