Young Adults
You're figuring out who you are, what you believe, and what comes next. So are we. Let's do it together.
Less program.
More people.
Think dinner-table conversations, open Bibles, and room to wrestle with the big questions. Young adults at GateWay is a group of people in their late teens and twenties who gather to eat together, talk honestly about life and faith, and sharpen each other along the way. Sometimes that's at Ryan's house. Sometimes it's around a fire pit. The format changes — the community stays.
Food, conversation,
and something deeper.
This is space to wrestle with what you actually believe — and why. We open the Bible together, talk through the questions most people feel but don't always say out loud, and pray for each other through whatever season you're in. No performance, no pretending — just real friendships forming around a faith that's becoming your own.
The best way to find out when the next gathering is? Follow along on Instagram or reach out to Ryan directly.
This is the season where
faith becomes your own.
After high school, everything shifts. New cities, new jobs, new questions. A lot of people drift from church during this season — and we get it. But we also believe that this is exactly when community matters most. When faith stops being something your parents handed you and starts becoming something you choose for yourself.
That's what this group is for. A place to belong while you're figuring it out.
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
