James D Anderson

He graduated from Jenkins High School in Jenkins, Kentucky in 1969 and accepted Christ as his savior in the same year. He married Nellie Gibson in 1970 and they moved to Ecorse, Michigan. They continued living in northern Indiana until moving to Indianapolis in 1978.

An exceptionally talented musician, Jim played in various local rock and roll bands during his teenage years. When he was saved, he gave up playing secular music and devoted his talents to worshiping God by being the head musician in many churches, playing piano, guitar, bass, and drums.
