Pastor David Hsu received his Master of Theology and Doctor of Ministry degrees from Dallas Theological Seminary. He joined WHCC as the English pastor in 1993 and was appointed as senior pastor in July 2002. He is married to Cheryl and has two children, Nathan and Hannah. As a child, Pastor David’s father passed away suddenly from a heart attack when he was just 12. In the grief, Pastor David experienced a profound spiritual moment, sensing God’s comforting words, “Fear not, now you will have to let me be your father.” This experience deepened his faith in Jesus, and continues to shape his life and ministry. Today, Pastor David finds strength in the promise of 2 Corinthians 6:18: “I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me.”
許重一牧師畢業于達拉斯神學院，獲得神學碩士學位和教牧學博士。1993年加入西區教會擔任英語牧師，2002年7月接任主任牧師。許牧師和許周筱琪師母育有兩個孩子，磊聖和涵寧。許牧師的父親在他12歲時突發心臟病去世。在失去至親的悲傷中，許牧師經歷到神大能的安慰：“不要害怕，現在我要成為你的父親。”這段特殊的經歷加深了他的信心，願意繼續塑造生命、建立事工。現在許牧師在哥林多後書6:18神的應許中得到力量：“我要作你們的父親，你們要作我的兒女。”
