David Ashley is The Pastor of Pump
Living life in this world as the man God has called you to be takes the same amount of discipline as getting your body healthy. Once one becomes tolerant of his (sinful) condition, the “fat” increases, complacency sets in, and muscles that once kept you strong begin to decrease. Suddenly, atrophy sets in – challenging your stamina for Kingdom work. David knows the hard work and discipline that putting faith into action and his 21” biceps require: commitment, determination, hard work, pain, recovery, and perseverance. But it takes more than a mere gym (church) membership and the "appearance" of health (or godliness)… You must be ALL IN.
As a former football player and 30-year personal trainer, he understands the identity crisis of one who gets caught up in the pride of life. David is dedicated to resolving the identity crisis of men of all ages.
David Ashley holds a Masters Degree in Apologetics as well as a Masters of Divinity.
