David Fairchild

Lead Pastor

David was adopted from Seattle, grew up in Port Orchard, and went to school in South Kitsap High. When he was 21, he moved to Los Angeles and started working as an accounting and financial recruiter  where he climbed the ladder eventually becoming a partner with another company.

From the age of 15, David was an Atheist and it wasn’t until after marrying his wife, Grace, that David became a Christian. It was while living in San Diego that his faith grew, he began serving at his local church, and sensed a calling to vocational ministry. David, Grace, & their two children (Michael & Madison) spent 10 years planting churches in California and serving as a Board Member for the Acts 29 Network as well as Acts 29 International before moving to Seattle in 2011 where David was lead pastor of Mars Hill West Seattle (later to become Trinity West Seattle). The Fairchilds served faithfully in Seattle until the Fall of 2019 when they responded to C3Houston’s need for a lead pastor.

Brad Morello

Pastor of Counseling & Missions

Brad Morello starting serving as the Interim Minister at C3 in August of 2019 and as the Pastor of Counseling and Community Groups in February of 2020. His responsibilities include overseeing C3’s biblical counseling, community group, and missions ministries, with occasional preaching and teaching opportunities. Brad has a passion for the local church to grow in godliness and to effectively participate in the Great Commission in Houston and around the world.

Brad became a Christian here in Houston during high school through the ministry of Young Life. He quickly developed a passion to know Christ and to make Him known. His love for God and His Word can be traced back to the ministries of men like John Piper, Charles Spurgeon, and others who championed expository preaching and the Glory of God as the end of all our pursuits. Brad holds a Ph.D. in Missions and New Testament from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he formerly served as an adjunct professor of Christian Missions. Before coming to C3, Brad and his family served as missionaries in East Asia for eleven years.

Brad is quick to admit that he married well above himself! He and Amy have been partners in ministry since they were married in 1999 and have three adult children: Savannah, Peter, and Alex. They have all committed themselves to the Lord and are thriving in their relationship with Him. They truly bring untold joy to their parents’ lives.
