Last week, Union College students had a visit from the Rev. Jamelle Jones, pastor of the Wesley Foundation at the University of Louisville and author of “You are Enough … You Matter,” “Immeasurably More,” and “Believe Again.” Jones’ talk, titled “Spiritual Leadership with Reliability & Dependability,” is part of the monthly student leadership training series hosted by ULead 360 and was held in the Patridge Conference Room on Union’s campus.
Born and raised in Dayton, Ohio, Jones graduated from Eastern Kentucky University, majoring in philosophy and minoring in Middle Eastern religions. He then moved to Texas, where he received his master’s from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary.
Jones spoke to the group about how to become a leader, focusing on traits and qualities necessary to be successful in the future. He combined his ideas with spiritual teachings and real-world application, resulting in an engaging and informative talk.
