About the Author

Joe Wright is an accomplished author of the book Healthy Habits from Jesus, bringing many decades in ministry, teaching experience, and theological study to this work. He graduated from the University of Massachusetts and spent four years as an officer in the United States Air Force. Sensing a desire for a more intense sense of calling, Joe went on to further theological education at Denver Seminary, where he prepared for a life of teaching and ministry.

For 33 years, the country of Austria was next. Joe taught the Bible and Theology at a high-school level in the German language, touching many lives by his teaching. Calla Jean complemented this same ministry as an extremely needed, much-appreciated Christian Counselor.

Joe also earned a Doctor of Ministry from Fuller Seminary in California to broaden his ministry. This further graduate degree served him well in enhancing his teaching methodology and greatly added to a further understanding of spiritual disciplines that are at the heart of his work. Joe’s commitment to “sharpening the axe” for his teaching ministry reverberates in the depth and practical wisdom that emanate from his writing.

Now retired, Joe and Calla Jean live in Colorado where they are serving their local church. Their desire to serve others was manifested in their volunteer work with their mission agency—clearly showing that their passion for ministry and spiritual growth is as strong as ever.

With his wealth of teaching experience and living out Jesus’ principles all his life, Joe comes across as a strong, trustworthy voice in Christian literature. In Healthy Habits from Jesus, Joe draws from his years of rich experience and deep knowledge to help readers draw from the habits of Jesus and apply them in very practical terms in their own lives. His work is immeasurably invaluable to any person who would want to walk deeper in their faith and live a life that reflects more of Christ. Whether you are a new soul in the faith journey or looking to grow further, Joe Wright will help you navigate it all through insights on how to live your life like Christ did.
