Know Jesus, Love People
I’m David Barker, a pastor, teacher, author, coach, and speaker and presenter, called to help people know Jesus and love others more fully through my teaching, writing and blogging, and coaching for clergy and congregations.
My Long and Winding Road
My journey, more milk-run than autobahn, has taken me from the university classroom to the pulpit, and work as a teacher, pastor, author, blogger, and clergy coach. And all of it flows from my passion to help people know Jesus more deeply and love others more fully.
Credo
Commit to
love where there is hatred,
compassion where there is indifference,
forgiveness where there is judgment,
unity where there is division,
hope where there is despair
light where there is darkness.
