Hi, My name is Will Davis Jr. I was born in Austin January 6, 1962 (you can do the math). I have been a serious follower of Christ since 1978 and have been in Christian ministry since 1980.
This is my lovely bride Susie.
I was married to Susie on June 1, 1985 (Susie was 6 at the time. It was an arranged marriage). Susie and I have three awesome kids—Will 3, Emily and Sara.
Here are Susie and the kids backstage at a Hillsong United event.
Besides my faith and family, I’m passionate about . . . .
. . . my hometown of Austin. I love Austin’s beauty, quirkiness and rich cultural diversity.
. . . . Austin Christian Fellowship. Susie and I helped start ACF in May of 1993. It’s been our great joy to serve our city with such high-caliber Christian people.
. . . . prayer. I was blessed growing up to have some great mentors in prayer. I love prayer and I know it works. I’ve written four books on prayer and hope to write more.
. . . . mountains. I grew up hiking in the Colorado Rockies and I had my first real God encounter alone on a mountain at age 12. I’m a Texas kid, but some of my best memories are in the Rockies.
. . . . missions.
. . . . and yes, the Doobie Brothers!
