Our Leadership
Brant Smith serves as the Senior Pastor of Scott Valley Berean Church, where he is committed to preaching God’s Word faithfully, shepherding with compassion, and leading the church toward gospel-centered growth. He and his wife, Meredith, have been married for 24 years—celebrating 25 years next August—and ministry has been woven into their marriage from the very beginning.For over 23 years, Brant and Meredith have served together in various ministries, investing in couples, mentoring teens and college students, and leading both men’s and women’s discipleship studies. Their passion has always been to see people grow deep in Christ and connected in authentic Christian community. In Scott Valley, they are excited to build on that foundation by strengthening marriage ministry, developing future-focused student and young adult ministries, and equipping men and women to walk faithfully with Jesus. Brant carries a strong calling to disciple and mentor men, while Meredith has a deep heart for encouraging and guiding women.Brant and Meredith are blessed with two children, Madelyn (14) and Adin (10), and they are grateful to call Scott Valley home. Their family loves serving the church and walking alongside the community God has entrusted to them.Elders
What the Scriptures say about Elders:
ACTS 14:23 – Paul and Barnabas appointed elders for them in each church and, with prayer and fasting, committed them to the Lord, in whom they put their trust. (NIV)
1 TIMOTHY 3:15 – Here is a trustworthy saying: If anyone sets his heart on being an overseer, he desires a noble task. Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him with proper respect. (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of the church?) He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgement as the devil. He must also have a good reputation with outsiders so that he will not fall into disgrace and into the devil’s trap. (NIV)
