We believe following Jesus was
never meant to be done alone.

Delight exists to invite college women into Christ-centered community where they can belong, grow in their faith, and be deeply known.

What began with a handful of women gathering together in a college bell tower has grown into a nationwide ministry reaching women on campuses across the country.

Why we're here

College is a defining season for her faith.

College women are navigating independence, new pressures, questions about identity, and decisions about what they believe and who they want to become.

And too many are doing it without Christ-centered community beside them.

We believe every college woman deserves a place to belong, grow in her faith, and be deeply known.

That's why Delight brings Christ-centered community right to the college campus.

Belong

Find genuine Christ-centered friendships and a community that feels like home.

Grow

Open Scripture together, ask honest questions, and grow closer to Jesus.

Be Known

Experience the freedom of being fully known, deeply loved, and encouraged in your faith.

Our story

2012

A Friendship & Shared Vision

Delight began with two college women, Mac Bridges and Kenz Durham, who experienced firsthand how transformative, honest, Christ-centered community could be. What started as a desire to create that kind of space for women on their campus would soon become something much bigger.

The Bell Tower

Where Delight Took Root

Week after week, women began gathering in the bell tower at Belmont University. They opened Scripture, shared what was really going on in their lives, prayed together, and found the kind of community they'd been craving. 
And Mac & Kenz quickly realized women on other campuses were craving it too.

Today

From One Campus to Hundreds

What began from one friendship has become a nationwide ministry led by college women themselves.

Equipping & Discipling

We believe in taking the time to bring others closer to Jesus while equipping them to become strong, servant-hearted leaders who can do the same for others.

Spirit Led

We look to Jesus in every decision, plan, and strategy. We seek His direction, trust His leading, and choose faith over fear.

Jesus is at the center of everything we do.

Our ministry is rooted in Scripture and united around the essential truths of the Christian faith.
