Keynote Speaker

Dave Mann (Director, Shining Lights Trust)

Dave is a gifted leader, communicator and author with a passion to see the Christian faith both well represented within and positively appreciated by our society. Following theological studies at the Bible College of New Zealand (now Laidlaw) Dave worked in community ministry in South Taranaki, and then as a pastor in Singapore. He returned (with family) to New Zealand at the end of 2010 to begin this current work. He has been fearless in pioneering initiatives purposed to helping the Church in New Zealand to better represent itself and achieve its mission, with notable successes, certainly including the national Hope Project media efforts, with significant application in and through hundreds of local New Zealand churches.
