GABE JORDAN

My name is Gabe Jordan. I’m originally from Alexandria, Louisiana. I enjoyed a great 4-year college career at Mid-America Nazarene (NAIA) where I was able to earn several All-Conference, All-Tournament & Athlete of the Week Honors. I began working with LTD in 2019 as a Youth basketball coach and also became a member of the LTD Men's Team. LTD has had such a wonderful impact on not only my faith, but my entire life.

The LTD family doesn't care about what you look like or what you've done, they meet you where you are and walk with you to where you need to be. That type of impact goes far beyond the game of basketball.

My faith in Christ is the driving force in everything I do. It keeps me aligned with what God’s purpose is for my life. My relationship with Jesus has even kept me rooted when I’ve faced struggles in my life. Several years ago, I lost a dear family member to a sudden heart attack. She was only 25 years old. We had grown up together and she had become one of my best friends. Her death shook me to my core and I was angry at God for allowing her to die.

The Lord reminded me through His word, that we live in a fallen world and sometimes bad things will happen, but we have the ultimate victory through Jesus. This is what holds all things together…. The belief that one day Jesus will return and reunite us back to that same love that the world was created with. LTD has helped to support this belief and to fortify my faith in Christ.
