David has been the Director of Global Mobilization for E3 Partners for the last 4 years. In that time, E3 has been able to send over 100 people to global hub cities to catalyze over 65,000 new churches being started. David has been training and equipping Church Planters in a North America context for 12 years using Biblical, Simple and Reproducing tools. He has a heart for the Unreached People groups and those that are far from God.

He is married to Rebekah, his high-school sweetheart, and has 4 amazing and wonderful children (William, Gracie, Belle, and Noah). His heart for church planting comes from over 15 years of prayer, experience, and study in the ministry. He first began as youth pastor in Huntsville, AL and then moved on to e3 Partners to become the International Director for Students.

He also started City Church Network which began in 2011 with a vision to birth a church planting movement in Nashville, TN that would successfully spread the gospel among all refugee and immigrant communities in the city. David's hope is that someday Nashville will be known as a light unto the nations (Isaiah 49:6).
