Tom Stegall
Tom is originally from Minneapolis, MN. He was raised as a Roman Catholic and following high school attended seminary with a desire to become a priest. However, upon reading the Bible and through the testimony of a few saved friends, he came to trust in Christ alone for his salvation and was born again by God's grace in 1987. He was actively involved in the Duluth Bible Church from 1988 until 1998, where he became equipped through the accurate teaching of God's Word and the shepherding of his pastor, Dennis Rokser. At D.B.C. he met his wife Debbie, a native of Duluth, and they were married in 1997. Pastor Stegall attributes his primary preparation for pastoral ministry in Milwaukee to his decade of personal involvement in his local church in Duluth. He was further prepared by completing a five-year course of study through the Grace Institute of Biblical Studies; and he is also a graduate of the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago and the University of Minnesota in Duluth.

Rick Gerhartz
Rick was born and raised in Milwaukee, WI. He was brought up in a Catholic home, that is, until a friend of his mother’s invited he and his sister to an evangelistic outreach at her local Bible Church. In the summer of 1974 Rick was saved by God’s amazing grace. After his parents placed their faith in Christ’s finished work ten months later, they attended several Bible Churches in the Milwaukee area over the years. In 1985 Rick met his wife Katie at his place of employment and in 1986 she trusted Christ as her personal Savior; they were married in 1987. In 1995 Rick was led to be equipped for the work of the ministry, and started taking correspondence courses through a Bible Seminary, but felt it wasn’t enough. Two years later, after much prayer, Rick and Katie moved to Superior, WI to be a part of Duluth Bible Church. Together, they sat under the sound exegetical, expository teaching of Pastor Dennis Rokser. In addition, Rick was trained for six years in the Grace Institute of Biblical Studies. In 2005 Rick and his wife relocated back to the Milwaukee area to be a part of Word of Grace Bible Church.
