Columbia International University President Dr. Bill Jones offered prayer on behalf of higher education in South Carolina at the 64th annual South Carolina Prayer Breakfast in April.
Jones shared the dais at the breakfast with South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster and Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette among other state leaders. The keynote speaker was former South Carolina Gov. David Beasley.
Speaking to the media, Jones emphasized the importance of the event.
“We’re putting first things first,” Jones emphasized. “Laws will not change a state. Changed hearts change a state. And hearts can’t be changed by anything else or anyone else other than Jesus Christ, the Son of God.”
The CIU Ambassador Choir provided sacred music at the breakfast.
