From the streets to the pulpit

"Brian W Jackson is a native of Baltimore, MD and an adult survivor of child abuse. Throughout his early childhood and young adult years he experienced various forms of abuse, addiction, and homelessness. The pivotal point of his life was when he was homeless and in his mid-twenties. At a time in his life when he lacked the means to provide his essential needs, a network of preachers, missionaries, churches, and other institution throughout Baltimore provided for him. Had it not been for their unselfish generosity, Brian W. Jackson strongly believes he would have died when he was homeless. The acts of charity of this network of people and institutions not only served to preserve his life, but they served as witnesses to the type of lifestyle Brian W Jackson aspire for today. Today, Brian W Jackson is an ordained elder in The United Methodist Church. He possesses a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, Masters of Divinity, and a Doctorate in Ministry. He has lead workshops in the areas of addiction, homelessness, and in a number of other areas. He considers his life struggles as foundational to his vocation, and has striven to help others who are struggling much as he was when he did during the early years of his life. His personal mission statement is; To go wherever to reach the lost at any cost." --backcover
