Pastor Daniel Espinoza Bio
Pastor
Daniel Anthony Espinoza was born and raised in Houston, Texas. He was baptized in Jesus name at twelve years of age
after his mother, Sis. Rosa Espinoza and her family began attending Life Tabernacle with Pastor James Kilgore. It was
at this age that he felt the calling to become a minister.
He graduated from Milby High School and after graduation left to attend Middlebury College in Middlebury,
Vermont. After one year, he transferred to Southern Methodist University where he met Carmen, now his wife. After
years of running from the call of God in his life he finally turned and began to run towards God.
He
started Texas Bible College in 1996 when again he felt the calling to become a minister. Pastor Daniel and Carmen were
married on August 16, 1996 in Houston, Texas. He graduated in 1999 from TBC . He did additional studies
with Twin Cities University as well as The Urshan Graduate School of Theology.
Upon
Graduation from TBC they moved to San Antonio in 1999 where Carmen finished her residency in Pediatrics and became a
pediatrician. During this time, Pastor Espinoza assisted Rev. Jack Dool of Greater Life UPC in New Braunfels,
TX.
They moved back to Houston in 2002 and had a beautiful little princess named Danielle
Alize in March 2003. In February 2004, Pastor Daniel felt a burden for his family and friends and began a Bible study
at his aunt Coco Herrera's home. From there the Bible study grew to have 50+ members on Friday evenings. He
applied for home mission status and it was granted in May 2004. The first service for The Promise Church (TPC) was held
on May 28, 2004 at the South Houston Community Center. TPC moved to its present location at 1102 75th Street
on June 16, 2004. They have been at this location ever since! God has blessed TPC in allowing them to purchase
the building! Pastor Daniel is currently the only pastor for TPC. He is being invited to many other churches and
overseas to share his burden for young people. Please pray for him, his family and his ministry that God may continue
to use him to win souls for His kingdom!
Please
welcome their new additions, Dana Alyssa, born on March 18, 2007 and Danae Alexia on August 30, 2008!
