David Pennoyer
I was born in a small town in Connecticut. I joined the Air Force in June of 1965 and served in Vietnam. In 1987, I was one of twelve people selected out of a pool of 500,000 as an Air Forces Outstanding Airman. I was even given the distinguished opportunity of meeting President Ronald Reagan in the White House.
Even though I had a successful career, something was missing and I gradually felt a void within my soul. I began to question whether my final disposition would be heaven or hell. It was at this crossroads in my life that I attended a Bible Crusade held by the Good News Mission. It was not that I lacked something in particular, but that I was completely disconnected from God. I received absolutely no fullness, peace, or comfort because I was separated from Him. Hence, I dwelled in fear and emptiness.
Through the words of the Bible Crusade, I received salvation and became one with God, giving me access to His comfort, peace, and satisfaction.

I was happily married for ten years and also experienced much success in my professional life. My wife was a music professor and we had not fought even once during our time together. But one day, an argument between my wife and I escalated to the point where we filed for an immediate divorce. We were two very arrogant people.
She then met Pastor Ock Soo Park and received salvation. For the first time in two years since our separation, my wife asked to meet with me. Through the meeting I had with my wife, as well as Pastor Park, I discovered how arrogant I was throughout my entire life. I began attending Pastor Park’s church with my wife and eventually received salvation.
Through listening to Pastor’s words, I learned to put down my own thoughts. As a result, I was able to reunite with my wife and children. Looking at things now, it is truly overwhelming to see how much my little ones rejoice from being a family again.

Born in the city of Detroit, I was raised an only child by a single parent. She died when I was 19 and my father had already passed away by then. I didn’t even know my grandparents. However, through hard work, perseverance, and a commitment to serving others, I graduated from Cornell University and Georgetown Law School. I was elected three times to the Michigan House of Representatives and in 2002, to the Michigan State Senate by defeating an incumbent.
I attended the 2006 Bible Crusade at Madison Square Garden. What I learned at the conference was that salvation is available without me having to do anything. I am given an extraordinary gift just by believing that Christ died for my sins and that all are forgiven. The people at the Bible Crusade were wonderful and I was able to hear the truth about my salvation.
