Jahmezz Thompson

My heart burns with passion for evangelizing and reaching the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am doing outreach within the context of my local community through my local church. I am under authority as a church-member and also as an ordained deacon at Covenant Presbyterian in Panama City, FL (which is part of the PCA). I am humbled and honored to represent Christ by witnessing to the community where I live and to be in a local church where discipleship can be done.

I truly believe every church should have a local evangelist and I am committed to helping bring awareness about this need. I plan to reach my community through personal witnessing, open-air evangelism and by training and discipling others to do the same. I also volunteer at our local Christian Pregnancy Resource Center for a men’s parenting class, where I am able to share the Gospel and give practical resources on fatherhood.

I am currently in school with the Samuel Davies School of Evangelism (Offered by REF/PEF). I should be graduating as a part of the inaugural graduating class next fall. The degree I will be receiving is an Associate of Applied Science in Evangelism. While having this degree doesn’t improve my heart for evangelism (directly), it does show my local church I am serious about my calling. It also allows me to “be transformed by the renewal of my mind” (Romans 12:2) so I can become a wiser evangelist as I am out representing my church, REF, and most of all our LORD!
