After graduating from Concordia Lutheran High School in Fort Wayne, Dave spent a year with YWAM (Youth With A Mission) which took him to various parts of Mexico & Spain. After discerning his call as a Worship Leader, Dave returned to Fort Wayne and began leading worship at his home congregation, Concordia Lutheran Church. In 2003, Dave & his wife Bethany moved to Chesapeake, VA to help start a mission church. After two years, Dave returned to Fort Wayne and worked with come2go ministries as Worship & Media Arts Pastor for several years. He now leads worship, teaches & speaks at various churches and is busy writing new music and devotions about worship on his Amazed Blog.
