The Downtown Presbyterian Church

Thank You! Your rating has been saved.

Gathering in the heart of Nashville, we are a community of disciples of Jesus Christ.

We seek the welfare of the city as we seek the kingdom of God.

We are an historic church working to be a welcoming and inclusive congregation.

Together we actively share God's grace and love through worship, education, and service and through being an active voice in promoting justice and peace in our community and the world.

Our Values & Ethos

We believe that every person is a beloved child of God, no matter how estranged or close that relationship may be. Where God's love is, there is no shame.

Our welcome extends to everyone, whatever your economic circumstances, your faith background, your racial or ethnic identity, your sexual orientation or gender identity, or your party political affiliations.

As a diverse community we seek to intentionally embody God's radically inclusive & transformative love for everyone. With love & grace, we are called as a community to grow together as a voice for justice & peace - each as we are, with our unique human stories of joy and struggle.

Whether you join us for worship on a Sunday or the homeless lunch, when we say, "Welcome", we mean it. No strong arm tactics, no hidden small print & no strings attached.

Who We Are - then & now

"We are a downtown church. Some regard this as a handicap. I look upon it as an asset. Give me a church where life is densest, and human need is greatest - not a church in some sequestered sylvan retreat, not a temple in some lonely solitude far removed from the walks of life and attended only by the children of privilege and leisure, but give me a church whose doorstep is on the pavement, against whose walls beat and lap the tides of labor, whose hymns mingle with the rattle of cars and the groans of traffic, whose seats are within easy reach of men falling under heavy burdens, and whose altars are hallowed by the publican's prayer. God grant that this old church on the busiest corner of town may increasingly be this kind of church!"
