Eddie
Huff - Executive Director
Eddie was born to a single German mother and a black American
(GI) father, in post war Germany. He grew up between 2 worlds,
at first in a small German village speaking only German. From
this world, at the age of 7, he was transplanted to a completely
different world, that of the projects of Philadelphia. Growing
up as an African American child in the 60s Eddie would move
back and forth from predominantly black environments to very
integrated ones. He has, however, always considered himself
a black American and counts it as a supreme privilege to share
in this rich history.
As a freshman at Texas Tech University he became a black
radical/Hippie accepting all of the late 60s early 70s leftist
ideology. He was vice president of the Black Student Union
at Texas Tech as well as president of the charter chapter
of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity there. It was not until his
accepting Jesus Christ as his personal savior in El Paso,
Texas, one month after his graduation that Eddie began to
see the world in a new way and begin on a new path with a
new vision.
Eddie Graduated from Texas Tech in 1973 with a B BA in management.
From 1976-1978 Eddie attended Melodyland School of Theology
in Anaheim, CA, in their M. Div. program and is a licensed
minister.
From 1981 to 1992 Eddie with his wife Vickie and 4 children
served as missionaries with Youth With A Mission (YWAM). Eddie
was director of Musicians for Missions in Amsterdam, Holland
from 1981-84, then became director of the Augsburg, Germany
YWAM base, leading Discipleship Training Schools and directing
a Christian book distribution center providing Christian books
and music to the U.S. Military throughout Europe and the Middle
East. In addition to these duties Eddie spent extensive time
in Uganda, Kenya and South Africa leading teams doing relief
work, and teaching for Youth With A Mission bases there.
In his service with Youth With A Mission Eddie has spoken
before thousands in Europe and Africa, as well as the United
States.
In 1992 Eddie and family returned to the U.S. where he has
been a financial services rep. with his own agency. He is
a speaker and former owner of a Gospel recording Label. Eddie
is a public speaker and has written hundreds of articles on
public policy, socio-political, and spiritual themes.
