Where does the congregation meet?

We love visitors at Nashville Sabbath Fellowship! We are meeting at a church that has graciously opened its doors to us in the Inglewood area. Please plan your visit by sending us a message. We hope to see you soon.

Can I contribute to the luncheon?

If you are a visitor, we really hope you will stay and eat lunch with us—it's our pleasure to provide the food for you. Our kitchen is not kosher according to Jewish law. However, we only serve certified kosher meat and keep dairy separate. If you’d like to contribute to our luncheon, please consider donating.

What should I wear to service?

On Friday nights and Saturdays, it is customary and appropriate to dress up as nicely as we can in honor of the Sabbath. Button-up shirts are a good idea for men. We place a high value on modest dress. Clothing should be gender-appropriate. Shorts are discouraged.

What should I bring?

If you have a favorite Bible, feel free to bring it or use one of ours. All you really need to bring is an attitude that is excited to learn and experience new things.

Please leave electronic devices such as tablets, computers, cameras, and games at home. If you have a mobile phone with you, please silence the ringer and do not take photographs.

What is Messianic Judaism anyways?

Messianic Judaism refers primarily to Jewish believers in Yeshua who continue to practice Judaism. Most people who attend Nashville Sabbath Fellowship are not Jewish, but they practice Messianic Judaism in imitation of Yeshua of Nazareth. We are part of the larger Messianic Jewish movement.

What day is the Sabbath?

The seventh-day biblical Sabbath begins at dusk on Friday nights and concludes after dark on Saturday nights.

Why do you observe Jewish traditions?

Jesus was (and is) Jewish and practiced Judaism while he was among us. At Nashville Sabbath Fellowship, we strive to be like Jesus in everything we do, which includes observing Jewish tradition when applicable and appropriate for Gentiles.

Do you use the Sacred Name of God?

Scripture tells us to sanctify the name of God and not to take the name of God in vain. We refrain from using the personal name of God in keeping with the practice observed by Yeshua, the early believers, and the rest of Judaism. For more information about why we don't use God's personal name, we recommend the book Hallowed Be Your Name.
