How it all started...
Our story began in the early 1900s during a time of revival in the Tennessee Valley. In northern Chattanooga, a small group of devoted individuals gathered in homes and tents for prayer and worship. By July 1915, ten of them formally organized the North Chattanooga Church of God, known today as The Ministry Center.
From the beginning, The Ministry Center focused on reaching those without a personal relationship with God and building meaningful connections. Fueled by the life-changing message of the Gospel and a straightforward mission, the church flourished. Membership grew to over 400, and many members heard God’s call to go and serve. They answered by becoming church planters, pastors, evangelists, military chaplains, and missionaries.
The Ministry Center’s foundation remains rooted in its mission: to share the Gospel and empower people to live out their faith in service to others.
