Rooted in Wesley. Ready for Tomorrow.
About me…
I’m a lifelong Methodist, a pastor, educator, and writer passionate about renewing the vision of Methodist education in the UK and Ireland for a new generation. With roots in both the United States and the United Kingdom, I bring a transatlantic perspective to the rich tradition of Wesleyan learning — one that forms not only the mind, but also the heart and character.
My background includes leadership in local churches, contributions to Methodist theological education, and a commitment to preserving the historic legacy of Methodist schools while reimagining their future. Whether I’m preaching in a chapel, writing a devotional, or consulting with a school board, I believe education is a sacred calling — a means of grace for individuals and communities alike.
I would love to help your school develop a fresh vision and innovative strategies to ensure it not only survives — but thrives — for generations to come.

David brings a rare blend of spiritual depth, strategic insight, and relentless hope — exactly what’s needed in this challenging moment for Christian education. He has a heart for the Gospel, a mind for innovation, and a pastor’s instinct for nurturing people and institutions into new life.

“In the time I’ve known David, I’ve come to admire his intellect, his integrity, and his deep commitment to the values that shape Methodist education at its best. We first connected through a shared love for mission and service, and our friendship has grown through our work on the American Advisory Board of Bahamas Methodist Habitat. David brings wisdom, warmth, and visionary thinking to every conversation — qualities that are rare and desperately needed in today’s educational landscape. I trust him, I value his counsel, and I believe he has an extraordinary gift for helping schools rediscover their purpose and potential.”
