About the Author
David A. Christensen’s love and enthusiasm for being a missionary was sparked in a missionary preparation class at Ricks College in the late 60s. His love and testimony for the Book of Mormon was ignited in a religion class the following semester. These two classes combined as a new beginning for what would one day become not only a passion but also the centerpiece of his professional contribution in the Church Education System and at Brigham Young University–Idaho.

David has taught missionary preparation and Book of Mormon classes for over thirty years. His testimony and enthusiasm for the restored gospel was shared with missionaries and members in the Chile Santiago North Mission where he served as president, and again in Central America when he served as president of the Guatemala MTC.

He counts his eight children and growing number of grandchildren as his most important converts, and his best friend and wife, Deena Bond Christensen, his eternal companion.


10 FUN FACTS ABOUT THE AUTHOR
1. I played on my high school and college basketball teams and could dunk a basketball until age 53.

2. I grew up on a farm and for fun I would hypnotize chickens with my brothers.

3. I was the designated "hair highlighter" for several of my teenage daughters (using box kits).

4. One of my bucket-list goals is to be an extra in movie.

5. I returned from my mission to Mexico City with 4 types of Typhoid and having lost 50 lbs.

6. I was always the one to take our eight children shopping for school clothes in the Fall while my wife had a much-deserved break.

7. I have always enjoyed early mornings and using that time for studying, exercise, playing early morning basketball, yard work, walks with my Sweetheart, watching the sunrise, or listening to birds sing. I love this peaceful time of day.

8. I was very shy and quiet in my youth.

9. I met my wife on the playground when we were both ten years old. We went 'steady' for a short period of time, all thanks to a friend who delivered messages back and forth between us -- we rarely spoke to each other during that time.

10. As a parent, I greatly enjoy making traditions and memories with and for my children...and now my grandchildren.
