Jim Eaton was born in Indiana, but grew up in Bangladesh where his parents were part of a medical mission effort. After returning to America to finish high school, he headed for college where he met Natalie, who quickly captured his heart. Following graduation, they were married. Jim then worked his way through seminary where he earned two masters' degrees in biblical studies. Since then, Jim has served as a pastor to churches in South Africa, Germany, Chicago and the DC area. His overseas experiences have given him a global perspective, something that is usually helpful, occasionally exasperating (just ask Natalie) but always enriching. Jim and Natalie are incredibly blessed with three children--Seth (who is married to Joy), Kelsey (who is married to Daniel), and Brynne.
