Pastor's Corner

Welcome to First Baptist Greenville online! I hope you will also visit with us in person at the corner of Cleveland and Faris, not far from Greenville's thriving downtown. The central architectural feature of our Sanctuary is a giant “tree of life” that stands nearly five stories above the floor at its highest point and whose branches reach out over the congregation's head some 100 feet. It is not merely decorative. More than half of the weight of the roof is transferred by its flying girders onto the trunk at the front of the Sanctuary. This architectural tree makes the room for all of us beneath its spreading limbs. It is a constant reminder, in the words of the psalmists, "God is our shelter and strength, a very present help in trouble" (46:1), and "the Lord is your shade at your right hand" (121:5). Join us Sunday at 9:00 (pre-service music begins at 8:45) or 11:00, as we worship God together as "A Community of Believers, Each Member a Minister."
