About this title

About the Author:

The dictionary defines redemption as "to set free; rescue" and that is what Jim Jackson believes God has done for him. Jim began his physical life in North Dakota and his spiritual life in northern Minnesota, growing up next to the Chippewa Indian Reservation. During his teen years, he was intensely interested in spiritual things and set out on a spiritual journey to find out the truth about any specific belief system. After wading through everything from atheism and eastern mysticism to Islam and Mormonism, his life was changed when Jesus transformed his heart at a Christian camp. Jim has spoken all across the United States and internationally, being one of three speakers chosen for the World Young Adult Conference in Hong Kong to address apologetics in a postmodern world. He has been the keynote speaker for Athletes in Action, Campus Crusade for Christ, and Fellowship of Christian Athletes as well as numerous colleges, churches, camps, and retreats. He was the featured speaker for the Tooth and Nail Festival in Seattle featured on the Fox Network, seen by millions of people worldwide. In addition to speaking, he has written over 350 songs for various bands and was a pioneer of the worship rave movement featured in the LA Times. Jim has multiple degrees with honors in Criminal Justice and Theology. He is the founding and Teaching Pastor of Revive Church and finds his greatest joy in teaching God's word and training disciples. His passion is to see people fall in love with the Jesus of the Bible and allow him to turn their lives into a story of redemption! Jim and his family live in Southern California.
