The multi-phased career of Barry L. Callen
is unique. His superb gifts and servant leadership have made him a
valued theologian, historian, professor, author, administrator, and
trusted colleague in the Church of God movement and in other church
and academic circles, both in North America and around the world.
This well-written life story, done at the urging of many people,
lets us trace his inspiring pilgrim path as a loyal son of the
church and a courageous man of faith, learning, and service. A rich
read!
-James Earl Massey, Professor and Dean
Emeritus of Anderson University School of Theology
Scholar, author, educator, editor,
churchman, ecumenical leader, preacher, devout family man, all of
these are Dr. Callen. Above all, he is a faithful servant of the
Lord whose journey has been that of a modern day pilgrim in search
of the eternal city, with a desire to carry with him as many as will
come. This inspiring book reads like a novel, telling the
fascinating but true story of one man’s relationship to God in the
context of the challenging events of his life. This autobiography
will encourage others of us as we move along the way with him.
-Laurence W. Wood, Frank Paul Morris
Professor of Theology, Asbury Theological Seminary
It is a great joy to watch an individual,
yielded to the will of God, stretch and mature, always valuing the
soil of his heritage, even while his life and influence come to far
eclipse these beginnings. Dr. Barry Callen is one such individual.
His story needs to be told. It is actually the story of how God
partners with obedient children to bless and encourage the
multitudes.
-Jeannette Flynn, Director of Kingdom
Ministries Church of God Ministries, Anderson, Indiana
Barry Callen has been led by God into a
broad place, and he has made good use of his many opportunities.
Readers will be blessed to learn of his exceptional life, preaching
of the Word, scholarly endeavors, and effective practical
ministries. Congratulations, faithful friend.
-Clark H. Pinnock, Professor Emeritus in
Theology, McMaster Divinity College, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
