The Denton congregation was established in 1941 with some fifty members. This congregation first met in a renovated house on Welch Street, near the North Texas State College campus (now UNT). Outreach to college students was a high priority. The congregation grew rapidly and a building with a seating capacity of 325 was constructed in 1947. Steady growth continued through the 1950’s and a new auditorium was completed in 1957, to accommodate 500. In 1964 a Bible Chair addition was made to the building. Hundreds of college students were taking Bible classes for credit at that time. Several years later a state ruling disallowed credit for religious courses taught off campus. Despite the end of the Bible Chair, numerous college students make us their church home away from home each year.

In the late 1980’s a several Hispanic members began meeting with us and eventually a separate worship assembly began. Iglesia de Cristo meets in the same building and we enjoy full fellowship and cooperation.

Our membership is culturally diverse, but united by dedication to God and his word, and love for one another. We are a small church family seeking to grow. Please visit us soon!
