The Calling: Meet Buddy Johnson

Meet Buddy Johnson – Minister of Jefferson Avenue Church of Christ in Cookeville

All across the Upper Cumberland, there are everyday people who are lead to do more than everyday things.

Buddy Johnson is the son of a preacher who, despite being inspired by his father’s storytelling and preaching abilities growing up, remained adamant that he would not follow in his father’s footsteps and go into ministry. One day he realized that the ministry was his calling, and would go on to earn degrees in bible and New Testament from Lipscomb University and Freed-Hardeman University, respectively. He joins Denna Hornby to talk about his loving family, and to share the story of his calling which has led him to be Minister of Jefferson Avenue Church of Christ in Cookeville.
