Grace Story Church · Nashville

Grace.Always & Only.

A Bible-centered family of families in Nashville, TN.

Gathering Sundays · 4:00 PM · Donelson, Nashville
Welcome Home

Everyone needs a place to call home.

When you walk in the door at Grace Story Church, you'll find a group of people who have found exactly that.

We're a Bible-saturated community that strengthens and nurtures families. Two-thirds of kids walk away from the faith after high school. We want a better future for ours, catechizing them in the historic faith and giving them a loving place to grow and know their Savior.

Our hope is to establish a clear and lasting witness to the glory of Christ, right here in Donelson. Join us on Sundays at 4pm and see why we love calling Grace Story home.

Beliefs

Grounded in grace, shaped by the Word.

Our message is simple. God saves sinners by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, and everything we do follows from that.

Grace Alone

Salvation is the free gift of God. It is never earned, only received.

Bible Saturated

We open the Word every Lord's Day and gather at the Table, keeping the historic pattern of the church's worship.

Family Focused

Catechism and family discipleship at home, forming an orthodox and covenantal faith in the next generation.

Christ Exalting

A clear and lasting witness to the glory of Christ. That is what we are here for.

Our Culture

If we had to pick one word to describe our church culture, it would be “family.”

We are convinced that the family is at the center of God's mission. To put it plainly, the church exists to equip families, not the other way around. We choose home-based living (think homeschooling, plenty of margin, even the occasional chicken coop) so that we can attend to our children with the care this holy calling demands. In that way, we are preparing them for an enduring trust in what is true, and a lifetime of bringing good and beautiful things into the world.

If you're looking for a church that celebrates and equips families, we invite you to join us for Sunday worship.

Kids

We take kids seriously.

The Bible only prescribes one method for discipling kids: teach them the Bible, especially the story of how God saves his people. We use the Cross Formed Kids curriculum to train our kids so that they can read fruitfully from every page of the Bible for a lifetime. Then, every other week, we enjoy family-integrated worship so that they can be trained from a young age to participate in the full life of the church. Most importantly, we equip every family with the tools they need to teach their kids the Bible effectively.

Spiritual Formation

Becoming like Jesus, together.

Formation is slow, ordinary work. We grow through the Word, the Table, prayer, and a shared life.

  • Word and Table every Lord's Day
  • Creeds, confession, and the Christian year
  • Catechism-based family discipleship
  • Midweek Story Groups in homes across the city
  • Family-integrated worship
What is a Story Group?

These same-sex groups of 3-6 meet twice a month over coffee, a meal, or dessert (or all three?), to discuss the most recent sermons in depth. Our hope is that everyone who participates in a Story Group would encounter Jesus in a transformative way.
