Senior Minister David Flanders
David Flanders has lived in Cornwall all his life. He was converted when he was 14, six months later he was filled with the Holy Spirit and soon after began to preach in local churches. On leaving school he went into management with the Milk Marketing Board but the call of God was still strong upon him.

He has been involved in planting churches in Malta, Andorra, Sicily, Liechtenstein, Estonia and England. David holds a BA in theology from Calvary Bible Seminary and lectures in evangelism and mission in Bible Schools. He is the author of `Turning Yourself Inside Out' a book on practical evangelism as well as numerous tracts, pamphlets and articles.

He formed Jesus is the Answer International Mission (now David Flanders Ministries) in 1981 when his full time Christian work began. The ministry covers crusades, conferences, seminars and camps.
