I'm excited because he is one of my favorite all-time preachers. He was with us in October and he is coming back in a few weeks (March 15). He's doing a leadership training on the 14. I don't get too excited about too many preachers, but I have always admired Rev. Jones. To this day, I could probably preach every sermon that I've ever heard him preach in person.

I don't know him personally, but I've always heard good things about him. I know my brother speaks highly of him.
When I was 15 I dated his sister for a week while he was the evangelist at our church. Does that count as being a fan? LOL

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
He was the overseer (aka sr. pastor) when I was part of a gathering in Metarie La.
Jerry's speaking style, when recorded on magnetic tape, gave me a vivid introduction to a preacher's breathing and the quintessential "and-da" that became such a familiar sound through the years.
enjoy folks....just don't sit right in front of the speakers!
