Types of churches in Marietta

Historic Downtown Churches

Centered around the Marietta Square and the tree-lined stretch of Whitlock Avenue, historic congregations worship in brick sanctuaries with steeples and stained glass. Services tend to be liturgical or traditional, with choirs and established community programs that have served multi‑generation families. Many are walkable from Glover Park and anchor neighborhood life west of the Square.

Non-Denominational Churches in Marietta

Across East and West Cobb—especially near Barrett Parkway, Delk Road, and Roswell Road—non‑denominational churches offer contemporary worship, practical teaching, and casual dress. These congregations often feature strong kids and student ministries, small‑group networks in nearby subdivisions, and easy access for commuters along I‑75 and Cobb Parkway. Weekend services are typically supported by modern production and volunteer teams.

Spanish-Language Churches

Marietta’s growing Latino community supports congregations that worship in Spanish or offer bilingual services, particularly along the Franklin Gateway and South Marietta Parkway corridors. These churches emphasize family-centered ministry, cultural celebrations, and practical support such as ESL classes and resource fairs. Many also partner with local schools to serve apartment communities.

Young Adult Churches in Marietta

With the KSU Marietta Campus nearby and tech employers along Cobb Parkway, several congregations focus on college students and twenty‑somethings. You’ll find late‑morning or evening services, midweek gatherings, and small groups clustered around apartments on Delk Road and near the Loop. Programming often includes service projects, worship nights, and mentoring for early‑career professionals.

#NamesMatter
“How important is a name? Evidently, pretty important. A major corporation like Procter and Gamble, Coca Cola, Microsoft, Levi's will spend millions and millions of dollars to fight off the misuse of their name. When a company is up for sale, one of the major considerations of the selling price of the company is its perceived value of its brand name. The recognition factor is extremely important. A name speaks of our identity. A name speaks of our reputation. Ask any young couple who has contemplated the name for a soon to be born child. They will check for the origin behind the name and what it means, they will repeat it over carefully, over and over for the sound and the rhythm with their surname, they know instinctively that a name is a powerful symbolic representation of who we are.”

#ChoosePresence
“A god wants followers. A father wants sons and daughters. A god relies on resources. A father relies on relationship. I'll tell you, one of the things that scares me about some churches, they're all about relay resources but do they have relationship? You got to have both. A guy that give you knowledge, fathers give wisdom. Guys tell you what to do. Fathers will go there with you. Gods are temporary. Fathers are lifelong. Gods are many. Fathers are few. We're praying that god will raise up fathers who have a heart for their children and will implement things and implement truth and impart truth, impart truth. And there again, what does a man gain if he gains the whole world but lose his own soul? Lord, let him know truth. Let him know truth.”

“But here's what I want you to see before we go any further. Peter is not a villain in this story. He's not being reckless or rebellious. He is being human. He is doing what human beings have always done when the ground beneath them shifts and the future in front of them is unclear. He is reaching for something familiar, something that once gave him identity and income and a sense of control. He is not running towards sin, He is running towards comfort.”
61s
“However, this is where the beauty of gospel starts to shine. You see, after all the things that James says about us, after calling us murderers, adulterers, enemies, he gives us the best of news in verse six. He gives greater grace. He gives greater grace. Isn't it amazing that we cannot out sin God's grace? We can't fall beyond the reach of God's grace. We can't dig a hole that's so deep that his mercy can't reach. Wherever pride and brokenness have taken us, God's grace is greater, y'all.”

“So that is really as we as we conclude this season of forward and faith in which god has done all of this and god has refined us and god has, you know, led us into the beginnings of a new chapter in the life of our church where we thank God for what he has done over the last thirty years, and we ask him for his favor for the next thirty years. That's my challenge to all of us to make that declaration. You know, we live in a culture that does not honor God, does not worship God, does not, revere the name of God.”

#ProfanityIsAttitude
“And yet, it's not those words, it's not these words in themselves that are wrong. It's not the arrangement of the letters or the sounds. It's not even the meaning of these words that make them profane. It's not the fact that these words, some of them speak of our bodies and their private parts and functions, what makes a profanity is the attitude that is carried with those words. The attitude. Here's what's interesting. The word profane comes from two Latin terms. Pro means in front of. Theme means the temple. Those who use profanity have forsaken a holy and a sacred attitude that is expected in front of a temple. They have allowed their minds and their hearts and their mouths to make it a common marketplace.”

#GuardYourWords
“``When we consider today how people will go to extreme lengths to protect their names and their reputations, Of how corporations will spend millions and millions of dollars to defend their names and their images. Should we be surprised that God does not want his name and his reputation tarnished by our carelessness. God has given us a very powerful tool in this gift called speech, an instrument that obviously can be used for good or for evil. And Jesus summed it up when he said that, What comes from our mouth is indicative of what is in our hearts. What we say indicates what's here inside us. May God help each of us to recognize the preciousness of this gift that God has given us and use it appropriately to glorify his name.”

#LiveTrueNoOaths
“And they thought that if God had not been made a part of that transition of that transaction, then it was permissible for them to break the commitment. What Jesus said is there is no possible way to keep God out of our transactions. Whether God's name is mentioned or not, God is always present when a pledge or an oath is given or taken. Therefore, an oath using God's name should never be necessary for us. We should live in a way that people will know that we are individuals who will always keep our word.”

#FathersImpartTruth
“And he cultivated that. And let me say this, thank God he did. Because that relationship is the rock that this house is built on. And without that foundation, I'd fall flat. How many knows that there are storms in this life? Thank god that relationship can keep us anchored. I heard of a little girl one time that was riding in a plane, and they went through turbulence, and it was going up and down, and everybody was getting scared. And one little girl was just humming along, and it kinda aggravated the woman sitting beside her. She said, honey, don't you see what's going on? She said, I'm not worried. My daddy's the pilot. That relationship with our father will help us make it through the up and downs. We have that. So there again, a heart that's present, a heart that pursues relationship.”

#IntentionalDadLove
“``A father must do more than provide a living, but he must give love, attention, and affection. Not only are you present, but you pursue a relationship. You pursue that. You're intentional about that. I heard about a man who was telling his coworker about how many soccer games he had been to, and his coworker said, man, you must really love soccer. And the dad says, no. I really don't care for it much, but I love my son. And my son loves soccer. There's something about getting invested in what others are invested in. And making sure that we're pursuing and carving out that.”
