40 Days of Prayer Week One: The Holiness of God

Dr. John Stumbo is serving in his third term as president of the U.S. Christian and Missionary Alliance. He and his wife Joanna have been married almost 40 years, have three grown children, and five grandchildren. A pastor and ultra-marathon runner, life suddenly changed for John in 2008 when a mysterious illness left him hospitalized for 77 days and unable to swallow for eighteen months.

After a true miracle occurred, John was able to re-enter ministry. This story is chronicled in his book, An Honest Look at a Mysterious Journey. John has also authored three other books including his newest one on the churches of the New Testament: A Stained Beauty: Churches Ancient and Present. He loves being with the Alliance family—from teams on the field, to church leaders and congregations here in the States, to the great National Office staff. John and Joanna are enjoying making Ohio their new home as the National Office relocates to the Columbus region. John is a Board member of the National Association of Evangelicals and International Students, Inc.
