Dr. David Jeremiah, founder of Turning Point Radio and Television Ministries and senior pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church, felt God’s calling on his life at a very early age. Jeremiah succeeded Tim LaHaye as Shadow Mountain’s senior pastor in 1981. Jeremiah’s leadership of the church has led it to become affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. Dr. David Jeremiah broadcasts a daily evangelical radio program on stations worldwide through his Turning Point Ministries, which he founded in 1982. The broadcast is to be heard online. Along with his speaking schedule around the country, Dr. Jeremiah also finds time to fulfill another passion in his life, writing. His books are always gripping and right to the point. Some of his books include Escape the Coming Night, Prayer The Great Adventure, which brought him The Gold Medallion Award in 1998, My Heart’s Desire which gave him another Gold Medallion Award in 2003, Turning Points, Captured by Grace, which put Dr. Jeremiah on the best-sellers list for USA Today and The Wall Street Journal, What in the World Is Going On?, which made The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today best-seller lists, Living With Confidence in a Chaotic World, which made The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Publisher’s Weekly, and USA Today, and Publisher’s Weekly best-seller lists.
