Greg Stier is the Founder and President of Dare 2 Share Ministries. Greg has a reputation for knowing and relating to today's teenagers in unique and effective ways. Because of his 20+ years in youth ministry, Greg is widely viewed as an authority on teen issues and adolescent spirituality. Over the course of the last 20 years, Greg has spoken to over a million Christian teenagers and adults in major venues across the United States and heard countless stories of their struggles and triumphs. 
 
Greg's commitment to mobilizing teenagers to reach their generation for Christ is rooted in the transforming power of the gospel. Raised in a violent, inner-city family of body-builders, he never had a dad and never felt like he measured up because his biceps weren't big enough! But one by one, he saw his tough, urban family of "thugs" come to know Christ. And that ignited a passion in Greg to see all lost people come to know Jesus. 
 
Greg has authored several books and evangelism training curricula. He and his wife, Debbie, live in the Denver area and have two children.

My name is Greg. I'm a husband, a father, a preacher, an author, a twitchy revolutionary and a fanatic for Jesus.

I love my wife, my kids, and my God (not in that order!)

Give me Starbuck's coffee, wi-fi, time at the park with my kids, a movie-dinner night with my wife and I'm a happy man.

What makes me mad? Lukewarm Christians, bad theology and passionless churches. 
What makes me furious? Horrible Christian drivers with stupid Christian bumper stickers 
What makes me happy? Jesus (the real Jesus that is), Java, arenas full of teenagers and vacations with the fam.

Hobbies: Movie watching, telling stories and working out just enough to not get fat and be almost semi-quasi buff.

Sports: Golfing? Tried it and no! I can't afford the balls (lost 20 in one round and got a score of 165 and stopped counting. True story) Basketball? Football? Baseball? No. No. No. Is preaching a sport? Please say yes.

Special Talents: I can work numchucks and do a killer fake throw up (not all at the same time)

Background: I don't come from a church going, pew sitting, hymn singing religious family. I come from a tough urban family filled with bodybuilding, tobacco chewing, beer drinking thugs and that's just the women (my signature line!) One by one my tough, urban family members were led to Christ and transformed. The impact that Jesus had on all my uncles, aunts and cousins touched my heart so much that from the time I was elevenish I knew that I was going to be a preacher someday'tadaaa! Praise God!
