Jerry B. Jenkins’s books have sold more than 70 million copies. Twenty-one of his titles have reached the New York Times, USA Today, Publisher’s Weekly, and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists. With co-author Tim LaHaye, Jenkins wrote the blockbuster Left Behind series. The first book was named by PBS as “America’s 100 Favorite Novels,” and inspired a movie starring Nicolas Cage.

“I answered a teenage call to full-time Christian work and assumed it would mean I should abandon my writing to pursue training as a pastor or missionary. But a wise counselor told me that “God often equips us before He calls us,” and suggested my writing might be the vehicle I would use to follow my call.”
