Tremendous Start!

I can hardly believe that it has been a week since our Announcement Reception. I am so appreciative of the 115 family and friends who were in attendance. I truly appreciate each everyone of you. Crossroads is off to a tremendous start! The articles that was done in the Jackson Citizen Pat and the Blazer News have helped to create excitement and momentum in the Jackson Community. As we continue to move forward, I invite you to join me on a conference call this Sunday evening at 8pm. Please call 1-866-577-1472 and put in code 5177829414. I will be sharing a little more of the Crossroads Vision as well as explaining our volunteer opportunities. Again, thank you and I look forward to you joining our call. God Bless!!

Tony's Bio

Tony Jackson was born in Muskegon, Michigan, and moved to Jackson, Michigan upon his graduation from Western Michigan University in 1990. While at WMU, he met the former Alisa Suddeth who he married in 1992. Tony is a devoted husband and father of four, Shakia, Adrienne, Tony II, and Christopher.

In May of 1995, Tony accepted Christ as his personal Lord and Savior, and united with Second Missionary Baptist Church under the pastoral care of Rev. A. P. Williams. Tony immediately began working in the church serving as a Trustee and Treasurer until he accepted God’s call into the ministry. In March of 2002, Tony was licensed as a Gospel Minister. He was ordained three years later in March of 2005. Tony continued to serve as an Associate Minster under the guidance and mentorship of Pastor Williams.

During his tenure as an Associate Minister, Tony has served in various capacities within the ministry including teaching the Young Adult Sunday School as well as performing the duties of Sunday School Superintendent and Director of Christian Education. The Lord has given Tony a passion for sharing the gospel with the youth. Under the direction of the Holy Spirit and Pastor Williams, Tony was instrumental in starting the Extreme Church Youth Ministry at Second Missionary Baptist Church as well as Men Helping Men’s Ministry.

After much deliberation and prayer, Tony accepted the Lord’s call to launch a new multi-cultural, purpose driven church in Jackson. After receiving the blessing of Pastor Williams, he began organizing Crossroads Christian Center in February, 2008.

Tony is currently working towards a Master’s and Doctorate of Ministry Degrees at Andersonville Theological Seminary. He is also the owner of a State Farm Insurance Agency, where he has been blessed to be among the top agencies in the nation.
