About Grace Hill Church:
Grace Hill is a non-denominational church in the heart of Collierville, TN. The vision of Grace Hill Church is "to become a community of grace and peace, for the good of our city and the fame of Jesus."
To help us accomplish this, we have four key strategic partnerships that help us expand our vision, they are:
Through these partnerships, we help to provide housing, food, clothing, encouragement to teachers and funding to advance these organizations and the needs they encounter. In 2024, we are partnering with The Forsaken Children to fund four teenage girls escaping the sex trade in Africa.
Much of our discipleship focus has been leading our staff team and congregation through Emotionally Healthy Discipleship and the Emotionally Healthy Spirituality course. We also host a number of book clubs throughout the year to dig deep into certain subjects.
Our focus is not on divisive politics or cultural wars, but rather on embodying the message of hope that comes from the gospel of King Jesus and "his kingdom come." We want to bring hope to the bored, bitter, and broken, fostering unity in the local church, and witnessing real-life change.
Our Lead Pastor, Jason Stockdale, was a worship leader for 15 years prior to becoming a Lead Pastor in 2016. He has also led creative teams and communications for large churches in the Memphis area. You will have someone you report to who is uniquly aware of the challenges that come with this role and will be a strong advocate for you, your development and your leadership in our church.

The Hiring Process:
What’s it like to live in Collierville, TN.
Collierville is a Suburb of Memphis, TN. Collierville Schools has recently been voted the best school district in the state of Tennessee and recently completed construction on the 100+ million dollar High School. There are ample outdoor activities and parks nearby including Shelby Farms, Johnson Park, Herb Parsons Lake, and more. For the sports enthusiast, there is always so much to take in. From the Memphis Grizzlies (NBA), University of Memphis Tigers, Memphis Redbirds (AA Baseball), 901 FC (Division II professional soccer), and you are only a short drive away to see the Tennessee Titans as well as lots of SEC football action around! The area has a unique history with music (Sun Studio, Ardent Studio, Graceland), the Civil Rights Movement (The Lorraine Motel, The National Civil Rights Museum), and food (who doesn’t love Memphis BBQ!).
Grace Hill Church started in 2016 and has a compelling vision God is calling us into. In 2022, we sold our 30,000 square foot facility to become debt-free, and have gone portable so we can intentionally invest more of our finances back into ministry and serving our community, not buildings and debt. We have a lease on a historic church facility, right the heart of our community and we are looking toward our future as we look to build our staff team to lead, equip and help our church reach our community as "we become a community of grace and peace for the good of our city and the fame of Jesus."
We believe this vision creates a future for our church that is bright, that we might become a place of rest and belonging, and that we would, through the power of the local church as God’s people move in unity together see life change take place in our cities, and as Jesus said in Matthew, people would see our good works and glorify our father in heaven.
