David Bauscher attended Rutgers University for three years, from 1970-73, and was a Pre-Med Biology major (studying to be a Shrink), when on Jan. 3rd, of '73, he met God at a funeral parlor, where he was a pall bearer for a 14 year old boy he had known for 11 years, and whose older brother was his best friend. The man officiating was unknown to Dave, but something very strange happened as this man with an Irish accent spoke from a text in Deuteronomy 32:29 "O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!" God showed up and performed a resurrection! But the one resurrected was not the 14 year old boy in the coffin, but Dave Bauscher, then 20 years old! That is the best way to describe what happened. He became a new creation, a new person, immediately! He knew shortly afterward that God had intervened in his life and had disturbed and shaken everything in him and his world and had now gotten his full attention. He started attending that Pastor's church and coffee house Bible studies, where many of the young people at the funeral were also attending as a result of that funeral service. It seemed that the whole town of Riverside, NJ had been awakened! Dave knew he had to leave Rutgers and find a school where he could learn the Bible and ministry work, for he knew he had to preach this powerful message that had awakened him from death to life. Pastor Calvin Dobson had recommended he visit Bob Jones University to see what he thought. Once there with his dad, the Pastor's daughter, May Dobson gave them a tour of the school as an official tour guide.

It was love at first sight between them. They were married the following summer of '74. Dave finished out 1973 at Rutgers and transferred the next year to Bob Jones University. May graduated in 1974 with a Bachelor of Science in Education. Dave graduated in 1976 with a B.A. in Ministerial Studies, was ordained the same year by Independent Fundamental Churches of America and a board of 12 Senior Pastors, including his Father in Law, and also was ordained again the next year by Bible Protestant Churches of America, now renamed "Fellowship of Fundamental Bible Churches". Since 1976, Dave has pastored churches in southern New Jersey, Lancaster county, Pennsylvania & upstate New York.

He is now semi retired, holding a Bible study in his home. In 2018 Dave completed & published his translation of the complete ancient Aramaic OT & NT Bible called the Peshitta. See aramaicnt.net.
