David Hegg - Grace Baptist Church I was raised in a pastor’s family in Spokane, WA. After graduating from Los Angeles Baptist College (Now The Master’s University). I am passionate about God's Word and believe the greatest need in the church today is for pastors to preach the Bible the way it was written. That is, to recognize the beginning place of meaning is determining what the original author intended the original readers to understand from the words he used. When we get their meaning right, we can bring God's inspired truth to our world, relying on the Spirit to use it in transforming ways. Pastoring Grace Baptist Church is a great delight as the Lord continues to bless us with opportunities to expand his kingdom, and the challenges that come with them. Visit website
Shawn Thorton - Calvary Community Church He received Christ in middle school and in his early teen years stood before the congregation to announce his availability for Christian ministry. From conducting children’s bible classes, to anchoring his high school debate team, to working summers at Christian camps, God was preparing him for future pastoral and teaching roles. At the age of 30 he was invited to become the Senior Pastor of Bible Center Church in Charleston, WV—a high profile congregation in the state capital. Since 2008 he has served as Senior Pastor of Calvary Community Church in Westlake Village, CA—which now sees an attendance of about 4,000 people each Sunday and minsters effectively to the community, the state, and beyond.

Josh Thompson - Legacy City Church Pastor Josh Thompson was born and raised in Riverside, California. He grew up in a home that worshipped Jesus but Josh had never fully committed his life to the Lord. Years later during high school, he began attending a church not far from his home. One day while listening to a preacher he heard Jesus call to follow Him forever and he was never the same. Not long after his conversion, during his lunch break Josh walked across the street to hear Pastor Greg Laurie preach. From that day on he knew that Harvest was his church home. Josh began to serve in the Harvest High School Ministry and then in 2008 he began working with Harvest Crusades. Honored to sit under Pastor Greg Laurie for many years he joined his pastoral staff in March 2010. He was given the privilege to preach at Harvest Sunday Nights for 3 years and oversee a satellite campus for a few years. In 2014 the doors opened for Josh to plant a church in the Los Angeles area. Josh now serves full time as the Lead Pastor for Preaching and Vision at Legacy City Church Studio City California. Visit website
