James Tibby

Jim Tibby lives in Clearwater, Florida with his Wife, Lynne. He was raised in the Church, and He believed in God and Christ Jesus. Growing up, Tibby had all of the head knowledge but did not trust in Jesus. As it has been said, “I missed God by 18 inches” (The distance between the head and the Heart). As a Freshman in college, Jim accepted Jesus as his LORD and Savior through the efforts of Campus Crusade for Christ while attending Arizona State University as a Music Major. He immediately began directing a choral and instrumental group sponsored by Campus Crusade called “That Certain Sound”.

Throughout the years, He has been Minister of Music or Director of Music through many Churches in Florida. He was Bi-vocational as his full-time occupation was in many aspects of the Real Estate Profession including residential and commercial sales, appraising, training, and sales management.

Just before his retirement from full-time employment in Real Estate, the Holy Spirit convicted him that I needed to pursue Ministry training. He had an increased hunger for the Word.

He began Christian Leaders Institute in 2015. He was ordained in 2017. He is a minister of the Word with the Christian Leaders Alliance. He is willing to mentor others in their ministry training and assist them through the process of ordination.
