BIBLE-TEACHING CHURCH IN MEMPHIS

EVERYTHING ROOTED IN SCRIPTURE

Practical, relevant messages from God’s Word every Sunday.

If you are searching for a Bible-teaching church in Memphis, Tennessee, where the message each Sunday is rooted in God’s Word and connected to your everyday life, The Life Church is worth a visit. Founded in 1996 by senior pastors John and Leslie Siebeling, our church is a diverse, Spirit-filled body of believers with three Memphis-area locations and additional locations across the country and around the world.

How We Teach the Bible

Every Sunday at The Life Church, you will hear a relevant message from God’s Word that is practical and applicable to real life. Our teaching is honest and accessible, designed to meet people where they are and help them take a next step in their relationship with God. We are a Spirit-filled church with a heart to reach young people and those who are far from God or have given up on church, and that conviction shapes the way we open the Bible together each weekend.

A Diverse, Life-Giving Church

When John and Leslie Siebeling moved to Memphis in 1996 with a core team of seven, they came with a vision to plant a church that would teach the truth of God in a relevant way and bring people together across cultural, racial, and social lines. That vision is still at the heart of The Life Church today. Our congregation reflects the diversity of Memphis itself, and we believe that the local church should look like the city it serves.

“ Growing up in church, I read the Bible...but I didn't really understand how to read the Bible until I came to The Life Church in Memphis, Tennessee. Pastor John's teachings opened my eyes and heart to God's word!

— Olivia J.

Sunday Services at Three Memphis-Area Locations

We gather every Sunday at 9:00am and 11:00am at three Memphis-area locations: Houston Levee in Eads, Highland in East Memphis, and Austin Peay in Raleigh. Spanish translation is available at the 11:00a service at our Houston Levee location. If you cannot make it in person, you can stream our services live on YouTube. Each Sunday service runs about 80 to 90 minutes and includes powerful worship, a Bible-based message, and a welcoming environment where first-time guests are encouraged to stop by the New Here area for a free gift and a friendly conversation.
