Nashville’s NBC affiliate reports:
The Wilson County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the shooting that left the home of Greg Locke, pastor of Global Vision Bible Church in Mt. Juliet, riddled with damage.
The sheriff’s office said gunfire erupted outside the home late Tuesday night. Locke said he returned home with his family and found his home had been shot at by a “madman.”
The sheriff’s office confirmed Locke’s home was hit by between 30-50 bullets during the shooting. Damage was found to the exterior of the home, to the vehicles parked outside, and some damage inside the home.

In April 2024, Locke claimed someone left a trailer full of burning bibles outside his church.
Locke recently appeared here when he declared that people in wheelchairs lack faith in God.
A regular speaker at QAnon conferences, he earned national ridicule in 2022 when he complained that he was getting dildos in the mail after “exposing” six witches among his congregation.
As you may recall, a gay couple shouting “hail Satan” crashed Locke’s book burning in February 2022 and claimed to have thrown a bible onto the bonfire.
Locke was banned by Twitter back in 2021 but he’s since returned with Elon Musk’s approval.
He first appeared on JMG in 2020 when he threatened to kick in the teeth of a teen Dunkin’ Donuts employee for asking him to wear a mask in the store.
Shortly afterwards, Christian sites reported that Locke had been cheating on his wife with a much younger church secretary. He and his wife then divorced and he married his mistress.
