Dave

Berg

Dave grew up in a family who prayed to God out of tradition.  One day his neighbors, who were Jehovah’s Witnesses, shared their faith with Dave who started attending their church.  “They were the first ones to tell me I had worth,” says Dave.  Soon he started attending United Church of Christ in Chicago.  The pastor visited him at home and invited him to play guitar for some of the services, which meant a lot to Dave.  Today Dave and his family attend Naazrene Church where he serves on the board, plays on the worship team and sings in the choir.  “My commitment to the Lord didn’t happen in an instant; it took place over time,” says Dave.  “I’ve been blessed; I’ve been surrounded by God’s messengers at important junctures in my life.’
