In our daily walk, we must surround ourselves with a support team to be with us during our high and lows. God made us this way, and therefore gives the way to create that group of believers in the church. Finding a church wherever you live is paramount for growing in your faith. But you're new to the area, and have no idea where to start. That's a place where the BCM steps in. We want you to to be involved in a church during your time in school and here to help you get plugged into one. Below are a few of the many great Knoxville area churches, some contact info for each, and some people that go to those churches if you have any questions.
