David Beaty
Pastor
David grew up in Charlotte, NC and received an undergraduate degree in business from UNC-Chapel Hill. He worked in sales for 12 years before joining the staff at Reynolda Church in Winston-Salem, where his focus was evangelism and world missions. He received his Master of Divinity degree from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and has served as pastor at River Oaks since our church began in 1999.
David and his wife, Beth, have two teenage children, Anna and Matthew. David has a special love for prayer and world missions, and has traveled on short-term ministry trips to Jamaica, Nigeria, Romania, and Cuba. His years in business have given him a special appreciation for and ability to relate to people who have been out of church and are unfamiliar with the Christian faith and the Bible.
When David finds time off, you might find him reading, working out at the YMCA, attending a school-related event for one of his children, or watching ACC sports.
