“…this was a land unknown to them, today was drawn on a map of time by God’s own hand. My very modest words were already recorded, and His hand has been ready ever since to hold your hopes and catch your tears. No matter where you came into this church, at the outpost, the village, or upon the sea, this was your church… you made gardens on a ship and a village on the sea. You magnified and enthroned. So, brothers and sisters, today is not just a departure, it is also an arrival. While we do not know what lies beyond the shore, where we will each make our home or for how long, we can say, “well done.” We can say, “this is finished” and yet, there is much left to do.”
Near the end of 2023, Christ Church closed its doors to consider a future hope of continuing our fellowship at Legacy Church Knoxville. For years Christ Church has been faithful to worship God, love others, and publish the gospel in our city and beyond. It is with hopeful anticipation we walk into a new season and look to a similar church with familiar rhythms - Legacy Church Knoxville. Although things have changed, a time has come and gone, it is the same Jesus, it is the same gospel, and He will always build His church!
