  • WEEKDAY YOUTH DEVOTIONS

    Week 1 & 2 - James jackson

    Hey there! My name is James Jackson and I'm a 21-year-old college student at Master's College & Seminary studying in the youth ministry stream. A little bit about me, I got saved when I was a child, but I rededicated my life to Jesus when I was 17 years old. After an internship with my home church, Bethel Ottawa, I was called into ministry and after almost a year of waiting, I started my ministry journey. Coming in the fall, I will be starting my 3rd year at the school, but for now, I'm super excited to be working at OVPC for family camp this year! God bless you all! - James
