Journey Together

You Belong Here!

Thank you for being a part of our service. We are honored that you chose to spend your Sunday morning with us. If you have any questions, we would love to help!

Our Beliefs

  • The Bible is completely inspired by God, and serves as our authoritative guide for faith and practice.

    2 Timothy 3:15-17; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Peter 1:21

  • There is only One True God, known as the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and Holy Spirit.

    Deuteronomy 6:4; Matthew 28:19;
    2 Corinthians 13:14; John 14:16-17

  • Jesus is God’s Son, both completely man and completely God.

    Matthew 1:23; Hebrews 7:26; 1 Corinthians 15:3; Matthew 28:6; Acts 1:11

  • Humanity’s sin has separated us from God, and the only way to restore the relationship is forgiveness offered through Jesus Christ, making us right before God and leading us on a life-long path to God.

    Romans 5:12-19; Luke 24:47; Titus 3:5-7

  • There are two ways from the Bible that show our commitment to Christ that we should absolutely follow:  Water Baptism after Salvation, and Participating in Holy Communion.

    Mark 16:16; Acts 10:47-48; 1 Corinthians 11:26

  • The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a free gift for all believers that will give them strength to live life as a witness of Jesus Christ.

    Acts 1:8, 2:4, 19:1-7

  • There is one Holy Universal Church that has a mission to evangelize the world, disciple followers of Christ, worship God, and provide Christlike works of compassion to all.

    Mark 16:15-16; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Ephesians 4:11-16; James 1:27

  • Jesus will return, judge the world, and begin a time of eternal relationship with those who follow Him and eternal separation from those who choose not to follow.

    1 Thessalonians 4:16-17; Revelation 20:11-13; 2 Peter 3:13

Our Pastors

Josh & Brittani O’Connor

 
 

Pastor Josh O’Connor has served in church ministry for the past decade with much of his experience pastoring the next generation (and their families). Josh served on the staff of Victory Church in Lakeland, Florida as the NextGen Pastor for the 10 years before assuming the role of lead pastor of Greenville First in September of 2018. Brittani served as an elementary teacher and adjunct professor before joining the team full time.

Josh and Brittani love to reach the lost by loving people where they are and striving to point them to Jesus. They both grew up in Greenville First and their hearts are so full serving the people of Greenville.

They love to spend time with their boys, travel, explore new restaurants, and enjoy college football. Just keep them in your prayers…they are a divided house when it comes to those South Carolina teams!

 

OUR RESPONSIBILITIES

  • We are personally responsible for bringing "THE ONE" to Jesus.

  • We are a community, place, and people of hospitality.

  • We desire, pursue, and prioritize the power, presence, and person of the Holy Spirit.

  • We recognize our place within our community to be salt and light.

  • We believe it is our responsibility to live generously as a body and as a church.

  • We recognize that there is always a generation behind us and it is our responsibility to pass the baton the right way at the right time.

  • We are responsible for building more and better disciples.
