In this episode of Above the Divide, Paula Dannielle and Pastor David Brown discuss the importance of unity and healing in a politically charged environment. They reflect on the recent election, the challenges of bridging divides, and the significance of Ephesians 4 in fostering community and understanding. The conversation emphasizes the need for humility and gentleness in navigating differing perspectives, recognizing that our identities and beliefs can often become intertwined with political issues. Ultimately, it underscores God's compassion and the significance of personal growth in navigating these challenges.

David grew up in the beautiful foothills of Tennessee. He later graduated from Georgia Tech with a degree in Industrial Engineering. After he encountered the Lord, he followed His call into ministry. He received his Masters of Divinity and Masters in Christian Counseling from Gordon Conwell in Charlottte, NC. Recently, he earned a Doctorate in Ministry from Portland Seminary in Leadership and Spiritual Formation. David has served in pastoral and leadership roles in several churches in the Charlotte area. He desires for all to encounter the Father’s love and be transformed into the son or daughter of God they were created to be. He and his wife, Elizabeth, have 5 lovely daughters. David enjoys board games, hiking, and curating “dad jokes” for fun.
