Digital Pastor
National Community Church
David Russell has been involved in digital communications since the early 1990s when local-dial bulletin board systems hooked him into playing "door games". When the World Wide Web emerged in the mainstream in 1996, David was hyperlinking to and from pages of content and found joy in the source of Web documents. He quickly learned HTML and later mastered the infamous Microsoft FrontPage. In 2003, David began to learn of innovations on the Web that were forming around "user-generated" content, started snapping up domain names and established his first Web server. Around that time, David felt God begin ordering his steps toward a lifetime of ministry. Still passionate about digital communications and with a newfound fervor for reaching the lost, David began developing websites for churches and helping ministries extend their reach through online campaigns. Since then, he has crafted hand-coded, standards-compliant, usable and accessible Web sites for many organizations. David is the Digital Pastor for National Community Church in Washington, DC and pushes pixels and code at http://theaterchurch.com. He is also a now-and-then blogger at http://davidrussell.org. David and his wife, Missy, live on Capitol Hill with their son, Andrew.
