Dr. David E. Owen was saved at the age of eight and then God called him to preach at the age of thirteen. He has pastored churches in Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia. He also served for several years as an itinerate evangelist.
His hope is that through the preaching of God's word, both saved and lost people will be pointed to the Lord Jesus Who alone can meet the needs of their hearts.
As a believer and a preacher, David wants to continue growing "in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 3:18).
A native of Brevard, North Carolina, David has had opportunities to preach throughout the southeastern United States as well as overseas. He has also been a contributing writer for several sermon periodicals and a teacher in a couple of Bible college settings.
He and his wife Angela have been married since 1988, and they are the parents of two sons, Samuel and Jonathan.
