John McKissack

J.B. McKISSACK is a devoted pastor and author committed to biblical truth and eschatology. Born in the American South, John’s life was transformed at age 31 when he found life-changing faith in Jesus Christ. This profound shift led him to Bible college and missionary work in the Dominican Republic, where he and his family started a children’s Bible school ministry and faithfully shared the love and message of Christ. Now pastoring a small rural church in Southeast Texas, John has nurtured a lifelong passion for end-time prophecy—a passion that inspired the novel "Caught Up in the Tribulation." In it, he offers a fresh perspective on the return of Jesus, vividly depicting a world where all witness Jesus coming, and believers are revealed in epic style. The vision for Christ’s powerful return first came to John 29 years ago on the mission field, becoming the foundation for this novel. After years of wrestling with whether to write it, a recent moment of intense prayer reignited his conviction that now was the time to share this story. Still, John is deeply aware that his perspective may go against the flow and expects it may invite some controversy. As a close pastor friend once warned, “Sheep have teeth.” Despite this, John’s prayerful conviction to publish prevailed, and he steps forward, knowing the risks yet trusting the call. Through this novel, John invites readers to explore the most spectacular event in human history: the moment God reveals His true believers to the world. All eyes shall see!
