My name is Jeff Thomas. I am a Christ follower. I believe the Word of God. I believe that I am a sinner in need of a Savior. I believe Jesus lived a perfect life, died a sacrificial death, and rose from the grave to defeat sin and death once and for all. I am not saved by works; I am saved by grace through faith in Jesus. I am thankful to God for His grace and mercy. I am thankful to God for full and eternal life that is now mine through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus!
I am married to Marty, and God has blessed us with an amazing family. Our first daughter, Hillary, passed away at four months old due to a brain tumor. However, God has given us four more beautiful children to love and raise. I am the lead pastor at Start Baptist Church, and I am blessed and thankful to work with such an incredible staff and ministry teams. I love my church family, and I love the community God has called me to serve.
I love God's Word, and I am blessed and thankful to be walking with Him. From time to time, I express my thoughts and experiences in writing. I hope this blog will be an encouragement to you, and I hope that you, too, are walking with Him.
