My name is Jeffrey Jones and I currently live in Jacksonville, FL with my beautiful wife of fifteen years, her mother and our two sons, Luke and Ephraim. I am a native Floridian that was born in Orlando and grew up in Jacksonville, FL.

I graduated from the University of North Florida with an Accounting degree and have worked in several different Accounting positions throughout my career. Currently, I am employed with the PGA Tour as an Assistant Controller in their golf course property division.

I have traveled overseas on more than one occasion and have seen the mission field first- hand. It is apparent that what we have in the United States is not the standard around the world. We are truly blessed and I believe that everyone should leave the country at least once to realize that very thing.

It truly takes the whole Body of Christ to fulfill His plans for our lives. I have never had one true area of ministry per se that I ever felt called to, but have served where it was needed. To this day, no matter what size part that I may play, even if that is mostly behind the scenes helping others reach their calling, I truly find fulfillment in assisting people reach God’s potential for their lives. We come across a lot of people in a lifetime. And if I can make some aspect of yours just a little easier, then I feel that I have done my part.
