Married in 1987, David and Chera felt called to the Treasure Valley, and pioneered Harvest Life Church in 1993.
A graduate from Christ For The Nations Institute in Dallas, Pastor David shares an encouraging message from the scriptures that is relevant and easy to understand. His personal testimony with Jesus is a source of hope to all people that no matter where you find yourself in life, God is on your side and can help you overcome.
Raised as a “PK” (pastors kid), Pastor Chera began her personal relationship with Jesus at a very young age. She is still passionate about Jesus and about growing as an individual and as a leader. Her liberating message is one that enables people to rise above their old mindsets and to begin to be transformed into the person God created them to be.
David and Chera love bike riding, traveling and riding their motorcycle on a day off. Together they have traveled to more than 30 nations, teaching and preaching to leaders and congregations their inspiring message of grace.
Together we serve as part of the administrative team. We have been a part of Harvest Life Church for almost 15 years! We are passionate about building the culture of Harvest Life Church and want to see God's kindom and people flourish in their giftings.

Hello! We have been together since high school and have 5 beautiful kids. We are passionate about showing every child the love God has for them. We strive for every child to have a safe and comfortable environment while having fun learning about Jesus! We, along with our team, are so excited every service to take the Word of God and bring it down to a level that the kids are able to understand. It is a blessing and honor to be able to teach the future!

Hello church family! At every service, we want kids to learn about Jesus throughout the Bible while having fun in a safe and clean environment. Whether its through worship, prayer, games, Bible study, small group dicussions, skits, or otherwie, we want all children to learn about God's great love for them and others! Isaiah 55:11 (NLT) is alive in our hearts! "It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it."
