CU to Hear Kingsport, TN pastor April 1, 2009 at Ransdell Speaker traces conversion to Christ as nine year old in Vacation Bible School, upbringing in a Christian Home. By Rashad Harrison, CU Student News Writer CAMPBELLSVILLE, KY- Campbellsville University will be hosting Dr. Marvin Cameron, pastor of First Baptist Church in Kingsport, TN, as the speaker for CU's chapel Wednesday, April 1, 2009, at 10:00amET/9:00amCT in Ransdell Chapel, just north of Broadway on the west side of Hoskins Avenue, Campbellsville, KY, on the campus of Campbellsville University. "I was converted as a nine-year-old in Vacation Bible School. My conversion followed my upbringing in a Christian home where I had learned about God and His Word since I was a toddler," Cameron said. First Baptist Church's purpose statement is "Our purpose is to love God, love people and lead people into a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ." The church has done this through a variety of ministries. They have built 17 Habitat for Humanity houses. Their recovery ministry reaches 60-90 people who are struggling with "hurts, hang-ups and habits" each week. They are in the process of opening a free medical clinic for the poor in the local community of Kingsport. Has been pastor at church since 2001 Cameron has served at First Baptist Church since 2001.Cameron was also a pastor at Tennessee Central Baptist Church (Fountain City, TN) from 1999 to 2001. In the years of 1993 to 1999, he was a pastor at West Hills Baptist Church in Knoxville, TN. His first experience as a pastor was at First Baptist Church (Gatlinburg, TN) 1984 to 1993. He was the associate pastor at First Baptist from 1980 to 1984. He is a native of Charlotte, N.C., where he attended South Mecklenburg High School in 1971, then attended Union University of Jackson, TN, a four-year, liberal arts, Southern Baptist University, where he received his bachelor of arts degree. He received his doctor of ministry from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY. Long time friend of the President Cameron served as chaplain of the University of Tennessee basketball team in the mid-90s and is very close to Dr. Michael V. Carter, Campbellsville University president, with whom he has been good friends for more than 20 years. "I am envious of you for having Mike and Debbie Carter as your leaders and friends," Cameron said. "Thus, I see the difficulties facing young people today. They are radically different from those my generation faced when we were younger. However, the great solution to our issues has not changed. The love, grace and mercy offered in Jesus Christ still provides mankind's best hope for living in a better world here and a perfect world in the life to come," Cameron said. Cameron is a trustee at Carson-Newman College in Jefferson City, TN, and the Houston Valley Hospital Board of Directors. He and his wife, Penny Green Cameron, have two children, Christopher and Tyler.For more information on chapel, contact the Office of Campus Ministries at (270) 789-5227 or e-mail at jstansbury@campbellsville.edu.
