Chris Adams

The Rev. Dr. Chris Adams is a dedicated Realtor, ordained part-time pastor, and author of Can We Call You Part Time? Innovating the Future of Ministry and Who Do You Say I Am? Discovering Your Voice in the Presbyterian Church. With a unique blend of ministry and marketplace experience, he specializes in both residential real estate and church properties—helping individuals match their lifestyle with their home and congregations reimagine ministry space for greater impact.

A strong advocate for Christian leadership in business, Chris brings a faith-driven perspective to every transaction and interaction. His work is rooted in a passion for building community, whether it’s guiding a family through a home purchase or advising a church on their next chapter.

In addition to his real estate and pastoral roles, he actively serves in local initiatives, believing that lasting impact begins with engaged, Christ-centered leadership. He and his wife Paula, married for nearly 35 years, cherish time with their three children, ages 19 to 30.

Also a musician at heart, he finds refreshment in both song and motion—often combining his love of music and cycling to clear his mind and renew his spirit. Whether leading a sermon, closing a deal, or cycling through Tennessee hills, Chris brings intentionality, joy, and a servant’s heart.
