Our Staff
Scott Huie
Pastor
As the pastor here at Bellevue since August 2021, Scott is now serving his fifth church since becoming ordained in ministry back in 1994. On the side, Scott heads up the H2O Artist Agency, booking mostly Contemporary Christian artists all over the world. Besides his love for music and the church, Scott has an affinity for teenagers, Tennessee Titans football, March Madness basketball, and the sport of tennis (though his backhand could use a little help). As the father of two millennials, Madison and Jackson, Scott is a graduate of Davidson College and Columbia Theological Seminary. His favorite scripture is Psalm 103, his ice cream of choice is Moose Tracks, and his passion is people!
Marylou Cohen
Office Manager
After moving to Nashville in 2018 to be closer to family and getting settled and decorating our new home, I found herself with ‘nothing to do’. With almost 20 years of experience in church business (as Office Manager) I was excited to see an ad for a ‘part-time’ office manager for BPC. Applied for the position and have been at BPC since May of 2019. Love the work, love the members, and have found a home here in Nashville.

Noralynn Knight
Preschool Director
The Knights moved from the Carolinas to Nashville in 1997 when a job transfer brought their family to the area. With 3 young children at home, Noralynn wanted to find a career that allowed more time with her family and the ability to explore Nashville and all it has to offer. Their family began worship with Bellevue Presbyterian Church and enjoyed the family atmosphere. Experiencing the warmth of the church family at Bellevue Pres. and admiring the exceptional preschool program led Noralynn to join the preschool herself. This was the perfect opportunity to explore her interest in child development and education while serving the community that had become home . Noralynn has been assisting the preschool programs advancement for over 16 years now and looks forward to more exciting growth for the church and preschool in the future.
