GROUP FOUNDER      Jeff Sneed is a recognized community leader and business owner. Jeff also serves as the President of the Kentucky State Gospel Singing Convention, which promotes Southern Gospel music throughout the state of Kentucky, and is a member of the Woodmen of the World.        Jeff also hosts the popular television program, The Glory Bound Jubilee, which can be seen across the South Central KY region.        In May of 1973, Jeff experienced the Saving grace of the Lord.. At just 9 years old, at an old 3 room schoolhouse, Jeff's dad, Bro. Floyd Sneed, a baptist preacher, and Bro. Carroll Medley were holding a revival meeting. After the preaching that night,  Jeff felt something that he had never felt before, Holy Spirit conviction. As Jeff tells in his own words "I began to cry, and not wanting to deceive or hinder me, my dad came and just asked "Son, are you sick?" Yes, I was sick, but it was not a physical sickness, but a spiritual sickness. I clearly remember sliding two old folding chairs apart and began to call upon God. Then two of my friends also went to the altar and they were saved before me that night. The devil tried to make me believe that God was not going to save me. It was then, in a split second, that God touched my heart with His hand of love. "      In 1982, Jeff started his Gospel music journey with the founding of “Glory Bound.” A group of four young men just out of High School. Twenty seven years later, the journey continues as Jeff sings with his wife Pam, daughter Amanda, her fiancé Caleb Cowan and Jeff’s sons Jacob and Seth. Together, they form “The Sneed Family.”    Considered by many to be the cornerstone of the group, Pam Sneed is a role model to many today. As a proud mother, Pam has raised three wonderful children, home schooling each child to ensure that they receive a quality education.      In July of 1973, As Jeff's Dad was preaching at a brush arbor meeting, Pam was saved by the Lord's grace. Several years later, Jeff's Dad started pastoring Lawrence Chapel Baptist Church in Barren Co., Ky, and Pam and her parents started attending and joined the church there. It was there, that over the next few years Jeff realized he had met the love of his life. In April of 1985 Pam and Jeff were married.    She and Jeff have now been married for 24 years, and during those years, Pam has continually provided the group with stirring and powerful vocals, and has been a cornerstone for her family,      Amanda, sings for the group, and is a talented and accomplished mandolin player. She has traveled with the group all her life, and made her first recording at age 4. She became a full time member of the group at the age of 9, singing harmony. Amanda was saved at age 14, and tells her experience of salvation was at a local Glasgow church, while singing the song "He's Alive". She was inspired to sing at a very early age by listening to the unique voices of Vestal Goodman and Dolly Parton.          Caleb, brings with him much experience in Southern Gospel Music. Caleb sang with Naomi and The Segos for 4 years before joining the group. While with Naomi,he was with the Gaither Homecoming Tour appearing all across the nation. Also during his ministry with Naomi Sego he recorded 5 albums, was nominated two years in a row for "Favorite Baritone" and one year for "Excelling Individual". Naomi and The Segos were also involved with the 2004 Dove Award Nomination of "Mansion Over The Hilltop" tribute to Ira Stamphill. Caleb has performed on the National Quartet Convention main stage with one of the highlights of his career singing for former President Jimmy Carter for President Carter's special Father's Day Celebration in Plains, Georgia. However, the greatest highlight of his stay with Naomi came one day after realizing that  as a child he had been baptized into the Baptist church , but that he did not have a born again experience with God. Then one day while singing the song "Sinners Prayer" with Naomi, it was then that a rebirth took place within his Heart.  Ever since Caleb has been able to not only sing but to feel each song within his soul which is expressed to the audience each time that he sings.           At the age of 15, Seth plays the guitar for the group, and also joins in to sing solo and harmony parts on many songs with the group. Seth has traveled to each singing since he was a week old. Some of his inspiration to sing came after meeting Howard and Vestal Goodman at the National Quartet Convention. He made his first recording that the age of 5, and at age 10 began playing guitar full time with the group. He has recently shown interest in the banjo and harmonica, and is an avid fan of Ricky Skaggs and Randy Travis. Seth was saved in 2008, at a Revival service in Jeff and Pam's home.          Jacob at age 10 plays drums for the group. He currently plays the bass for our home church and on some songs with the group, and sings some songs with his brother and sister backing him up. Jacob made his first recording at age 1 by "laughing and goo-gooing" at the end of a song "Little Feet", and later recorded "Church in The Wildwood" at age 4.
