About Daniel Yoder

I grew up on a dairy farm in Missouri and then majored in youth ministry and Bible and religion at Hesston College and Tabor College. I was a youth pastor for nearly 20 years. My wife, Talashia, has been the high school theater director at Bethany for many years and I have either volunteered or worked with most of the shows she has directed. I enjoy the process of creating, building, problem solving, and leaving things better than you found them. Talashia and I have two boys who enjoy theater, sports, music, and all the college and professional sports teams that I do. 


What makes working at Bethany unique or special?

As a parent, Bethany has been a very supportive and flexible learning environment for my children. As a staff member it is encouraging to watch the students follow their curiosities while being supported by the teachers and staff.


When you aren't working, what can we find you doing?

Gardening, playing in the backyard, and home renovation.
