Above everything else Dave is a pastor-teacher. In 1973 he sat together with about sixteen others in a small town thirty miles southwest of Dallas. These sixteen wanted someone to simply open up the pages of Scripture on a Sunday morning, help them to hear the truth, and then train them on how to live it in the marketplace. Dave is still their pastor and Midlothian Bible Church has grown into a mature church. The Spirit of God has used this church family to generate several other churches in the southwest section of Dallas.
He received both his Th M and Th D from Dallas Seminary and is an adjunct faculty member for the Seminary. Dave speaks regularly for Bible Conferences and in many foreign countries. Dave's greatest joy is his wife, Mary, their eight children (counting spouses) and eight grandkids. His life goal is to communicate God's truth through the power of the Spirit in practical, and skillful ways. Since 1973 Dave has faithfully pastored in Midlothian and through Truth Encounter we invite you to join us for his unique depth, passion, and practicality. This Bible teaching is rooted in solid study but lives in the office, classroom, and ball field.
