Youth Director Jacob Laughin

Picture
HEY! I’m Jacob! I am originally from Sheridan, Indiana and moved to Avon Park, Florida where I met my wife. Hanna and I have been married since October of 2007. She is my rock and a huge support and help to me. I’m a HUGE sports fan! Purdue University, Indiana Pacers, Orlando Magic, Indianapolis Colts, Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Penguins are just some of my favorites. I enjoy outdoor activities as long as it’s not so hot outside it could become a diet plan of its own! I love music of all kinds for the exception of Female Opera and Disco. John Mellencamp, David Crowder, Dolly Parton, Rush, and Loretta Lynn are constantly in my rotation.

I am currently a student at Piedmont Baptist College. My vision is to reach youth with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. To disciple them and help them to grow in the faith. My passion is to help youth grow not only wide but deep. I pray youth will have the knowledge and passion to stand up for Christ and reach others. I want my youth to be able to defend the faith with a zeal that will let others want what they have. I believe the Bible is the 100% inerrant Word of God. It is just as relevant today as it was when it was written. I feel we should stay up-to-date with current culture but not stray away from Biblical foundations.
