Pastor Seth Brisker was raised in Circleville, OH and grew up in a Methodist Church. He felt the call to ministry from an early age as a Middle Schooler but spent his High School years pursuing his own plans and desires. It was not until a revival service during his first semester at Ohio Christian University that Seth surrendered his life fully over to the call God had placed on him. While attending college, Seth met Kelsey and the two began to serve in music ministry together and built their relationship around serving the church. Seth and Kelsey got married in 2015 and have strived to use their marriage for the glory of God. Together, they have two children. The Briskers moved to Athens County in 2021 and Seth became the pastor of New Beginnings Church (Athens First Church of God) on April 2, 2023. Since that time, Pastor Seth has led the church through various stages of updates, including changing the name to CommonHouse, in order to prepare for the new season of ministry God has called us to.
