| Jerry B. Jenkins used to describe himself as the "most famous writer no one's ever heard of." With the success of the Left Behind series, he has become the leading contemporary evangelical novelist. He is the author of 15 New York Times best-selling books, including all 11 of the Left Behind series titles—Left Behind, Tribulation Force, Nicolae, Soul Harvest, Apollyon, Assassins, The Remnant, Armageddon, and the number one bestsellers The Indwelling, The Mark, Desecration, The Remnant, and Armageddon.
Jenkins is the novelist for the series, while co-author Tim LaHaye, a former pastor, provides the outline of prophecy based on biblical text. The duo's teamwork has resulted in a series that has broken all precedents for Christian fiction. As The Dallas Morning News writes, "It's not your mama's Christian fiction anymore." GQ calls Jenkins "a pro." Referring to the sixth title, Assassins, GQ says, "Assassins … is a good suspenseful read, and he [Jenkins] makes remarkably smooth transitions between the biblical and the secular."
Jenkins and his wife Dianna live in Colorado. They have three grown sons, one grandson, and one granddaughter. |
