History of Christ Community Church

The origin of Christ Community Church dates back to 1986 when the CCC core group began meeting as a Sunday School Class at Christ Presbyterian Church in Nashville.

When we look toward the future of what we will do and where will we go, the mission statement of our church best sums up our past, present and future...

Christ Community Church is called by the God of all grace for the transforming of life in middle Tennessee—spiritually, socially, and culturally—through the power of the Gospel—from Franklin to the nations of the world—all to the glory of God.

We welcome you to join us and help write the next chapter in our history !
