Dan Adams is the founding and Senior Pastor of RiverTown Church. Born and raised in Jacksonville, he married his college sweetheart Amber in June of 1995.  Amber is a homemaker, pharmacist and the leader of the women’s ministry at RiverTown. Dan and Amber have two sons and live in Jacksonville’s Southside.

The teaching style at RiverTown reflects Dan’s commitment to communicating God’s word expositionally with a gospel-driven and relevant focus. Believing that worship should be refreshing and relevant, his teaching strives to overcome the trappings of boring religion and empty ritual by leading people to experience a relationship with Jesus Christ. A relationship with Christ begins with and is all about grace, and grace is what permeates the teaching, worship and culture at RiverTown. The stories of God’s grace in the lives of the people at RiverTown are simply beautiful. 

Dan is an alum of Samford University (B.S. in History, 1995), Beeson Divinity School (Master of Divinity, 1998), and Liberty University (M.B.A., 2009). He is wrapping up his Doctor of Ministry degree at Reformed Theological Seminary and is scheduled to graduate in the next year. He is a Sigma Chi, pledging and joining this fraternity in his college days at Samford. 

Dan loves spending time with his wife and coaching his boys in baseball and football. He enjoys golf and most other sports in his free time. He loves to eat sushi, wings and of course barbecue (like all good Southern boys). The beach, Amelia Island and Disney are favorites for getting away with the family. His two nicknames are Danny and Wheels.
