Journey 2 Joy Bible Conference

Live a Better Life with Journey 2 Joy!

In a recent survey, of all the things people indicated they wanted more of, the following were the 10 most frequently mentioned: Happiness, Money, Freedom, Peace, Fulfillment, Joy, Balance, Stability, Confidence, and Passion. The sad conclusion that was drawn from this research was most people are living lives that unfulfilled, out of balance, and without purpose. The truth is - the majority of people are living lives without true happiness and joy. They are often worried and anxious about things happening around them. What about you?

We invite you to join us for the Journey 2 Joy Bible Conference, with the host pastor, Dr. Emil Peeler, senior pastor of Capitol Hill SDA Church! It takes place thru September 4 in person and online. It's free! Each day you can learn something different at the in-person service or from the ease of your device. It promises to be a different experience that will excite and engage you.

Our powerful guest speaker will be Pastor Nigel Graham Davis, senior pastor, New Jerusalem SDA Church in East St. Louis, IL.

Journey 2 Joy Bible Conference

A lot of times we hear from people who fill us up with great teaching but never give us the tools we need to put it all into practice. Journey 2 Joy Bible Conference will be full of solid biblical teaching but will also give you practical tools and resources to do what you’ve learned and take it into your own home and community.

During the Journey 2 Joy Bible Conference our special guest speaker will be Pastor Nigel Graham David, senior pastor, New Jerusalem SDA Church in East St. Louis, IL.

Pastor Nigel Graham David

Pastor Nigel Graham David has led a remarkable and inspiring life, marked by a journey from adversity to profound spiritual and community leadership. Born in the United Kingdom, he is married to Maryline Fiona Sinclair, and together they have four children: Rochelle, Nigel Jr., Kiran, and Lauren. Pastor David’s educational path began at Northern Caribbean University in Jamaica and continued at Newbold College in England, where he earned a BA in Biblical and Pastoral Studies and an MA in Pastoral Ministry. Additionally, he is a certified MRT Counselor, underscoring his commitment to both spiritual and mental well-being.

Pastor David’s ministry career began in 2000, with his initial role as Associate Pastor at the Croydon SDA Church in London. His leadership skills were soon recognized, leading to senior pastoral roles at the Stratford and Ilford SDA Churches, also in London. In 2005, he transitioned to the United States, accepting a call to become the Senior Pastor of the Breath of Life SDA Church in Seattle, WA. His journey continued through various senior pastoral roles, including at Berea SDA Church in Boston, MA, and as a Clinical Chaplain for Kaiser Hospital in Vallejo, CA. His extensive credentials also include being endorsed as a Chaplain by NAD Chaplaincy for the SDA Church and being a Board-Certified Clinical Chaplain and Pastoral Counselor. Currently, he serves as the Senior Pastor of the New Jerusalem SDA Church in East St. Louis, IL.

Beyond his pastoral duties, Pastor David has made significant contributions to media and motivational speaking. His television career began with the production "Promise Keepers" in 2001, which led to opportunities on the God Channel and The Word Network. He has preached globally, with one of the highlights of his ministry being the baptism of 98 individuals in South Africa in 1999. Pastor David’s personal testimony of transformation from a life of incarceration, gangs, and drug abuse to a global preacher serves as a powerful motivator. His life motto, "God will take what's left," encapsulates his belief in redemption and the power of faith to overcome any obstacle.
