David McGladdery
Director of Worship and Missions
David was born and raised in Lodi California, though he has always had an affinity for Los Angeles (and their sports teams). He grew up religiously attending church, playing piano, soccer and baseball and when he began to read the Bible for himself, while attending college in Fullerton, God called him to ministry. After earning a Masters degree, with a Worship major, and being heavily influenced by the God-centered ministry of Dr. John Piper, David has followed his calling and led worship in dozens of churches in California as well as in parts of Asia and South America. His greatest joy is seeing the Holy Spirit bring people of all nations to Christ.
