The Journey of Pastor Jeremy J. Glenn
Senior Pastor, Spirit of Inspiring Love Church
Pastor Jeremy J. Glenn has spent his life immersed in the church, music, and ministry. Raised in West Texas, he began his spiritual journey as a child at Alexander’s Temple, Church of God in Christ. At just four years old, he discovered his love for rhythm when his grandparents gifted him his first drum set. By age five, he was already playing drums with precision and became the official drummer for his church.
His passion for music grew throughout middle and high school, where he participated in marching bands, concert ensembles, and orchestras. By sixteen, he was serving in leadership on the drum line, an experience that taught him responsibility, discipline, and the importance of leading by example. His musical talent earned him a scholarship to study Music Performance and Education at West Texas A&M University.
While his path could have gone in many directions, Pastor Glenn credits his early church foundation and lessons in leadership with keeping him grounded. Though he acknowledges mistakes and challenges along the way, those formative experiences shaped his character and deepened his appreciation for God’s grace.
At the age of 24, Pastor Glenn was baptized and committed to a deeper walk with Christ. Together with his wife, he made a covenant to keep Christ at the center of their relationship. They began daily devotionals, sharing scriptures and sermon notes, and hosting weekly Bible studies that grew to include family and friends. Their commitment to faith soon became a cornerstone of their home and family life.
In 2004, Pastor Glenn first felt a stirring to lead a ministry—well before online ministry platforms became widespread. He carried that vision for years, until in 2011, the Lord confirmed his call to ministry. Over the next 17 years, he faithfully served under the leadership of Pastor Rickey G. Rush at the Inspiring Body of Christ Church in Dallas, Texas. During this time, he gained invaluable experience in church leadership, biblical teaching, and serving people from diverse walks of life. Pastor Glenn remains deeply grateful for the mentorship and wisdom he received during those years of preparation.
In 2021, after much prayer and seeking God, Pastor Glenn officially founded Spirit of Inspiring Love Church. The church name reflects its mission and is built on the acronym S.O.I.L., inspired by Jesus’ Parable of the Soils in Matthew 13:1–23. S.O.I.L. represents “good ground,” a church established in faith, rooted in love, and dedicated to cultivating spiritual growth.
At Spirit of Inspiring Love Church, the vision is clear: “Come grow with us in the SOIL.” It is a place where believers are encouraged to grow in God’s Word, deepen their faith, and embody Christ’s love. Pastor Glenn embraces his calling with humility and conviction, knowing God has prepared him for this season of ministry. His passion is to inspire, equip, and help others grow in their journey with Christ while building the Kingdom of God.
“This journey is all about growth. God desires that we never stop growing—whether in His Word, in our faith, or in our love for one another. It is my honor to serve as a vessel for such a time as this.”
Sincerely,
Pastor Jeremy J. Glenn
