MEET OUR PASTORS

Dr. Jake Givan Jr. is the senior pastor of Unity of Faith Bible Church. He was born and raised in Gary, Indiana, as a PK (Pastor’s Kid). Pastor Givan had a calling on his life at an early age to preach the Word of God. He left Gary to attend college at Fisk University where he became the college campus chaplain. His first convert was none other than the young lady that would later become his wife.

​

He has been ministering in the Atlanta, Stone Mountain area for over 30 years and has served in such capacities as the Director of the Atlanta Pastors Fellowship with the Urban Alternative under Dr. Tony Evans and Georgia State Director for Promise Keepers.
