David Holcomb
Executive Pastor of Ministries
David is a native Texan with an undergraduate degree in business from Auburn University. After a twenty-five-year career with a global packaging manufacturer, David left the corporate world to pursue a call to ministry and devote himself full-time to his passion—helping others grow in Christ through heart and mind. Because of numerous relocations, David has learned to seek out a local church connection with urgency and to deeply cherish the relationships God places in his path each day. He has been actively involved in adult education ministries in every fellowship and credits each of these experiences with the maturing of his faith. David began serving in discipleship ministries at River Oaks in early 2014 and moved into his current role in 2026. He holds a Master of Divinity degree from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. In addition to his ministry responsibilities, you might also know him as the annual ROCC 5K Race Director, a role he has filled since 2012—or perhaps as our occasional Elvis. David and his wife, Christy, have two daughters. Lauren and her husband, Alex, live in Longmont, Colorado, with their son, Christopher, while Katelyn and her husband, Que, live in Dallas, Texas, with their son, Nolan.
