Christ Church Nashville

What Christ Church Nashville does

Christ Church Nashville is a private, nonprofit, interdenominational Christian church founded in 1949 in the Woodbine community of South Nashville by J. O. and Mary Wallace. The church operates from a multi-acre campus at 15354 Old Hickory Blvd, Nashville, TN 37211, led since May 2019 by Lead Pastor Ben Anderson, with a pastoral team covering youth, recovery, care, prayer, and Hispanic ministry. It serves a broad congregational base across multiple life stages and demographics, offering Sunday worship services at 10:30 AM (in-person and via livestream), Sunday School, and a portfolio of ministries including Life Groups (10-12 person home-based small groups), Christ Church Kids (nursery through 5th grade), Christ Church Youth (6th-12th grade), Christ Church Latina (Spanish-speaking congregation at Wallace Chapel), Celebrate Recovery (12-step program), Branches Counseling (behavioral health ministry), and Memorial Gardens (burial services).

The organization's core technology stack is administrative rather than proprietary, relying on ChurchCenter.com for event registrations and group management, FellowshipOne for recurring giving setup, and OnlineGiving.org for one-time and ACH donations with Level 1 PCI DSS compliance. A wholly-owned sub-brand, Barefoot Republic Community Center, operates as a jointly-controlled entity on the campus offering art, athletic, and youth programming. The church functions as a host hub for several mission partners, including Mercy Chefs (disaster meal response), First Priority (school chaplaincy across six Nashville-area counties), and international organizations such as The Abraham Project, Black Mountain Home, Siloam Family Health, and Mercy Multiplied.

Revenue is generated primarily through tithes and offerings from members and attendees, captured through in-person contributions, text-to-give (615-205-1098), and recurring online giving — a subscription-like recurring donation model characteristic of congregational funding. Secondary revenue streams include Branches Counseling fees, Barefoot Republic Community Center memberships (monthly billing with annual and drop-in rates plus need-based financial aid), Memorial Gardens plot sales, and fees for programs such as Vacation Bible School, camps, and retreats. The church is governed by a Board of Directors providing oversight in Finance, Human Resources, and Governance, with no parent company, no venture capital or private equity ownership, and no publicly disclosed financial statements.
