Pastor David and Nicholle Graham – Lead Pastor
Email: pastordave@livingway.net // nicholle@livingway.net
Pastors David and Nicholle met and married while attending Wayland Baptist University in Plainview, Texas. They have been married for 17 years and have two wonderful children Hannah and Brayden. Pastor Dave’s mother Betty rounds out the Graham’s family.
Pastor David has been in fulltime ministry for over 20 years; Pastor Nicholle and David have been ministering together for 17 years. Our pastor’s deepest desire is to “connect people to The Living God”. This is accomplished through discipleship, individual counseling, and deep relationships with the congregation unto seeing each person released into God’s great purposes for their lives. The Graham’s core belief is to always be living in the spirit of the maximum: in essentials, unity; in non-essentials, freedom; and in all things, the graciousness of our loving God.
Pastor David teaches on topics such as: Family, The Kingdom of God, God’s Purpose For You, The Dynamic Walk Of Worship, The Authority Of The Believer and much, much more. His dynamic, yet humorous style of preaching enables the congregation to laugh, yet be challenged in the midst of joy, while learning about life in Christ and God’s Plan for His People. David graduated from Wayland Baptist University in 1995 with a B.S in Theology and a double minor in World History and Church History. He continued His studies at The King’s University in Van Nuys, California completing a Masters In Divinity in 2008. David also holds a conferred Doctorate of Divinity from The American Fellowship of Colleges and Churches and an earned Doctorate of Ministry from Andersonville Theological Seminary. He is grateful for all the education the Lord has allowed Him to pursue to better Christ’s ministry calling on his life.
