201 Hidden Opportunities to Share the Gospel Through Writing – JL Callison – pt 1

Show Notes for JL Callison Interview

On today’s program, we are going to discuss opportunities for ministry that you may not even have thought of. We are going to be talking about this subject with Christian author Jerry (or J.L.) Callison. J.L. loves collecting books and has well over a thousand books in his library, many of which he has read more than once. (Jerry, you sound like me – LOL).

“Young Adult” is his favorite genre because, he says, he refuses to “grow up.” He studied for the ministry and – for much of his adult life, has served in lay capacities in prison and rescue missions. But his primary focus has been in youth ministry.

He has been a junior high school youth sponsor and a teacher for most of the last twenty-five years. He and his wife of 39 years live in Illinois. They have five grown children and are blessed with five grandchildren.

Help me welcome to the program – JL Callison! JL thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to join us today!

Now, other than that brief bio – tell us, WHO IS J.L. Callison?

How has writing helped you to deal with things in your own life?

We all have hidden opportunities to share the Gospel…how does your writing help others to find those hidden opportunities?

You said you like to present the Gospel in a non-confrontational, enjoyable reading experience. How do accomplish that?

Tell us about your books: “Stranded at Romson’s Lodge” and “My Donkey and the Master”

How do you present the Gospel in a way that tends to generate questions that will cause someone who is seeking Christ to dig for the answers?

Many young people today succumb to temptations just because “everybody else is doing it…” – how do you try to convince young people that they do not have to “do it” because everyone else is “doing it” – whatever “it” might be?

If someone wanted to get in touch with you, to ask you a question or perhaps to ask you to do an interview such as this, how can they do that?

What is your next project?

About your host

Profile picture for TS Wright

TS Wright

Hello. My name is TS Wright, and I am the voice of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and author/TV host of the God Centered Concept.

For the past 33 years I have been involved in Christian ministry. Ranging from ministry, teaching and coaching in both public and private high schools and college, I have worked with students, athletes and adults from all walks of life. I have been involved with a host of Christian organizations included but not limited to CRU, FCA and other outreach & church affiliated ministries. Also being ordained in Christian ministry and being both a biblical and historical scholar I have focused on Discipleship, Biblical truth, prophecy & historical theology. I have also authored 4 books, a journal and a devotional series which are all now in the editing phase.

In 2003 and 2004 the Lord cast a series of visions on my life as to what would become the God Centered Concept.

In 2016, the Lord called me to start writing.

In 2019, He cast another series of visions that has led me to now.

In 2023, I was led to starting Podcasting and through divine intervention found Pastor Bob. I became a frequent guest speaker on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and being led by the Lord I have taken ownership of the Podcast.

I welcome all of you who are a part of the Kingdom Cross Roads community as well as everyone who is just joining our community as we continue to work to advance the Gospel and spark a Great Harvest. By expanding our message to the NOW TV Network it is our prayer that we can maintain the same level of quality messages and engaging conversations that you have been accustomed to. We thank you for your commitment to this community and we ask for your support and prayers as we strive to glorify God in all that He calls us to do.
