About Pastor Greg

Pastor Greg Blake

Greg was born in south central West Virginia and, from there, acquired his love for bluegrass and mountain-flavored music. He moved to Kansas City to attend bible college at the Kansas City College and Bible School. There he met Tracey Barlow from Tulsa, OK and married her one week after graduation. God has blessed them with 20 years of marriage, two great kids - Trent, a teenage basketball fanatic, and Alayna, a young, prospective spy - and a 'scruffy' dog named Maggie.

Tracey is a health care professional. She has been in physical therapy nearly 20 years. Greg received further ministerial training in Kansas City at both, the Nazarene and the Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminaries. He has been a church planter, a Bible college professor, a pastor, a Christian school principal, as well as serving in different denomination-wide positions.

Greg has also been a professional musician - being nominated for and winning several awards and recognitions at the state and national levels. When he's not working on a sermon or a bible study curriculum, or an administrative task, he enjoys a round of golf or pickin' his old flat-top guitar.
