Pastor Gregory Dyson's Philosophy of ministry is to serve God with “Eternity in Mind”. That Philosophy is lived out in four areas:

W orship - Honoring God

I nstruction - Teaching others and being a continual learner

F ellowship - Spending time with others in the body of Christ

E xpression of Faith - By way of evangelism and discipleship

Greg married his college sweetheart, Gina, and for the last 22 years they have been living and laughing together. Gina and Greg enjoy raising their three daughters and consider themselves parental experts now that they have a teenager in the house (smile).

Greg is the founder and the Executive Director of the Lion’s Den Youth Outreach Center. The Lion’s Den is a youth center designed to reach out to unchurched youth with the truth of Jesus Christ. A graduate of Word of Life Bible Institute, he holds a BA in Bible from Cedarville University and is completing an MS in Organizational Leadership from Philadelphia Biblical University. Greg speaks at regional men’s, singles and youth conferences and consults with local churches, businesses and colleges in the Greater Springfield, MA area.

Pastor Greg has served on an Admissions advisory board for Cedarville University and has also served as a faculty member of the Institute of Revival and Awakening at Yale University and serves on the staff of Springfield College as the Associate Protestant Chaplain and for 3 years hosted a weekly kingdom focused radio show, www.Godlygoods.com.

Greg enjoys expositional preaching, riding his Honda Goldwing 1100cc Motorcycle and seeing lives forever changed by truths found in the word of God and the God of the word.
