A different kind of Friday night — sober, full, and alive. This is what happens when college students find real community.

The Challenge

They need a
better alternative.

At Phi Slam, we’re moved by the challenges college students face today. Research shows that 70% of college students abandon their faith during their first year, often feeling isolated. As students seek a genuine sense of community and fun, we’ve witnessed young men and women grappling with new pressures — often with few options as alluring as the downtown party scene — in search of connection. Caught between loneliness and choices that test their values, they need a better alternative.

The Solution

The most fun you can have in college.

Phi Slam is dedicated to creating a vibrant, faith-filled solution: dynamic, alcohol-free events that bring college students together. Across our five campuses, we train and equip Phi Slam leaders to create unforgettable events designed to connect students — especially freshmen — with godly communities and local churches. Through relational evangelism, we help students build meaningful relationships while maintaining, renewing, or coming to faith in Jesus Christ. We believe Christians can have the most fun in college, thriving in a supportive, sober environment that deepens their relationship with Jesus.

In Their Words

The impact,
in their voices.

Parents, students, and leaders on what Phi Slam has meant to them.

Sandra Barfield, a Phi Slam parent: ‘I love seeing how my son has grown in his faith in college. We believe in the mission of Phi Slam and the way these young men are able to create conversation around the gospel by providing events for students.’
Dillon, a student: ‘Phi Slam was instrumental to me finding Christian community. Without it, I wouldn’t have met some of my best friends. They were a really big reason why freshman year was so great.’
Louie Giglio of Passion City Church: ‘I believe the influence of Phi Slam on college campuses has the potential to strengthen student culture while nurturing enduring faith.’
