Speaker and Writer
At the age of 16, Jess Ford co-founded Ignite Student Ministries, a weekly multi-site youth gathering of over 600 students around DFW. Since then, Jess graduated from Oral Roberts University with his undergraduate degree in Ministry and Leadership. Jess recently obtained an MBA from Oral Roberts University, concentrating in Christian leadership. Today, Jess works full-time for Live Action and serves as a writer for Focus on the Family.
The sanctity of life is an issue close to his heart because of his own story, as Jess was nearly aborted when his mom had an unplanned pregnancy. Today, Jess actively speaks through a pro-love organization that his mother, Amy Ford, founded called Embrace Grace.
Jess is passionate about communicating the beauty of God and the gift of life we are blessed with.

I was very hesitant to hire a young speaker, and I took a chance when I saw how his presentation to speak to the crowd about Gen. Z would be helpful to our community. I am very pleased that I took this chance. Jess was very professional and spoke from his heart. I would highly recommend Jess to speak at other PRC events. He has a powerful message that more people need to hear.
Jess did a wonderful job connected as a younger speaker to our younger crowd as well as speaking to our older generation on bridging the gap and connecting to the younger generation. We would highly recommend him and have already done so to other Director's in our region.
Jess knocked it out of the park. Being young we were nervous especially with the importance of our first post-Roe Gala. He engaged the young and the old. Very professional and easy to work with. We need more speakers like him especially at the age of 23.
Jess superseded my expectations I had for that evening's presentation. It was exactly what I had hoped.
