Pastor Larry Basinger
Larry grew up on a small farm in China Grove, NC and graduated from Piedmont Bible College in Winston-Salem. His wife, Starla, grew up on the island of St. Lucia as a missionary kid. They have been married for 31 years and have two grown sons. Larry and Starla have been involved in youth ministry and missions for most of their married life. In addition to Church In Motion, he also serves as principal at Providence Christian Academy. Helping folks of all ages connect with their Creator and make quality life decisions are two of his most satisfying pursuits. Larry enjoys hiking, photography, gardening, and Ping-Pong when he has some spare time. Starla sings with the Asheville Choral Society, is the accompanist for the Celebration Singers of Asheville, and is an integral part of Kids In Motion. She is a constant source of encouragement and support to Larry – they make a great team
