Our mission is to develop Christ-centered leaders who will influence the world.

In 2020, he was called jointly by the PCA Mission to North America and the Southeast Alabama Presbytery to the role of Evanglist. He founded the Center for Urban Renewal and Evangelism (CURE).

James' Story

In the Fall of 1977, at Jackson State University, I worked as a resident assistant to the football team. After becoming discouraged and depressed from all the wild living, parties, immorality and loneliness, I decided to take my own life. I made an appointment with death at 6pm, for the next day.

My plan was to take a bottle of pills, drink a 6-pack of beer and go to sleep. With a tear in my eye, I said “God, if you are up there, please do something for me!” First thing the next morning, Dave DeHuff walked into the football dorm and said that he would like to talk to the men about a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

I immediately thought to myself, “I wish he would talk to me!” And then, he said those words, “I would like to talk to you.” At that point, I thought, “Who told him that?” As a result, he set up an appointment to talk to me the next day at 2pm, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with me. So my testimony is, I made an appointment for death, but God made an appointment with me for life. So on October 29, 1977, about 3am, I got on my knees and said “Lord Jesus, come into my heart. Make me who you want me to be.” I knew from that night to this very day three things, that I’ve been absolutely sure of: 1) I’m going to heaven when I die 2) I will see my mom again, and 3) I need to tell everyone that I can about this great love that God has given to me!
