In an episode of “The Equipping Station,” host Byron Easterling interviews author and podcaster Jan Johnson to explore the inspiration behind her Substack publication and podcast, “Just talking about Jesus.”
Jan explains that her current faith-based project emerged as a direct calling from God, after she wrote seven books and produced over 125 episodes for a previous, broader podcast called “Women of the Northwest.”
She praises Substack as a more meaningful, personable alternative to traditional social media, allowing her to connect deeply with an unexpectedly large audience hungry for authentic conversations about faith.
Driven by a desire to build real community, Jan messages each new subscriber personally.
Beyond her writing and podcasting, Jan shares a personal passion to highlight the “who” behind her work: she is an avid flutist who recently joined her local Columbia River Symphony.
