How do we know Gene isn't just dragging the family off to Nashville to be a famous writer?

While Gene has many significant relationships in Nashville with writers, publishers, and producers, there will be no line waiting for the Reynolds' when they arrive in the city limits. There are literally hundreds of writers down in Nashville, most of whom are working second jobs just trying to make ends meat. Gene has been told by some industry folks that he has what it takes to be successful as a writer, but this has never, and hopefully never will be his goal. He settled that with God a long time ago. However, he does take his writing very seriously and realizes the better writer he becomes the more it will open doors for him to minister. For the past seventeen years, ministry has been our lives. We believe ministry will be our heart beat until our lives end. With that said, if you ever have concerns that Gene's music is taking priority over our ministry, we invite you to speak into our lives.
