ASSISTANT PASTOR, Steve Harrison

I was born in Pennsylvania and moved to Huntington Beach at the age of two. I grew up in a family that went to church pretty much every Sunday. When I was 13 years old my dad accepted Christ as his personal savior (at a family camp) in which I shortly followed. It was then that I allowed the Lord to begin His work in my life. I went to private Christian schools from 7th–10th grades then finished my High School education at Huntington Beach High School. . . Want to know more?

YOUTH PASTOR, Jeff Greshem

When I was about five I remember asking Jesus to come into my life one night while I was at home with my family. It wasn't until my junior high years that I realized Christianity wasn't just a religion but a relationship. While I was attending Calvary Chapel High School I got involved with the Jr. High Youth Group as a camp counselor and occasionally was asked to lead worship at church. In 2003 I graduated from High School and was hired at Maranatha Christian Academy as a Daycare worker and an Assistant PE Teacher. Want to know more?
