The Engage Church Network

We want to see communities thrive. That’s why we walk alongside people in every life stage and through every changing season. For over 50 years, we’ve addressed the needs of poverty, education, and healthcare through efforts, such as the Middle Tennessee Initiative. And we won’t stop until we reach every corner of the world.

The Engage Church Network (ECN) is a family of gospel-centered churches,
serving together to reach their communities for Jesus Christ.

Our community efforts supply valuable resources that contribute to the overall health of communities. Through our church plants, partnerships, campuses, and leadership, we will continue to engage the whole person with the whole gospel of Jesus Christ anywhere, anytime, with anybody.

Church Plants. We extend ministry among people and places identified as unengaged and unreached, by bringing the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We survey the geographical location, review the area’s demographics, and prayerfully plant new churches as God leads.

Partnerships. We partner with the wholistic church by identifying the people, places, and purposes where God is already at work. We support one another, have agreement in belief, and are united in calling, while being contextualized in community.

Campuses. We launch campuses under the leadership of Brentwood Baptist Church and share the same DNA through a common mission, vision, and message. Each campus has the flexibility to contextualize ministry to its unique community under the leadership of its own campus pastor.

Leadership. We identify, train, and deploy leaders through the Engage Leadership Institute. We empower leaders to fulfill their unique calling as church planters, pastors, worship leaders, group leaders, and mission leaders from local community efforts to international work.


Will You Join Us?

We are reaching people in our communities, in our country, and around the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ. But we can’t do it alone.

People just like you are stepping up and stepping out to engage others with the whole gospel of Jesus Christ. Instead of hiring outside professionals to accomplish our vision, we are “calling out the called” within our own church family to be part of what God is doing across Middle Tennessee and beyond.

Are you ready to be part of establishing gospel-centered churches and serving together to reach communities for Jesus Christ?
