Dave Johnson

Dave comes to us from Northern California after spending over 31 years there. He's married (24+years) to his childhood sweetheart, Lisa. They have a daughter at ASU...(Brittany-Freshman), one at University of Central Florida (Kayla-Sophomore yr) and one married off (Melissa married Toby Farmer on 8/1/08 and blessed us with our first Grand Boy this past year 6/20/09). Dave has been a Financial Planner for the past 22 years and still owns his wealth management firm [www.jcgwealth.com] back in California. Dave brings to the team a lot of experience in the business world as well as serving in the past as worship pastor, youth pastor, and executive pastor, just not all at the same time. In his spare time he loves to run and work out. Dave has a Bachelor Degree in Business and has done graduate work at Trinity Seminary. His goal in teaching at the Crossing is to help cultivate Christ followers that really love God and are fully satisfied in Him.

Adam Harward

Adam was born and raised in a small town in the redwood forests of Northern California. By the time he graduated high school, he was tired of the rain and clouds, so he moved to Tucson. This move also gave him the opportunity to help plant The Crossing. For several years, Adam has served as one of our teaching pastors while he completed his English degree at the U of A. He is now attending the Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC. He is hoping to learn how to actually be a pastor so he can stop making it up as he goes along. Adam enjoys many diverse hobbies, but he currently spends most of his time doing things like reading and studying and memorizing and writing and translating. Adam hopes to visit us regularly while he is in seminary, so keep an eye out for him.

Favorite Movie: Braveheart and Good Will Hunting, recently Hot Fuzz and The Departed. 
Favorite Food: Homemade anything (if you cook it, I will like it). 
Favorite Music: I like pretty much everything, but Sherwood (www.sherwoodmusic.net) is crazy good.
