Dr. Garza is committed to scripture, family, education and leadership. As a Pastor, mentor, and a teacher, he is dedicated to see God's Glory exposed to multiple generations. As the seventh child out of 11 siblings raised in an Assembly of God church in the state of Washington, his dedication to faith and family, and pursuing one's dreams, was instilled at an early age. He and his wife Sandra have four children: Anthony, Cassandra, Carissa, and Crystal. Dr. Garza graduated from Bethany University and completed two Masters degrees from Fuller Theological Seminary in Theology and Missiology. His Doctoral pursuit at Fuller led him to write about bridging the "Pentecostal generational gap," which seeks to ensure a "spirit filled" empowered life for a new generation. He served as A District Youth Director before planting Third Day Worship Center in Elk Grove.
