David Brum was born in Fresno, California, on November 16, 1954, to Orville and Marjory Brum, the eldest son in a Roman Catholic family. He was raised in Riverdale, a Portuguese-American area, and graduated high school in 1973. He enrolled in St Patrick's College Seminary, Mountain View, where he discovered the history of Orthodoxy and attended services at St Nicholas Church, Saratoga. He began reading the Church Fathers in the 1970s and tried to integrate his private study into his regular study. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Humanities (specialising in history, philosophy and English literature) before entering St Patrick's Seminary in Menlo Park, graduating with a Masters of Divinity in 1981 and being ordained a Roman Catholic priest that same year. He served in a variety of capacities, including in the Portuguese-American community (and editor of the Portuguese-language page of the diocesan newspaper) and as diocesan Director of Vocations.

He was asked by his bishop to continue further studies in 1992, and, in 1995, received a JCL (degree in canon law) from the Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C. During this time, his relationship with Orthodoxy continued with his research, and his study of canon law brought him closer to Orthodoxy. He nevertheless returned to his diocese and was assigned to the Diocesan Tribunal and a small, rural mission parish.

It was ultimately his study of canon law that brought him to petition to be received into the Orthodox Church in America, and he was received by vesting by Bp Tikhon of San Francisco and the West at the Monastery of St John of Shanghai & San Francisco.
