Hi! I’m David Head –a husband, father, son, brother, pastor, thinker, missional strategist, musician, bicyclist and avid University of Ky basketball fan. But mostly, I’m an ordinary, messed-up guy who just can’t get over the grace, joy and hope Jesus gives to ordinary, messed-up people! Because of that grace, I orient my whole life around knowing and treasuring Jesus above all things, and the joy of inviting others to join me on that adventure.
I’ve been married to my best friend, Paula, for almost 27 years. We have one son, Drew, who is a sophomore at Union University. We also share our home with a 70-lb lab named Samson the Wonder Dog and Tickles, the most spoiled cat in the world.
I’m privilged to serve as lead pastor at Victory Baptist Church in Lexington, KY. My work there includes teaching people to shape their lives by the truths, values and realties of the Bible; equipping other Christians to live their faith in their world with bold joy; and leading our people to reach forgotten, left-out, hurting people with the love of Jesus.
