Jacob Harris

Dr. Jacob Harris is pastor at First Baptist Huntigdon, TN.

In his words: I was blessed to grow up in a loving Christian home. I came to know Jesus at the age of 14 and surrendered to God's call to ministry at 17. Jesus has been so kind to me, and he has blessed me with a wonderful family. My desire is to glorify Jesus in all that I do and to lead myself, my family, and our church to LOVE GOD, LOVE PEOPLE, MAKE DISCIPLES.

He is married to Kelli and has 4 children.
