David is an incessant learner, always interested in discovering something new about the world, others, himself, and especially God. Youth and adult spiritual formation, new member integration, and administration are some of the ways that he enjoys participating in God’s reordering of our lives both individually and together. He also enjoys learning with the students at the NW Campus of Gateway Seminary as an adjunct instructor in theology and history. His wife Kristen loves literary, musical, and dramatic stories, both as an author and as a performer. David, Kristen, and their daughters Lily and Ella can often be found discovering the world in the big outdoors or in the small text of a good book. 

David and Lei met in graduate school while studying Clinical Psychology and were married prior to graduating with their doctoral degrees. After getting saved, David went on to obtain an MDiv with a focus on apologetics from Veritas Evangelical Seminary. David serves as the church’s Director of Evangelism and Missions, working with missions leaders both here in Clark County and around the world. In his free time he enjoys running, playing tennis, and attending musicals and plays.

She currently serves as the Prayer Coordinator at The Gathering Place.
