Jamie Buckingham (1932-1992) spent his entire adult life in ministry. He devoted his writing and speaking talents and sacrificed his time to teach and spread the gospel, eventually becoming an internationally renowned best-selling author, columnist, and conference speaker. He was a friend to nearly every significant Christian leader in the charismatic movement until his death at the age of 59.
Jamie was the author of more than 45 books, including Run Baby Run, (with Nicky Cruz), Tramp for the Lord, (with Corrie ten Boom), Shout it from the Housetops (with Pat Robertson), Daughter of Destiny (with Kathryn Kulman), and Mission (chronicling U.S. Senator Bill Nelson’s trip into space aboard the space shuttle). Other popular teaching books included Risky Living, Where Eagles Soar, The Nazarene, A Way Through the Wilderness , Jesus World (a novel) and Summer of Miracles. (These books and more can be ordered through our bookstore.) He was also a regular columnist for Charisma and Christian Life magazine and other publications. He served as senior editor for Ministries Today magazine until his death. (These articles and others can be found under the writings tab.)0004 dad
Jamie traveled frequently, but his favorite destination was always the land of Israel. He produced several video series and workbooks teaching biblical lessons “on site.” His critically acclaimed book A Way Through the Wilderness, follows the actual footsteps of Moses as he led the children of Israel through the Sinai Desert.
While Jamie’s ministry reached around the world, his true love was always the local church he pastored for nearly twenty-five years, the Tabernacle Church in Melbourne, Florida. Jamie founded the Tabernacle Church at a time when he was seeking a deeper relationship with Christ—a search that quickly led him to a fuller understanding of what it means to be truly filled with the Holy Spirit. (Not coincidentally, this was the same time his writing career began to take off.) The church started as a small group of several families and some friends, but it soon outgrew its original facilities. In a few short years, the “Tab,” as it was affectionately known, overflowed on Sunday mornings and evenings, as people traveled from all over the country to listen to Jamie and see what the Holy Spirit was doing in the sleepy beach town of Melbourne.
