MAITLAND, FL— Gerald Johnson’s new book, CALVARY’S CRIMSON TIDE, A Bama Fan’s Guide to the Gospel ($13.99, paperback, 9781628717938; $6.99, e-book, 9781628717945) shares the love and salvation offered in Jesus Christ by using football metaphors that every Christian, coach, fan, and athlete can enjoy. God’s plan of salvation is simplified in plain words, suitable for all readers. Furthermore, Johnson’s audience will be captivated by the fresh interpretation of the Gospel, providing deeper revelation through creative analogies.

“Many young people today who are diehard fans have either never heard the simple plan of salvation through Jesus Christ, or never had it shared to them using the metaphor of football,” states the author. “Like a prized recruit or Draft pick, they will have the offer to sign a letter of intent at the end, only to follow Christ as their personal Savior.”

Dr. Gerald Johnson is a retired Church of God minister of thirty-eight years. Over the past decade, he has traveled as a missionary evangelist to the continents of Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, as well as Latin America, sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ through Final Harvest Ministries, based in O’Brien, Florida. A native of Bayou La Batre, Alabama, Dr. Johnson shares his experiences as a loyal fan of the Crimson Tide, and weaves them beautifully into the book’s narrative.
