Dave Drury

Ever met somebody that is like super creative? Like they can't sit in a chair during a big board meeting because their mind is hindered. Somebody who with everything they say just changes the direction of a decision because of the carefully thought out idea, and eloquantly given presentation, thats Dave. Dave has been my mentor, off and on, for four or so years. He is an extremely talented writer, a gift that stems from a very creative nature. Something that I have always found very impressive about Dave is his consistancy. Everything he says he's going to do he does, and does well. He is somebody that I have messed up for on a consistant basis, and just stays with me. Loyalty is somehting that is so important to me, and you can see with what I have told you how his character would be something I value. He is one of the two pastors at the church that really pushes my growth, that challenges me, and gives me space for my creativity. I so very deeply appreciate that in him. Something about Dave that I hope to assimilate into my own life is his gravity toward simplicity. He is somebody that has made a consistant effort to make his life simple. Blue shirts, no cell phone, he just seeks after God, and cares for his family. Such a great model.
