The Full Story
Genesis Church
Genesis has a rich history of ministry in the Tri-Cities!
1993
Genesis FWB Church opened its doors on June 1, 1993 at a store front location on Keith Road,
Bristol, Tennessee under the direction of Rev. Jennings Dotson. Prior to its launch, several months of pre-planning was competed with a
small group of 12 people who were the original Charter Members. Today, 7 of those members
are still active.
1994
After a year of stability and growth, Genesis Church purchased a church building located at 1806
Kentucky Avenue, Bristol, Tennessee. While here, the church elected Rev. Doug McCracken for the roll of Associate Pastor, a position he served faithfully until his death in 2014.
2004
In 2004, the church made a bold move and purchased property in Kingsport, Tennessee, where it resides today. Rev. Dotson served here until his retirement in 2012.
