Steven & Deb Koster
The Parsonage Inn is home to the Kosters and shared with the public as a Bed & Breakfast guest house. It offers a the charm of a grand Queen Anne Victorian house built in 1882. It exists to welcome the traveler to our rich and lovely downtown Heritage Hill neighborhood and the abundance of culture Grand Rapids has to offer. Experience a bit of history with us!
The parsons behind The Parsonage Inn are the Revs. Steven and Deb Koster. They love ministry and hospitality, and have a heart for healthy marriages and families. For decades they have encouraged families to stoke the Holy Spirit’s flame at home. That vision eventually developed, in part, into opening The Parsonage Inn. Both are graduates of Calvin Theological Seminary and ordained ministers in the Christian Reformed Church. Prior to ordained ministry, Steven’s career led him through two decades of technology, communications, and community building. He formerly directed Calvin College’s media production and launched online communities and products for Avid Technologies in Boston. After seminary, he joined Back to God Ministries International as the Director of ReFrame Media in 2006, bringing a wealth of media knowledge and experience as well as a heart for outreach. Likewise, after over twenty years as a Registered Nurse, Deb founded Family Fire as a ministry of ReFrame Media. She serves as the editor, writer, and speaker for Family Fire. Deb and Steven enjoy leading marriage retreats and family seminars to encourage people in their most intimate relationships.
