Dr. Brad Stephenson
Lead Pastor

Born and raised in Central Kentucky, Pastor Brad began vocational ministry in 1978 shortly after marrying his wife Pam. He has been serving as lead pastor of DAC since 2006.

He has a bachelor’s degree from Eastern Kentucky University (where he met Pam), as well as a Master’s of Divinity and a Doctor of Ministry degree from Asbury Theological Seminary.

Brad loves to hike, play golf, and do generally anything outdoors. But, if given the opportunity they both would always choose to spend time with their children and grandchildren.

I am a Christ-follower who is passionate about making disciples of all nations. I want to know Christ and make him known to others through evangelism and discipleship through DAC, both in the Deltona and the Deland campuses

I am married to Kiersten Hull and a father to four children, Kenna, Colby, Laura, and Lucas. Kiersten and I praise God that each of our children love the Lord Jesus. 

I grew up in Minneola, Florida, graduated from Clermont High School (1985), Toccoa Falls College (1991), and Alliance Theological Seminary (2000).   

I enjoy watching sports, especially the Orlando Magic and Atlanta Braves. I like exercising, going to the gym, jogging and walking. I also love to do family activities at local parks in our home areas of Florida and Georgia.
