Our Team

Steve Hull

Lead Pastor

Hey everybody, I’m Pastor Steve. I have been pastor at Princeton since 2018. Emily, my wife, and I have been married for 18 years and we have 5 kids: Peyton, Cohen, Ben & Elaina (our twins), and Harper. As a family we love to go camping and on other adventures. I enjoy bike riding, smoking meat in my kamado grill, playing golf (though I’m not any good) or losing all sense of time with all kinds of projects. I’m from Wisconsin, which means I am considered a cheesehead and really enjoy watching the Packers and the Brewers.

Tha Bawi

Associate Pastor

Hi everyone, I’m Tha and a husband to Len. Len and I are originally from Myanmar, and Grand Rapids has been our adopted home since 2001. My wife and I have four children: Joshua, Mikayla, Eliora, and Amia. I am one of a few seminarians who does not enjoy reading theological books much. But I love music and enjoy writing and recording music a lot. I enjoy watching food and travel channels with my family in my free time. I love all kinds of sports. My favorite sport to watch is Football(soccer), especially my favorite team Arsenal.

Steve Germany

Worship and Technology Director

Hey! I’m Steve. Although I look like Pastor Steve, we’re not related. My wife Christa and I have five kids: Gus, Garrick, Ruby, Katie, and Holly. We’ve been a part of the Princeton family since 2021. Christa is a cardiac nurse and excellent seamstress who loves to make dresses for our three girls. The Germany family flies our nerd flag high. We play Dungeons & Dragons, board games, and Minecraft. I enjoy carving wooden spoons and bowls in my spare time while listening to audiobooks and podcasts. I love leading worship at Princeton and helping to point people to Jesus!

I’m the secretary here at Princeton. I started working here in 2006 and have seen many changes while here. Princeton is like a family to me and I so enjoy being around the people, being in the evening Bible study and helping out in other places. My husband, Dave, passed in 2019, we were married for 54 years. We have two boys and 8 grandchildren and 1 great grandson. One son lives in Minneapolis and one in Ohio. I go and visit them as much as I can. My passion is painting and creating different things out of all types of material, wood, metal, antiques, etc. I am involved in crafts shows and have been for years. Going antiquing is one of my favorite pastimes also.
