BIO

DOWN THE NARROW ROAD

Anthony Delgado is passionate about teaching the Bible to others and believes that technology should be leveraged for the expansion of the Gospel and for followers of Jesus to grow in their faith.

He has had many careers including selling cutlery, directing outdoor adventure for a camp, promoting movies, and teaching graphic design at a local high school. As a musician, Anthony likes to use skills in music and the arts (even the digital arts) to further the Kingdom of God.

Anthony holds a Bachelor’s degree in Christian Reason from Sterling College as well as a Master’s degree in Biblical & Theological Studies from Knox Theological Seminary. He also has his CSET in music, is a Google Certified Educator, and holds clear CTE teaching credentials in Arts, Media, & Entertainment and in Information, Communication Technologies.

Anthony is an Adobe Education Leader and inspiring Google Innovator with a desire to see education—inside and outside the church—progress with technology and society.

Anthony is married to Jami Delgado. They have been friends since 7th grade and have been together since 12th grade. Anthony will tell you that every year gets better! Anthony and Jami have 3 kids that they are raising to value and love people as an expression of their love for Jesus.

Anthony spent nearly 11 years as a youth and young adults pastor, served as worship pastor, unplugged his share of church toilets, and currently serves as Lead Pastor at Palmdale Church in East Palmdale, California. He has done missions work, studied church planting, and explored online ministry through social media, blogging, and podcasting.

Anthony is hopeful that God is working in His church today to bring life to the spiritually dead, to heal those who are spiritually blind, and to enable the spiritually lame to walk in faith with Jesus.
