Selah is an intentional pause in worship to reflect on the goodness and greatness of God. During these three days in September, we will provide you with a unique opportunity to step back, pause, and ponder the incredible work of God in your life through thoughtful teaching, dynamic worship, authentic fellowship, and lots of free time to rest and reconnect with the God who loves you and wants to fill you up.

Planter/Lead Pastor
Celebration Community Church
Gregg and his wife, Heidi, both grew up in southern Minnesota. Starting out as junior high sweethearts, they now have completed 42 years of marriage, blessed with three children and nine grandchildren.
After completing a B.A. and M.Div. at Bethel, Gregg and Heidi relocated to Hudson, Wisconsin in 1984 to plant Faith Community Church. Gregg served as its Lead Pastor for 20 years before moving to Florida to help launch Vision360 in 2005. In the process, he relaunched Celebration Community Church in Celebration, Florida and has served as its Lead Pastor ever since.
Gregg’s convictions include the need for churches to be theologically-driven. The power to convert and transform spiritually dead people to living followers of Christ lies in the Word of God faithfully taught in ways that are conversant with our culture.
Through the years, he has also served as a youth pastor, adjunct seminary preaching professor, church planting coach, and all-around sports enthusiast.
