Mary Elizabeth was the third child of Ruby and Odell Jones, pastor of Jacob’s Well Assemblies of God Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Dr. Jackson earned her B.A., M.A., and PhD from the University of Texas at Arlington. Her master’s thesis was "The Emergence of Pentecostalism: The Founding of the Assemblies of God." Her dissertation was "A History of Women in Ministry in the Assemblies of God." Dr. Jackson taught history and government at Nelson University from 1993 to 2009.
