Gateway ChurchTallahassee, FL David and Alana Hartz After being raised in a non-Christian home and becoming a successful alternative heath care practitioner for over 10 years, an encounter with God dramatically changed his life, altering his direction forever. Answering a call to ministry, Pastor David engaged in studies at and through Trinity Theological College and Seminary, and was ordained in June of 2002. He served for 2 and half years as a teaching pastor at Agape Life Fellowship before being called to seek the Lord for his next direction. The Lord led Pastor David to start praying for the city in his home. People started coming to experience the presence of God and hear a relevant word that connected the Old and New Testaments together. This group of believers became the genesis of what would become Gateway Church. In 2006 the Lord placed a burden for those that did not know the joy and adventure of a life committed to God into his heart. This passion to see a church that is more concerned with relationship with God than big business of the modern American church was the catalyst of the planting of Gateway Church. |
