Author Information

I came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ in 1998 while I was in my last year at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey. After graduating and spending a few years touring as a professional upright and electric bass player, I felt called to pastoral ministry. My spiritual mentors confirmed God's calling, and soon after I was brought on staff of Calvary Chapel Marin under the direction of Pastor John Henry Corcoran. After being ordained in 2002, God led me back to the East Coast to plant Calvary Chapel New Brunswick. In November of 2006, I turned over the church to a pastor who I had helped raise up, so I could move back to the San Francisco Bay area and plant more churches. While I was there, I planted Calvary North Bay in Mill Valley, California, and in 2010 while continuing to pastor Calvary North Bay, I planted Calvary San Francisco. Both churches grew and I helped raise up leadership teams in each of them. I founded the Calvary Church Planting Network, which helps facilitate and support church planters. In 2012, God blew my mind when he led me to turn over both of those churches and move to the beautiful Pacific Northwest, where I became the Lead Pastor of Crossroads Community Church. Crossroads was one of the first megachurches in the Northwest, founded in 1975, and God is still doing an amazing work in the Vancouver and Portland areas through the Crossroads family of faith. I use what some describe as a unique style of teaching. I like to take the timeless truths of Scripture and make them easily accessible and applicable for men and women of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures. You can find my teachings at my website, DanielFusco.com, or on iTunes, YouTube, and at Crossroadschurch.net. Many people start their day with my #2MinuteMessage on my Facebook page. I also get to host the Real. with Daniel Fusco TV show and the Jesus is Real Radio Ministry on TV and radio stations across the country. My podcast Crazy Happy can be found on the Edifi Podcast Network, or wherever you subscribe to your favorite podcasts. I love to write, and I've written four books, Ahead of the Curve (self-published), Honestly: Getting Real About Jesus and Our Messy Lives (NavPress), Upward, Inward, and Outward: Love God, Love Yourself, Love Others (NavPress), and Crazy Happy: Nine Surprising Ways to Live the Truly Beautiful Life (Waterbrook Multnomah). I'm also a featured contributor to Preaching Today, and I have published articles with Leadership Journal, pastors.com, and Calvarychapel.com. I have taught at churches, retreats, youth rallies, leadership seminars, college campuses, and pastor's conferences both in the US and abroad. I am blessed to be married to Lynn. We live with our three children in Southwest Washington.
