Greg and his wife, Denise, have been married 25 years. They have two children: son, Jonathan and daughter, Piper.
Up Front Ministries is a non-denominational, family focused, Christian ministry that is multifaceted in scope, including pastoral counseling, recording studio and live sound consulting, music outreach, praise & worship leading, as well as, Biblical mentoring. The ministry is under the oversight of Pastor Greg Haage, who is an Ordained minister, worship leader, psalmist, author, Christian recording artist and accomplished professional musician with 26 years of studio, sound engineering, radio production and live performance experience. After years of nightclub and studio tent making, Greg went into full-time ministry in 1995.
Denise, Greg's wife, is a Level-4 Sign Language Interpreter. She exemplifies a Proverbs 31 woman.
Jonathan works at Five Oaks Church in Woodbury as the Associate Worship Arts Director. His new wife, Stephanie, is an Elementary Education Teacher.
Piper is in Hotel Management.
Pastor Greg is a licensed Pastoral Counselor with over 12+ years of experience. He addresses the most common--yet often-times not talked about--issues like financial goals & budgeting, the role of sex and intimacy in marriage, as well as, the need for sound doctrine that is so lacking in today's church. His promotion of the Gospel with truth, freedom, and joy, along with other new ministers being raised up, brings a "fresh, new voice" and wind of change to ministry.
One part of UP FRONT's ministry is working with and training musicians, singers and songwriters to become more skillful in their giftings, as well as, discipling them in their Christian walk. In church applications, he is a consultant in purchasing sound systems, instruments and microphones. He also gives instruction in recording, in addition to training church worship teams.
Greg is also a Licensed Realtor (www.UpFrontHomes.com) and approaches that business like George Bailey in "It's a Wonderful Life" i.e. helping people in need.
