Eric Stitts

Eric trusted Christ at a young age and felt called to ministry during middle school. He met his wife, Amy, in college when he was preaching revival meetings, and she would sing at the services. They have been married for thirty years and are blessed with four children and one daughter-in-law. Each of their children has helped deepen their trust in the Lord. Emily, who has special needs, is the only person ever born with her specific chromosome deletions. God has used her to impact her family and everyone around her, demonstrating that we can trust in a God who can raise the dead. Eric has been preaching for the past thirty-five years and has served three churches. For the last six years, he has been the lead pastor at First Baptist Church in Daytona Beach, Florida. They have been blessed to have Life Action minister to the churches they’ve served, as well as to their family during several Family Camps they’ve attended over the past twelve years.
