Judy Salisbury (birth year unavailable–) is an American preacher, speaker, and author whose ministry through Logos Presentations, founded in 1994, focuses on equipping Christians to share their faith with passion and persuasion. Raised in the metropolitan area of New York City, she worked in corporate sales and explored stand-up comedy, pantomime, improvisation, and acting before moving to California in 1984. After establishing herself as an award-winning salesperson, she transitioned into training professionals in sales and presentation skills. Converted to Christianity in 1991, she began speaking at events nationwide, including Focus on the Family, Concerned Women of America, and various apologetics conferences, delivering messages on Christian apologetics, emotional trauma, and vibrant faith. Married to Jeff, she homeschooled their two children and resides near Mount St. Helens Volcanic National Park in Washington State. Salisbury’s preaching ministry is characterized by her engaging, humor-infused style, drawing from her diverse background to connect with audiences at women’s retreats, youth rallies, and general assemblies. A former radio talk show co-host of Issues & Answers and Church Spotlight, she has authored books like A Time to Speak (foreword by Josh McDowell), Reasons for Faith (foreword by Norman Geisler), and The Emmaus Conversation, becoming a notable voice in apologetics as the first woman to write a book on the subject for women. Beyond preaching, she volunteers as a firefighter and Crisis Care Counselor with her local fire department since 2005, serves as a Fire Commissioner, and chairs the Washington State Board of Local Volunteer Fire Fighters. As of 2025, Salisbury continues her work, leaving a legacy as a versatile communicator whose ministry blends wit, wisdom, and practical theology to inspire and equip believers, though her impact is more prominent in speaking and writing than traditional pulpit preaching.
