Al Jackson

Minister Al Jackson was born and raised in Winter Haven,

Florida. He was baptized into Christ in 1993 at the Hilltop Church of Christ by

Minister Eddie L. Harper. He was raised by a strong, loving and hardworking

single mother, Sis. Rita Jackson, who taught him the value of hard work. 

In 1994 the Minister of the congregation asked Bro. Jackson to teach the High

School class and he has been teaching the Word ever since. He enrolled at the

University of Florida in 1994, soon after he met his wife Anisha at their first

Sunday evening service. They were married in 1997 and were blessed with their

daughter Jalyn in 2000 and their son AJ in 2003. He served faithfully as the Senior

Minister of the 10th Ave. Church of Christ in Gainesville, FL for 13 years. During

this time the congregation grew spiritually to its largest membership in its 55 year

history. Bro. Jackson & his family were blessed to become a Minister of the

Northside Church of Christ of Jacksonville, FL in April 2014. He currently labors

there alongside the Senior Minister, Charlie McClendon and the Elders and

Deacons. His emphasis is on pulpit preaching, the Youth Ministry, the Single

Adults Ministry and the Marriage Enrichment Ministry.
