My Bio
Hi, I'm Jeff Calloway. I want to welcome you to my blog and website. This site is a place where I share my life experience of working in the corporate world as well as spending twenty plus years in various aspects of pastoring, starting new churches and coaching. I focus on Life Changing Vision that every reader can achieve and I teach those principles through my blog posts here. I invite you to sign up and receive these posts directly into your email two to three times a week.
I grew up in Knoxville, TN. the youngest of 10 children and was the only one in my family to make it through college and earn a degree. It was Roane State Community College that I met my wonderful wife Julie and we were married in 1981. After college, I went to work in public accounting and then transitioned into the corporate marketplace working in Accounting management for Navistar International, a Fortune 500 company with accounting offices in Knoxville. It was there that I started to understand and implement vision and leadership.
Currently, I am the owner of TenFour Logistics LLC, a multi-million dollar company that provides Last Mile Delivery Services to Amazon customers. It is our privilege to provide jobs to dozens of NE Ohio residents delivering Smiles across the Cleveland area. I also started other businesses ranging from the tech industry to the medical cannabis industry.
I have had the privilege of serving as the Send City Missionary with the North American Mission Board in Cleveland. This is an area that was an exciting ministry opportunity as I had the opportunity to train, coach, and build into the lives of dozens of men who started new churches from the ground up in the Cleveland area. I also have personally been a church planter and pastored churches in Ohio and Tennessee.
An area I have been involved with for myself over the years is writing. I label myself as a Missionary Writer. What do I mean by being a Missionary Writer? Here is my definition of the type of writer I want to become -- "A Christian missionary’s job is to spread the good news and love of Jesus Christ. They are willing to do so at a great cost. Some at the cost of their own life. They believe have a message worth dying for and will do whatever it takes to spread that message.That is the the kind of writer I want to become. I believe I have a message that people need to hear and I believe so strongly in that message, that I am willing to sacrifice for it to be heard."
I am married to my wonderful wife Julie, and we have two awesome daughters, Sarah and Emily, a wonderful son-in-laws Matt and Steven, a grandson, Caleb and three beautiful granddaughters, Ellie, Addie, and Abigail.
