Posted at 15:30h, 13 DecemberDave Jackson had a great impact on my life as a young man growing up in central Florida in the 1960’s. Each spring during my high school years Dave would bring a team of men and women from Huntington College to lead our spring camping ministry at UBIC Holly Hill. It was during one of those camping experiences that I committed my life to Christ and received my calling into ministry. I am thankful that when God dropped Dave Jackson into His pond I was blessed to be touched by one of the ripples.
