A Tribute to Jamie Buckingham
In February, we will focus our Ministry Today website and e-newsletter on the life and work of Jamie Buckingham. He was not only one of the most influential leaders in the charismatic renewal for many years, but was the editor of Ministry Today at his untimely death in February 1992—nearly 20 years ago.
Jamie, who died at age 59, was senior pastor of the 2,000-member Tabernacle Church in Melbourne, Fla., a nondenominational church he founded in 1967. He wrote dozens of books, among them the biographies of charismatic leaders Kathryn Kuhlman (Daughter of Destiny), Nicky Cruz (Run Baby Run) and Pat Robertson (Shout It From the Housetops).
Join us as we celebrate the life and legacy of this great man who was also my friend and mentor. As we pay tribute to Jamie next month, please feel free to send us anything about Jamie or his influence on your life. You can send them to our staff editor Eric Tiansay ( This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ).

I remember when i first came to know Jesus as my Lord and Saviour back in 1993, my sister had a few of Jaime's books. These books gave me so much understanding and love for more of the Holy Spirit's move in my own life. I took down notes from the book of Daughter of Destiny and still quote them todate whenever i share with new believers. These books had blessed me so much that i wanted to share them with friends to encourage them. But i never got the books back!
Thank you for this opportunity to thank Jaime and to remember his work.
