Today on The Pursuit: Dave Swaim

Dave is the Senior Pastor of Highrock Church in Arlington, Massachusetts and leads the Highrock network of churches, which is 10 churches all around the Boston area. He was born and raised in Boston and he now lives and pastors in Boston, but those two bookends of his life look and feel very different from each other. Dave’s heart to live for God led him away from Boston, away from law school and away from the conventional family.

Dr. Lim teaches at Vanderbilt Divinity School & the College of Arts & Science. He has earned 4 degrees from schools like Yale University and the University of Cambridge. He is an award-winning historian of Reformation Europe and has delivered papers and lectures all around the world. But despite all of those impeccable accolades, Paul found himself teaching me theology, during my years at Gordon Conwell Seminary. But as you’ll hear, no matter where you find yourself in your career, sometimes it’s hard to shake some of the formative experiences of childhood.
