Passion with a Seven: Jason Lamer

Jason Lamer. Passion with a Seven 


Jason Lamer a passionate guy that you can tell that he wants to tell everyone about Christ. What is a Major to him. Ministry Major that became a missionary, evangelic, and youth pastor. He dived into each ministry with God leading, but also having strong heart for YOUTH. 


Jason Lamer grow up in a christian home at the age of two and father became a pastor( woot woot) PK all the way. I knew what he mean when he said Church was your life apart, intertwind in your life. It is like "Mom why are they not at church" kind of thing. I thought it was funny when he told the story of BK with seeing people in jeans after a sunday morning service. 


Because of his faith in Christ Jason became a christian at the age of seven during a Evangelical sermon at church. Always walked with the Lord, there was some dry time he said, but he just had to waited at times. He seeked God in those dry times and Waiting for God

Age 17, encounter with God, he really COME to BELIEVE in the Belief that he grow up


went to North Central at the same time that my President at my school was there. Dr. Don called him after meeting him at a FA in St.Louis. and that when he desiced to go to NCU, because he said that he wanted to go to a place were man like that are. 


He went as Pastoral Major, but became a youth pastor.. so it is possible to graduate with a different major and still do what God wants you to be. But in the end He wanted to work in the local church 


One thing that i felt that he really did after school was TRUSTING GOD.... Interviewed four different places. Grad in May and didn't have a place till july TEMP. Speaking in christ till then TRUST IN GOD .. then he landed a job in Union town, one of poorest coun. in Pa. Leading with teen pregnancy, and very depressed town.
