Dr. Josh Firey

Senior Leader

Josh is known around Grace Hills for the way he genuinely cares about people and believes that every person can have a real, life-giving relationship with Jesus. He loves teaching the Bible in practical and understandable ways so people are empowered and emboldened to see their lives radically changed by God. He often says that we don’t want people to just know about God, but we want people to know God and how simple it is to follow Him.

Josh has PhD in Systematic Theology, as well as master’s degree in divinity and a master’s degree in theology. He has served in ministry for about two decades and has a long history of loving and empowering people. 

He and his wife Casey love being rooted in the community of Grace Hills and are simply focused on seeing what God can do when they pour their hearts, energy, and lives into a community for Him.
