I began my walk with the Lord in 1976, and Pastor Jeff was my first pastor/teacher/leader. CCD was still in the old tire building then. I was part of CCD for many years, working with infants & toddlers, later working in the store and tape library. My heart is breaking but knowing he is home with our Savior is the hope of seeing him again. I'm thankful for his life and the impact he had on mine.

Rest in Peace. I am truly thankful I stumbled across Sound Doctrine on the radio one evening as a “borderline” Christian. The way he spoke and joyfully taught really breached my callus heart and hooked me into his sermons. Which then led to me becoming born again. This was in 2017, I have fallen short the past few years but recently have become revitalized once again. I came straight to Sound Doctrine for content to study once again. I had no idea this occurred and it breaks my heart that I was not active during his passing. I apologize to my brothers and sisters, I will use this as motivation to follow through with his teachings and strengthen myself in Jesus Christ. Thank you, Pastor Jeff Johnson. You will be dearly missed and I look forward to meeting you and giving my gratitude in spirit.

Wow. I remembered the last time that I cried so hard because of pastor Jeff. I was a young pregnant woman that had been born again but pregnant. This was in the 80s. He gave this sermon about trusting God. How we should put all of our problems at Gods feet. He didn’t need us to carry them around. Than he mimicked carrying around a bunch of problems for our Father and how do looked. I had so many problems, that freed me. I cried so hard at the realization of Gods power and love. I remember me standing out to him and looking at me. He really touched my life with his preaching. I can say a great example of what a good man of God looks like. Now that I cried my heart out, I will wipe my face and think about what is right,pure,lovely,admirable,excellent, or praiseworthy…. RIP.

Pastor Jeff was TRULY Holy Spirit filled. I’ll never forget when I was going through some really dark stuff and I had brought the very person that was my afflicter in hopes they would be changed… and let me tell you Pastor Jeff did not know me personally or what had happened to me the night prior… but, while he was preaching he looked at our direction and said “The Lord saw exactly what you did last night! You better repent !!!!” The person that I brought said to me “did you tell him what happened?” I said “no, Pastor Jeff doesn’t know me like that”. They began to cry and accepted the Lord that day. That will never leave me.
