John Brown, pastor of Denia Community Church, was the guest speaker. He is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin and Dallas Theological Seminary.
While John has always had ties to the academic community, this fall is especially meaningful — he and his wife Ngoc sent their daughter off to college.
