Assessment

Christ Church Nashville — 'three streams' congregation (liturgical, evangelical, charismatic). Senior Pastor Dan Scott is ordained in the Anglican Mission in the Americas (AMiA) — a movement from East African revivals. The address (15354 Old Hickory Blvd) is in south Nashville. Known for music and inspirational worship. 'Three streams' and AMiA ordination makes this theologically unique — not standard evangelical. L.H. Hardwick was previous long-time pastor. Interdenominational identity. Needs further doctrinal evaluation.
