Life took a decisive turn when, at 35, he became a follower of Jesus Christ—a shift that would shape everything to come. For 25 years, David was active at Brethren Bible Chapel in Scarborough, serving ten of those years as an elder. At the same time, he ran a thriving audiovisual integration business in Toronto, equipping universities, law firms, and financial institutions with cutting-edge commun
ication technology. In 2006, David launched Bus Stop Bible Studies, a national outreach that placed Scripture-based messages on public transit systems across Canada—it’s estimated that those messages were seen more than 1.25 billion times, each offering the hope of God’s Word. He also served as Board Chair for Daystar Native Christian Outreach on Manitoulin Island for a decade.
“Retired” in name only, David and his wife Wendy host guests at their award-winning Airbnb in Muskoka, Ontario—recognized as Ontario’s Most Hospitable Hosts in both 2021 and 2023. The man who once failed English in school has since discovered a calling he never expected: writing. To date, David has authored six original titles and published six group study guides. He is also passionately working on a lifelong project to “translate” the entire library of C.S. Lewis into everyday English—seven volumes completed and counting, three of which became Amazon bestsellers. Yet among all his work, he considers STOP BEING WEIRD - BE NEW TESTAMENT NORMAL to be his most important book to date: a heartfelt call for the Church to recapture the simplicity, clarity, and power of the early believers. David writes with warmth, clarity, and an unwavering desire to help people grasp timeless truths in a language they can understand.
