Strengthen your marriage with gospel‑focused insights from Larry McCall’s latest book, A Seasoned Marriage.


What is Walking Like Jesus Ministries?

Many Christians really do want to grow spiritually. A common question they ask is, “What does Christian maturity look like?”  Interestingly, the way that question gets answered can vary widely from one Christian leader to another and from one denomination to another. Maybe a better question would be, “WHO does Christian maturity look like?” 

Well, Christian maturity looks like Christ! God’s Word says, “Those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son” (Romans 8:29). Walking Like Jesus Ministries exists to help people on that quest.

WLJ Ministries is committed to teaching God’s Word in simple, practical ways that honor Christ and help His people see how the gospel makes a significant difference in daily life and relationships. It brings us great joy to help people see how to apply the gospel in the daily contexts of one’s personal walk with Christ, in marriage, family life, the local church and life in this fallen world.

If you are interested in having Larry come speak at your local church, conference or retreat, or just want to learn more about WLJ Ministries, please don't hesitate to reach out!

“Larry McCall provides timely guidance that is unapologetically biblical and profoundly practical.”

“Not only was his material engaging, it was theologically sound and peppered with personal stories and experience. His style and delivery put our conference guests at ease and welcomed interaction and engagement.”
— Rev. Michael Harvey, Executive Director, Seneca Hills Bible Camp
“As a proclaimer of God’s word and truth, Dr. Larry McCall’s passion for Christ and his humble, awestruck reverence for the Most High God come out in so many ways. He is a careful exegete and gives the true meaning of the text. But to actually hear him is to be in the presence of a soul on fire with love for His Savior.”
— Rev. Rich Hines, Director of Chaplain Training for Only Hope Prison Ministries
“When he speaks, Larry McCall is as biblically rooted, Christ-Centered, practically helpful and engaging as he is when he writes. God used Larry’s gifts and approachable style to effectively reach the hearts of men, resulting in one of Bethlehem Baptist’s most impactful men’s retreats ever.”
— -David Michael, Founder, Children Desiring God
“There is a hunger among evangelicals for solid biblical teaching with true spiritual application. Larry’s relaxed and engaging style, combined with his years of faithful biblical exposition, was used by God to create an atmosphere of true blessing at our Spiritual Life Retreat.
”
— -Pastor Kevin Houser, Markham Chinese Baptist Church
“Larry is a shepherd’s shepherd. He is a man of God who knows the Word and understands so very well how to apply that Word to needy sinners saved by grace that are a part of Christ’s body. There is so much that can be said with regards to the Lord’s manifold blessings that descended upon our gathering through Larry’s service when our Gospel-Centered Marriage conference was held here in Italy. It was as though their (Larry and his wife, Gladine’s) ministry through the teaching/preaching and individual counseling to both the men and women present acted as a soothing/healing oil/balm on many wounds, old and new, in our midst. We are still reaping their fruit and hope to continue to do so for a long time.”
— -Johnny Gravino, Director of the Italian Theological Academy
“Our church family was blessed by a gifted expositor, and a wonderful shepherd and equipper of the saints. God continues to use Dr. McCall’s heart to get to the heart of what it means to follow Christ. Months have gone by since he was in Hong Kong, and we continue to see people discussing and applying the biblical truths taught us by Dr. McCall. Personally, Dr. McCall has acted as a gentle, truth-speaking role model; he is a Pastor in every sense of the word. He and his wife model loving each other as Christ loves the church, a model my wife and I have learned much from.”
— -Pastor Mike Rose, Alliance International Church, Hong Kong
“Larry calls us, with a laser focus, to see and savor Christ and to allow the gospel to shape our grandparenting. Larry embodies what he writes about in his book, Grandparenting with Grace. He walks the talk. Larry is a humble man, a faithful pastor, a husband worthy of imitation, and a loving father and grandfather seeking to live in a manner worthy of the gospel.”
— - Josh Mulvihill, PhD, Author and Executive Director of Church and Family Ministry at RENEWANATION
“No one speaks the truth of marriage and the gospel like Larry.”
— -Dave & Ann Wilson, Co-Hosts of Family Life Today
“Pastor Larry McCall’s books and teaching have proven to be a blessing not only to those who know and read his books in North America, but also among our readers in the Portuguese-speaking world. His book published by FIEL Ministries, Walking Like Jesus Did, has been one of our most downloaded books with over 100,000 downloads. To this day, we are thankful for the time he taught students at our Brazil National College Conference on how we might live out our lives, looking to reect Christ’s character in the whole of our lives and ministry. FIEL Ministries highly recommends this dear brother and faithful servant.”
— - Rick Denham III, President, Fielministries.com
“Larry is a very gifted author and speaker and, equally important, a humble servant of Christ and His church. We were very blessed by Larry’s messages on “Gospel-Centered Marriages.” The response from the attendees was universally favorable. Many remarked that they wished that they had heard these messages much earlier in their marriages. The messages achieved that delicate balance between conviction and encouragement —a real blessing!”
— -Jacob Moseley, New Covenant Media
“When Larry speaks, whether about grandparenting, marriage or any other topic, people listen. I listen, not only because he speaks the truth with the power and authority of God’s Word, but because he practices what he preaches. He truly is a teacher, mentor and friend who loves as Christ loves.”
— - Cavin T. Harper, Founder/President, Christian Grandparenting Network
“Larry offers a wealth of personal, practical, relational and, most importantly, biblical guidance for the countless situations and experiences of later married life.”
— -Gary Ricucci, author of Love that Lasts
“Larry McCall’s A Seasoned Marriage provides a treasure trove of wisdom and practical advice for making the “second half of life” as married couples all that it can be, or better, all that God intends it to be. I heartily recommend these thoughtful reflections on how to apply the gospel to our lives as we age together.”
— -Bruce A. Ware, Professor of Christian Theology, Southern Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky
