Cliff & cindi kirkland
Lead Pastors (Douglas campus)
Pastor Cliff is the Bishop and Visionary of this ministry! He was a member of Southern Gospel award-winning group “The Kirklands”, alongside his father, Mann, his mother, Janie Ruth, & his sister,Gina. Pastor Cliff's testimony is like no other; he was a 16 year crack cocaine addict. He has stated many times that it was his family’s ministry and the stern yet loving guidance of his father that has made him into the man he is today, along with the help of a loving Savior. Today he celebrates over 16 years of sobriety! He is Saved, Sanctified, full of the Spirit, and leading souls to Jesus Christ! Pastor Cliff has the biggest heart, he is the most genuine, loving person you can meet! We're so thankful to have him, his wonderful Wife/First Lady Cindi, & little Kyler Luke in our lives! One of Pastor Cliff's favorite pieces of wisdom to share is: “If He Can Do It For Me, He Can Do It For You!”

David & justice Smith
lead pastors (nashville campus)
Pastor David is the Lead Pastor of our Campus in Nashville, GA. At the age of 16, he gave his heart to Christ and hasn’t stopped pursuing Jesus since! At age 18, the Lord called him to be Youth Pastor at SGM Douglas, where he and his lovely wife, Justice, served for seven years. In 2021, God opened the door for us to plant another location in Nashville, where Pastors David and Justice have served for three years. It is no surprise that Pastor David is preaching the gospel; for many years, his grandpa preached the Word and prayed that his family would be saved and would work for the Lord. Though he holds his heritage close to his heart, he still blazes his own path in the kingdom of God! Pastor David is a dreamer, very optimistic, and has high expectations for what the future holds in this ministry. We’re honored and thankful to have Pastor David, Sister Justice, and little Callie Jo as a part of the SGM family!
