Group Session Main Speaker
Our Our special guest speaker for the weekend is Pastor Jay Lickey. Pastor Lickey is no stranger to IFCA Cultivate. He and Pastor Daniel Johnson organized the first Cultivate Youth Retreat together in 2011. He grew up in central Missouri and was raised by Christian parents committed to the local church. He spent his childhood in the same country church and was saved as a boy. However, when the church called a new pastor and youth director who held a high commitment to God’s Word, Jay began to hear and understand in a new way who God was and what God had done through Christ. The resulting growth of love for God’s Word set him on a course that eventually was realized as God’s calling to ministry. Jay earned a bachelor’s degree in Bible from Southwest Baptist University and a Master of Divinity from The Master’s Seminary.
