Meet Daryl Davison, our Development Director

After many years in law enforcement, I left a position I truly enjoyed to work for the Lord full-time. This was a life-changing decision for both my wife and me. I was inspired by the work of a planned giving representative from a well-known media ministry and sought to learn how to serve God in a similar capacity. In faith, I accepted a position with a conference that required us to move across the country. However, I felt the Lord had more for me, as I strongly desired to work for an evangelistic ministry. Eventually, I was offered a position with the Adventist Media Center, where I worked in Planned Giving and Development for a prominent ministry.

Life was good, and I truly enjoyed traveling, meeting with donors, and assisting people with their estate plans. After some organizational changes, I found myself looking for a new position. I prayed for guidance and started my own consulting venture. As time passed, I even considered returning to law enforcement. I did take a position as a uniformed transit officer, which was different from my previous role as an investigative agent, but I never gave up my desire to work with others in development and planned giving. One evening, I was injured in the line of duty, which brought an end to that position.

Shortly after my injury, I received a call from Amazing Discoveries, asking if I would be interested in working with their donors. The rest, as they say, is history. For over five years now, I have happily worked at AD and consider it a privilege and a blessing. Once again, I get to speak and meet with donors (whom I consider friends) and help them fulfill their wishes to support the vital work AD is doing now, as well as enabling them to leave a legacy as they await our Lord’s return.

I first learned about AD years ago when a friend from Bible study shared a DVD series with me. My eyes were opened to so much more than the status quo of modern Adventism. This information was life-changing, and I wanted to learn more. The Lord has a way of guiding us to where He wants us to be, even if we sometimes take different routes. I am blessed daily not only to work with an amazing team but also for a ministry that stands bold, preaching the truth to a dying world.

My wife and I are experiencing spiritual growth daily, and the impact AD has had on my life is priceless. I am honored and blessed to serve the Lord every day, and to do so while working here at Amazing Discoveries.

May The Lord Bless you abundantly!
