ABOUT
Our Story
We’re Dan and Jenna Greer—high school sweethearts from rural Colorado who’ve been doing life together for over two decades now. It didn’t start fancy. We were just two teenagers with big dreams, a whole lot of grit, and no idea how much we’d need both.
Dan noticed Jenna first (shocker), and spent two years trying to win her over. Eventually she said yes to one date—and that was all it took. From that moment on, we were in it for the long haul. We got married a year after high school, had our first child a year later, and started building a life that’s been far from perfect, but fully anchored in God’s grace.
Today, we’ve got four kids, a homestead we built with help from some incredible friends, and more life experience than we ever expected—some of it amazing, some of it brutal, and all of it used by God for good.
We’ve faced struggles in our marriage, our finances, our faith… you name it. There were times we didn’t know how we were going to get through. But every single time, God showed up. Not always how we expected, but always on time. He’s refined us through fire, grown us through storms, and reminded us again and again that when we put Him first, everything else starts to make sense—even if it doesn’t look like we thought it would.
One of Dan’s favorite things to say is: “Everything happens for a reason. We’d love to know what that reason is right now… but if we did, we probably wouldn’t learn what we’re supposed to.” That mindset has carried us through some of the hardest seasons of our lives.
God First Life Next wasn’t part of some master plan—it was a nudge. A little whisper from God that turned into one weekly devotional, then another, and then another. Before we knew it, we had people reaching out from all over the world saying how much it spoke to them.
That’s when we realized—this wasn’t just for us. This was something God wanted to use to reach others.
This ministry is built for people like us. People who love God but still wrestle with life. People who want to raise strong families, lead with integrity, and make a difference—but know they can’t do any of that without keeping their eyes on Jesus first.
We’re not perfect. We don’t pretend to be. But we’re walking this out with you. Real faith. Real life. Real hope.
And we believe if you’re here, it’s not by accident. God’s not done with your story either.
“We’re so glad you’re here. This is a place for honest faith, gritty hope, and real community. No filters. No fluff. Just people who want to live a God-first life, and trust Him with the rest.”
A NOTE FROM DAN
Hey friend,
Let me be real with you—we’re not pastors, theologians, or experts. We’re just regular folks trying to follow Jesus the best we can. We mess up. We fall short. We get it wrong more than we’d like to admit. But thank God for grace, right?
Truth is, it’s not easy to keep God first in today’s world—especially in business, leadership, or when life feels like it’s coming at you from every direction. Even when your heart is in the right place, the enemy loves to stir up doubt and whisper, “Are you sure you’re doing this for the right reasons?”
If you’ve ever felt that—welcome to the club. You’re not broken. You’re not alone. You’re just human. And you’re exactly the kind of person God uses.
We started this because we needed it just as much as anyone else. A place to refocus. To put God back in the center. To remind ourselves that we’re not in control—and that’s actually the best news ever.
So whether you’re crushing it or barely holding it together, we’re glad you’re here. Sign up for our weekly devotionals, jump into the community, and don’t be shy—share your thoughts, your struggles, and your wins. This isn’t about performance. It’s about pursuit.
God is great all the time. And all the time—yep, you already know—God is great.
Let’s live a God-first life, together.
– Dan
A NOTE FROM JENNA
Hey sweet friend,
As a mom of four (and yes—Dan absolutely counts as my fifth child some days, haha), I know firsthand the chaos, the pressure, and the constant tug-of-war between doing all the things and trying to stay centered in faith.
Some days it feels like a win just to get everyone fed and semi-clean. And don’t even get me started on the laundry pile that might be high enough to qualify as a fifth mountain in Colorado.
I’ve had moments where I’ve lost my temper, dropped the ball, or felt like I wasn’t enough. Maybe you’ve been there too. If so, I want you to hear this loud and clear: God isn’t asking for perfection. He’s asking for presence. He wants your heart—not your highlight reel.
And here’s what I’ve learned through all the mess, the noise, and the “failures” that aren’t really failures at all: God still loves me. My family still loves me. And every single day is a new chance to put Him first—even if it’s messy, late, or imperfect.
So welcome. Truly. I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’re running carpool in yoga pants, leading a business, holding a baby while folding laundry, or just trying to find five quiet minutes with Jesus—this community is for you.
You’re not alone, and you’re not invisible. You are seen, loved, and chosen.
And if you ever need to talk, pray, or just have someone say, “You’re doing better than you think”—I’m just an email away.
God’s got this. And He’s got you, too.
– Jenna
