Dave Long, Pastor
I was born in South Hadley, MA into a Catholic family.  I was never very religious as a child, but after I moved with my family to Pleasanton, CA I became involved with Young Life and trusted Christ at one of their summer camps called Woodleaf.  In college at Cal Poly (Pomona) I joined a Bible study led by Campus Crusade for Christ where I learned how to pray, share my faith, have quiet times, study the Bible, and lead others to Christ. 

My wife, Daneen, was born and raised in San Bernardino, CA.  We met at college and got married soon after we graduated.  We then started in ministry with Athletes in Action, a ministry to college athletes and professional athletes near Cincinnati, OH.  While there we helped to plant and eventually became an assistant pastor at North Cincinnati Community Church. 

I completed my Masters of Divinity degree from Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, MS, in May 2000.  My first pastorate was at Grace Presbyterian in Montgomery, AL.  In September 2003 we moved to Sanger to pastor the church here.  I am currently working on the thesis to complete my doctorate from New Geneva Theological Seminary in Colorado Springs, CO.

I was born and raised in Stockton California.  My grandparents on my father’s side were church planting pastors for the Church of God.  As a child I attended church but came to have a real relationship with Christ when I attended California State University at Fresno.  I am married to a wonderful man (Ed Besoyan) and have two great boys, Matthew and Michael.  I consider my position at SCC as a blessing from God and very much enjoy and love the people here.
