David grew up in Huntington Beach and has attended Calvary Baptist his entire life. However, it wasn’t until he was seventeen that he came to faith in Christ after hearing the Word faithfully preached week after week. In 1985 he married Sheri, a fellow member of Calvary, and has been blessed with three children and six grandchildren. After high school, David worked as a machinist in his family’s business for over 30 years. David earned a B.A. (2007) and M.A. (2010) in Philosophy from Cal State Long Beach, and currently works as a lathe production supervisor for a manufacturer in Irvine, CA.
