Meet a Practitioner 

David LeMaster grew up on a small Kentucky farm of green hills and wayward cows. His wild spirit rarely conformed to the wishes of the teachers at his small Catholic high school, and he swore never to be trapped within school walls again. He couldn’t imagine that one day he would become a scientist, teacher, paramedic, bush pilot and Religious Science practitioner. David LeMaster's life is a study in answering the call of Spirit, willing to go places he'd never imagined!

Upon completion of high school, several years in construction and factory work caused David to reconsider higher education, and he entered college. He discovered a passion for science and graduated with a degree in biology. Inspired and feeling destiny's tug, he went on to receive a Master's Degree in Wildlife Biology.  This brought him to positions working with the National Park Service, the Forest Service, then to Alaska's Department of Fish and Game.  Along the way his passion for all things that fly inspired him to get his pilot's license and become a flight instructor. 

Feeling restless for more, he eventually returned to school at the University of Alaska, obtaining his K-12 teaching certification. In that strange circular way Spirit often works, David found himself back in high school. This time however, he was the teacher, keenly inspiring Native Alaskan teens. This soon led to incredible new opportunities teaching emergency medical skills and aviation to teens in remote Alaska villages, empowering them in a manner unique to his diverse life experiences. He loved it!

A voracious reader and one who revels in solitude and nature, David became interested in New Thought and studied for several decades. In 2011, he retired from teaching in Alaska and he, and his wife Beverly, moved to an airpark in Idaho. There his beloved airplane is just out back, and an easy taxi away to the runway and a day in the clouds. David began to feel the call to study and write about Science of Mind, a philosophy that had interested him for a long time.  Having no Centers nearby, two years passed before he discovered the existence of online classes. They were the answer to his prayer. 

Practitioner training was truly a mind/spirit-expanding experience for David and he is forever grateful to Rev. Dr. Christina Tillotson for her vision and the creation of the programs; without them, practitioner studies would not have happened for him.  Upon completion of online practitioner studies, David traveled to Seaside CSL for the yearly retreat and felt the warm embrace of the vibrant Spiritual Community, led by Rev. Dr. Christian Sorensen. This helped David choose to have his practitioner license held at Seaside, where he served as a distance practitioner until transferring to Creative Life. David is also active in "PracWise", an online practitioner and student support organization, led by Reverend Nicole Merges in Golden, Colorado. 

David is honored to meet with clients and students for prayer treatment, and maintains an online face-to-face practice with Zoom, a secure, private meeting space. In addition, he has authored one book and is currently completing a second.
