Jeremy D. Johnson has spent more than 40 years in publishing, a lifetime engaging Scripture, and a career that has impacted readers worldwide.
He began his career in technical education publishing, where he spent a decade in graphic design, brand development, and executive leadership before moving into inspirational and Christian publishing. There he held roles in sales, digital marketing, and international business development before entering the executive ranks.
As Vice President and Group Associate Publisher for Thomas Nelson’s Bible Group, Jeremy led one of the most recognized Bible publishing divisions in the world. Under his leadership, the division produced a wide range of editions for diverse audiences and pioneered innovations in format and delivery — including dramatized audio products and distinctive packaging — that extended the Bible’s reach across generations.
At The Gideons International, serving as Director of Scripture Publishing and Procurement, Jeremy oversaw the manufacture of Bibles in 50 countries and distribution of hundreds of millions of them in 120 languages across more than 200 countries and territories. His work streamlined product development, resolved complex logistical and regulatory challenges, reduced costs by tens of millions of dollars, and produced unprecedented growth in the organization’s global reach.
As Executive Vice President and COO of Oasis International, Jeremy spearheaded the development of a contextualized publishing program built around the needs of African readers, authors, and the African book-selling industry. The program’s flagship title, the Africa Study Bible, has sold more than 150,000 copies in two languages. He led Oasis’s staff, which resided in five countries and nine time zones, in publishing work centered on empowering local authors and producing resources that addressed the specific cultural, educational, and discipleship needs of the African continent.
As President and Founder of Global Publishing Partners, Jeremy leads a dedicated team of publishing professionals in building its multiple imprints and books that reach a wide range of audiences. He provides strategic consulting across the breadth of the publishing industry and helps organizations find the best international printing solutions for their needs. He is also a published author, with his debut devotional, Walking with Wisdom, released in 2026.
Jeremy’s drive comes from his conviction that the right resource, well made and well placed, changes people. He finds particular satisfaction in helping authors, nonprofits, and businesses reach audiences they could not as well otherwise.
Jeremy and his wife, Amy, live in Nashville, Tennessee, and have raised three children: Benjamin and Noah, who also live in Nashville, and Rachel, who lives in the Northeast with her husband, Hunter.
