Who We Are
We hope you will consider being part of what God is doing through our community, ministries, and mission.
Our vision: To be a Bible-centered, prayer-driven church committed to making disciples of Jesus Christ.
Our mission: Christ Presbyterian Church is prayerfully committed to making followers of Jesus by teaching them to worship God in spirit and in truth, encourage one another to love and good works, and serve others as faithful stewards of God’s grace until the Lord comes again.
Three Congregations, One Church
We believe it’s important to be fully present with the church every Sunday. We welcome you to attend any of our in-person services, or online when you are out of town!
Christ Pres has several worship locations around Nashville, all of which are part of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and the Nashville Presbytery.
Our Story
Serving Greater Nashville For Over 40 Years
Since our first gathering in 1981, Christ Presbyterian Church has grown from a mobile congregation meeting at Hillsboro High School to a permanent home on Old Hickory Boulevard. We've expanded our impact through Christ Presbyterian Academy, continuously evolving under the leadership of visionary pastors. Our commitment to spreading faith and nurturing community led us to become a multi-site church, further deepening our outreach throughout Nashville.
Our Discipleship Pathway
“Worship the Father in spirit and truth” (John 4:23–24). We regularly worship God, both privately and corporately, guided by Word and Sacrament, in adoring and repentant faith, to acknowledge the beauty and worthiness of the Triune God—to serve the Lord and be served by the Lord.
“Consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near” (Hebrews 10:24–25). We regularly gather in smaller groups to encourage one another by “teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God” (Colossians 3:16).
Each of us has “received a gift,” and the Bible instructs us to “use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace” (1 Peter 4:10). We can both serve and give inside the church (Galatians 6:10) and outside the church as we love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:39) until every nation, tribe, and tongue stands before the throne of Jesus (Revelation 3:9–12).
What We Believe
We embrace Biblical and historic Christianity as expressed in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, and as summarized in the Nicene and Apostles’ Creeds. Additionally, we affirm the five tenets of the Protestant Reformation: Scripture alone, by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, and to God alone be the glory.
