Yes. Born into it. Immersed in it's attempted synergy between the Calvinistic and Arminian. Set free from its theology ironically enough by a Cumberland minister who showed me how the roots of the church are not so Arminian as it has become. I went a step further in my studies and fully embraced Calvinism as the true doctrine taught in the scriptures.

I maintain my membership in the Cumberland Church due to family ties, friends in the faith, and the fact that I believe in spite of its flaws there are many fine men and women of faith in the church serving Christ daily.


I see you are in Memphis. The center of all things Cumberland, as the denominational headquarters and seminary, Memphis Theological, are there. You must be familiar with the denomination.
