Jimmy Hinton

Jimmy Hinton grew up in Shanksville, PA just over a mile from where United 93 went down on 9/11. He is a faithful husband, father, and minister. Jimmy has a very unique perspective on abuse. He grew up in the home of a predator, but Jimmy did not know that his father was a predator until a member from the congregation where he grew up and where his father had previously preached disclosed to Jimmy that they had been abused by Jimmy’s father. Jimmy went through the process of turning his father in and leading the congregation dealing with the aftermath of abuse and conviction of their long time minister. www.jimmyhinton.org
