They are excited about the freedom and growth that God is bringing to Dothan and cannot wait to see how He uses this church to make a difference in our community.

Carl Greene

CFO/Administrative Pastor

Carl has been the Administrative Pastor at Dothan First for over 19 years. Carl oversees all the ministry departments, volunteers as well as paid church staff. The joke in the office is that Carl can fix anything, and it’s true. Among his many talents are classes on marriage, parenting and leadership, design and various areas of technology, and clever and witty speaking and writing.

Carl and his family have been attending Dothan First for over 30 years. Compassionate and down to earth, Carl resides in Dothan with his wife, Nicole. They have two married daughters—Whitney, married to Gabe, they have two boys—Declan age 4 and Nolan age 2; and Hannah, married to Connor.
