Dennis considers his major calling to be that of Teacher. He has taught at numerous conferences throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Several times a year, Dennis offers the members of Community Gospel the opportunity to attend a "New Life Bible Class." The course has been life changing for many of our congregants. Dennis has also taught courses on "Homosexuality and the Bible." The Schaves continue to travel as often as their schedule permits.
