For me, one of the most inspiring Biblical images is how Matthew sums up the preaching and teaching of Jesus, “From that time on Jesus began to preach, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.’” Matthew 4:17 (NIV) Think about it, the possibility of living life from a heavenly perspective, with an eternal influence on everyone around me. At the core, this is what we want our lives and our church family-life to be about.
I believe life has only three great pursuits:
Loving God,
Loving God’s People, and
Loving the people God Loves.
Such a life-style is not an easy way to live. Nor is it a cheap way to live. It is certainly not a casual way to live. However, considering all other alternative ways of living each day, such a life cannot be anything but a daily adventure filled with the confident hope of significance.
I invite you to join us in this great adventure. Let me know what you think.

Minister of Music email: wsmith@fbc-greenbrier.org
“I want to spend my life serving God and serving Him through music.” This is the conviction I felt in my heart when, as a teenager, I was seeking God’s direction for my life. Now I am fulfilling that calling … serving God through ministry to His Church using the gifts and abilities God has giving me. I believe music was given to man for the worship of God. No other medium leads us to worship intellectually, emotionally and physically as effectively as music. No other medium helps us to internalize Scripture and sound Christian doctrine as effectively as music. And no other medium breaks down stubborn resistance to the love of God as effectively as music. It is a gift of God.
