We lived in Middle Tennessee for a year. My husband went to the University of Tn Space Institute at Tullahoma. In Tullahoma and Manchester, there really was a church on every corner, practically!
Our daughter went to Vacation Bible School at a Baptist church, even though we’re Catholic, and everyone was very polite. “Oh, you’re some of those evangelical Catholics,” the pastor said when we started discussing the Bible.
I’m just north of Tullahoma. Nice place as is Manchester if you like the fact “fine dining” is a Logan’s Roadhouse off Interstate 24! lol
