Yes, The Life Church in Memphis is a Bible-teaching church. Every weekend message is built directly from Scripture, and every ministry from Kids Life to Axis to Life Groups is designed to carry that teaching further than a single Sunday morning. If you’re trying to figure out what “Bible-teaching” actually looks like in practice, the answer is simple: the Bible is opened, explained, and applied to real life, every single week, at every location.
What “Bible-Teaching” Means at The Life Church
Some churches use Scripture as a starting point for a broader topic. The Life Church in Memphis takes the opposite approach. Teaching pastors open a passage, walk through what it actually says, and then connect it to the situations people are living in right now, whether that’s a marriage under strain, a career decision, or a season of doubt. Messages are organized into multi-week sermon series that dig into a theme or book of the Bible over time rather than jumping topic to topic, which means the teaching builds week over week instead of standing alone.
A Team, Not Just One Voice
Pastor John Siebeling is the senior pastor of The Life Church, but you will hear from several communicators throughout the year. Each one brings a different voice while holding to the same standard: open the Bible, teach what it says, and make it practical.
