Lev’s pastor. Throughout Lev’s childhood, Pastor Dan has been there for him and was an important figure in raising Lev to believe that he’s blessed because he’s a tithe. Because of their close relationship, Lev asks that Pastor Dan attend his tithing party and accompany him to the harvest camp the next day. Pastor Dan, however, hisses at Lev to run away after Connor drags him out of the car, and later, when Lev calls Pastor Dan, Pastor Dan begins to imply that he doesn’t believe in tithing and that he wants Lev to escape and have a real future. Pastor Dan confirms this when he visits Lev in prison at the end of the novel. During the time that Lev was a runaway, Pastor Dan left the church, as he decided he couldn’t worship a God who supported human tithing. Despite Lev’s mixed emotions, Pastor Dan still has the ability to make Lev feel heard, hopeful, and cared for.
