Amy has called Nashville home for over twenty years, making her an honorary Nashvillian. She stayed close to home and attended Belmont University and Vanderbilt Divinity School. Her greatest hope for the church is to create a community where everyone has a sense that they truly belong; where people are loved for exactly who they are. 

She met her husband, Chance, on the very first day of college, in the very first class they attended together. Since then, they’ve shared life’s many adventures with their daughter, Adelaide, now a high school senior navigating the college application season. Amy loves all things Disney, is a champion foosball player, and can often be found planning her next trip or cheering Adelaide on in her latest pursuit. 

Stephen Nix is the Director of Music at HPC, where we celebrate the diversity of musical styles in worship.  His basic belief for making music is to have fun, be inspired and be creative.  He was born in Mobile AL, on a farm, not too far from the Gulf of Mexico.  At the age of 4, he started singing harmonies with his family and playing his sister’s piano lessons.  At 16, he started at the University of South Alabama pursuing a bachelor’s degree piano, voice and choral conducting.  He was accepted into a Graduate Fellowship at the Louisiana State University, where he pursued his MA in arranging and music pedagogy. 

Stephen's had the privilege of traveling the world as a pianist and music director for numerous professional artists in multiple genres.  He was also creative director for a Nashville and Hollywood based music publishing company and currently spends a little time as a guest clinician and vocal coach.  He has written several hundred songs, which have been recorded and sung throughout the world.   His heart is helping others become the best musicians and singers they can be through the universal language of music to build faith and community.

I’m Madyson Bain, Director of Finance and Operations at Hillsboro Presbyterian Church. A small-town Tennessee native and proud UT grad, I’ve been married five years and love raising our two young boys. Faith, family, and community fuel everything I do. In my free time, catch me on a ball field somewhere or out playing with our precious dog!
