Dana Hanson is married to bride Nancy (for 22 years) and they are the parents of Kristina, 19, and twins David and Gregory, 17. Dana’s interests include hiking Half Dome, snorkeling in Maui, weight training to combat his twins’ double teaming him, the Green Bay Packers, and Italian Contemplative Prayer Methods of the 14th Century (not really, but thought I’d better put something “religious” here!)

Dana is the lead pastor of one of the larger mainline churches in the Valley in Los Angeles, LIFEhouse. He has over 25 years experience of outreach and training in an urban setting, actually working in a local congregation. His ministry with Jewish and Muslim friends, prison ministry, and working on local public high school and college campuses has made for an interesting mix of opportunities.

Dana has done much work in the worldview/ science/ philosophy arena for Faithinkubators, a para-church youth ministry network. For the last seven years, Dana is personally mentored by Christian thinker and author, Dallas Willard.

Dallas has endorsed Dana’s new DVD series, “How To Be A Christian Without Being A Jerk!” This series is recorded live at Oasis Christian Center, Hollywood CA. You can get it here.
