About
My name is David Daniels and I am happily married to Lois. We have 3 children, all married, and one grandson.
Entering pastoral ministry in 1970 and ordained as a Baptist minister in 1973, I have invested my life in vocational Christian ministry. From 1970-2002, I was privileged to lead congregations in the U.S.A. (Vermont), England (Peterborough) and Canada (Nova Scotia & Ontario). My ministry experience includes planting a congregation, merging two congregations, helping establish a daughter work and assisting a congregation deeply hurt by pastoral failure.
From August, 2002 through September, 2009 I led the ministry of The Toronto Jewish Mission which operates as New Covenant Forum. On October 1, 2009 I began serving as Pastor of Grace Baptist Church, Richmond Hill, Ontario. I am a conservative evangelical with a baptist ecclesiology and a reformed soteriology.
My formal theological training includes certificates and degrees from the following Canadian institutions.
Diploma (1970) - New Brunswick Bible Institute
M.T.S. (1993) - Central Baptist Seminary (now Heritage Seminary)
M.Min (1999) - Briercrest Seminary
I have always enjoyed reading and writing, and combining the two in this blog provides great enjoyment. Hopefully you will find something worthwhile as your peruse my site.
