Dave Rader was born in Collinsville, Oklahoma, and raised in the small town of Wakita. Growing up, he learned the value of faith, hard work, and strong community. From an early age, he felt called to help others. That passion led him into a career in customer service and later into writing.
Today, Dave writes faith-based stories and uplifting books that point readers toward hope and purpose. His goal is simple: to encourage readers and strengthen their faith. He writes with a warm, practical voice and a love for redemption stories. He hopes every page leaves people challenged, comforted, and reminded that God is at work in everyday life.
Dave lives in Oklahoma with his family. He loves being a husband and father. When he is not writing, he is usually outdoors. Above all, he strives to appreciate every second of life the Lord gives him.
