All students are welcome to RUF at UTC, regardless of personal or religious background. We welcome the "convinced" and "unconvinced" and invite all students, no matter where they are, to RUF as we consider the truth claims of Christianity together.
We want RUF to be a place where a student can come with questions, find fellowship with others, worship God, serve others, and grow in their knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ and His work on their behalf.

Davis Mooney
Davis was born and raised in the Chattanooga area. He attended NC State University where he got involved with RUF as a student. Soon after graduation in 2014, Davis met Hannah (their first date was Clumpies on the Walnut St. Bridge in Chattanooga), and they were married during Davis’s second year as an RUF intern at Virginia Tech. Hannah is from Nashville and graduated from Samford University. In 2016 the Mooneys moved to St. Louis, and Davis graduated from Covenant Seminary in 2019. They then moved to Winston-Salem, NC where Davis served as the Pastor for Students & Families at Hope Presbyterian Church for 4 years. Davis and Hannah welcomed their first son, Winston, in October 2018 and their second son, William, in June 2021. They love taking walks and hikes together as a family, trying new restaurants, and enjoying good meals with friends. Davis also enjoys cycling, trail running, and ultimate frisbee. The Mooneys are so excited to get back to Tennessee and be a part of RUF at UTC!
Stephen Berry
Stephen Berry is a graduate of Winthrop University with a degree in physical education. Growing up, he was homeschooled by his loving parents alongside his 2 lovely sisters and 5 significantly less lovely brothers. Stephen enjoys being active outdoors, playing sports, listening/playing music, watching movies, drinking coffee, eating food, smiling, laughing, and talking with those around him. Stephen's friends have often said that "he is almost as good as his hair," which is probably true and potentially hurtful. He is excited to serve as the RUF Intern at UT Chattanooga because it gives him the opportunity to go on a lot of good hikes, drink a lot of good coffee, and pour into college students through the same ministry that so faithfully poured into him for 4 years at Winthrop.
