Personal note from Dave:

"My desire is to please the Lord daily as a Spirit-filled Christian, husband, father, church consultant and Pastor. My passion is to live for Jesus and to exalt His name in all I do. My burden is to exalt the Savior, evangelize the lost, edify the saints and equip the committed to do God's will."
"My support for Tom Long comes from a deep conviction that God has singularly blessed him with gifts and talents in worship and praise. I have observed his life for the last 10 years and I am amazed to see his maturity and passion in his personal walk with the Lord Jesus Christ."
"He is a man among men. He is uniquely called by the Lord. He is a continual encouragement to me and many others because of his servant spirit and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit's promtings."
