Jaha Howard

Deacon

How were you introduced to the Church of Christ?

During my first year of dental school, I began visiting a Church of Christ in Washington, DC.  I was amazed that members had biblical answers for my questions.  After privately studying with the minister, I responded to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  I love doing the Lord’s work and this lead to my desire to serve as deacon. I could think of no better way to spend the precious time that God has given me.

My Favorite Scripture:

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 is my favorite scripture because it gives the bottom line of God’s expectation of me. Despite the various directions that life pulls me, I am reminded of the “conclusion of the whole matter.”
