Keith Beasley joined our staff as our music minister October 3, 2008. He is a lifelong resident of Georgia. He graduated from Georgia Southern University in 1991 with a degree in finance. Before coming to Gum Branch, Keith was full time in the insurance and financial services industry. He had also been part-time music director for two other churches. In March of 2010, Keith answered the call from God and was ordained as a minister of the Gospel. Keith has been married to Carole since 1993 and they have two children, Hannah and Joshua.
A word from Keith: "I absolutely love to lead people in the worship of our Lord. Music is such a great tool to help focus our attention on Him and is what I want each time we meet---to worship Him---not the style of music, but HIM. As long as He gives me breath, I will worship Him in song and will lead others to do the same."
