WHO JOHN TURNER IS — LIVE TOUR
A TRUE STORY OF SURVIVAL THROUGH GOD’S POWER
My name is John Turner. I am hard of hearing, a single father of two beautiful sons, an author, and a speaker. I grew up in Boston’s Orchard Park projects in Roxbury, Massachusetts.
- At three years old, I lost most of my hearing after a serious illness. I faced bullying because of my hearing and speech and struggled to be understood. My childhood also included losing my mother and living through difficult circumstances.
- At ten years old, before the gangs became part of my life, something happened that I would never forget.
- While I was alone in a park in Orchard Park, my body and voice locked. I could not move or speak. Something powerful happened inside me that I did not understand at the time.
- As I grew older, I survived gun violence and faced gangs, loss, and other moments that could have taken my life. During moments of danger, powerful warnings rose inside me, alerting me when I needed to move. I know those warnings came from God’s power living inside me. That power will never go away.
- Today, I am sharing my life in my own words through my book, When the Warning Comes, I Move!, and my live tour. I want you to understand what I survived, what happened inside me, and the father, author, and speaker I am today.
This event is for anyone who wants to hear my true story. A voice interpreter will be present. There will be time for questions, and books will be available for purchase and signing.
