Today, Greg Boyd is heading to Gateway. His family will follow sometime at the end of the year. It has been a long journey searching the man that God has for Gateway. It has been a journey of faith for us as well as Greg. Over the past two years we have interviewed many individuals, but for one reason or another God would shut the door. Then one day recently, Bill Jones (a long time member of Gateway and President of CIU) called me, he said he had a name to share with me for our Adult and Family LIFE pastor. That one phone call began the journey that led to this day. Meet Greg’s family: Josh (13), Breanna (12), Megan (16), Patty and Greg
