Come enrich your marriage at the Suncadia Resort at our annual marriage retreat on March 16th-17th. We are thrilled to have David & Cece Bruce be our guest speakers from LA.

David Bruce is originally from Oklahoma but was wondering in Moscow, Russia when he was met and got baptized in 1991. A few years later he met his lovely wife, Cece from the Stockholm Church. Cece is a chemical engineer and became a disciple in Berlin, Germany in 1991 while on a grad school internship. Both their kids were born in Moscow, Michael (22) and Kristina (19) and were baptized as teens in the Turning Point Region of LA. After addressing his own personal addiction to pornography and embracing a recovery lifestyle within his Christian walk, David decided to go back to grad school and become a therapist. David has been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 2008 but also has worked as an Addiction Medicine counselor in clinical setting for over 10 years. At his clinic and in his ministry, David is often referred to as the “brain guy.” David loves integrating insights from the field of neuroscience with biblical principles in a clear, fun and practical way. His conviction is that if we know how something works, we will use it better. This applies to the human brain. David currently works part-time as an LMFT in Culver City and serving part-time with Cece in the Turning Point Region of LA. David specializes in chemical and behavioral addictions, depression, anxiety and couples’ therapy. David’s self-care regimen includes reading, running, going to the movies, and spending time with his best friend, Cece.
