Biography

1. Scholastic
   • Upon a tragic event in his life, there came about a profound change towards scholarship.
   • He attended Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, where he majored in Philosophy.
   • After graduation from TCU in 1971, he attended Dallas Theological Seminary (DTS) concentrating in Greek and Hebrew study of the Bible and earning both a Master and a Doctor of Theology degree.
   • In 1976, he was invited to join the DTS faculty, teaching Hebrew and Old Testament.
2. Pastoral
   • During his tenure at Dallas Seminary, he started and pastored two churches.
3. Continuationist
   • In 1986, after a thorough re-examination of the scriptures, Deere reversed his position on the supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit (such as healing and prophecy), arguing that all the gifts of the Spirit are for today, and did not cease with the formation of the New Testament canon.
   • Later on, this experience became the basis of his two companion books, Surprised by the Power of the Spirit and Surprised by the Voice of God.
4. Family Tragedy
   • Father
     • Deere was reared in Ft. Worth, Texas, the oldest of four children. When Jack was twelve years old, his father unexpectedly took his own life.
     • The sorrow and great impact of this loss (which included great financial strain on the family) impelled him at first to be a rebel for a time, but then at age 17 to begin a relationship with Jesus Christ.
   • Scott Deere ( Son )
     • Tragically, in December 2000, his 23-year-old son Scott, who was home for Christmas, ended his life in the family home after many years of struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. This led to an almost immediate relocation back to Texas for a long period of recovery.
   • Leesa Deere ( Wife )
     • In the spring of 2004, Deere began Wellspring Church in North Richland Hills, Texas, a church he pastored for many years.
     • In his book “Even in Our Darkness,” Deere writes at length about his wife Leesa’s struggle with alcoholism and his own personal failures.
     • More recently, he relinquished all leadership positions to be able to devote himself to full-time care of his wife, and they moved from Colleyville, Texas to Tennessee.
   • The Deeres have two grown children, Stephen and Alese.

2. James
   • James 1:10 – Hearing and Doing ( Link )
     • My beloved brothers, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger, for man’s anger does not bring about the righteousness that God desires.

3. Psalm
   • psalm 4:6 – Answer me when I call ( Link )

     • I say this as a concession, not as a command.…
