Inscription. Founded in 1851, the Brentwood United Methodist Church was located on Frierson Street. The building was destroyed by a storm in 1884, and the church was moved to Church Street onto land donated by Mr. and Mrs. Hugh C. Moore. That building was struck by lightning and burned in 1936. It was rebuilt and remained there until the church moved to this site in 1972. A new sanctuary was built here in 1991. It became the largest church in the Tennessee Conference in 1982.
