Joe Castillo
Having spoken to hundreds of thousands of people over a period of thirty-two years Joe has mastered the ability to share stories that inspire, motivate and touch the heart. Speaking to children, teens, adults, churches, businesses, and conferences has made him a much-requested storyteller and raconteur. You may laugh, cry, hurt, heal and leave his talks and stories feeling uplifted and filled with a desire to be more than you ever thought you could. Joe's stories are often accompanied by his powerful ArtStory illustrations that capture the eye, the ear and the heart.
A native of Mexico City, Joe grew up surrounded by art and the cosmopolitan culture of an international city. In his teenage years he moved to Florida, attended Ringling School of Art, and graduated from Florida Bible College. Starting his career as a businessman, he founded The Advertising Library, an agency in Knoxville, Tennessee. After 21 years in advertising, he returned to school and received a M.A. in Biblical Studies and M. Div. from Asbury Theological Seminary. Now with his wife Condy, Joe travels speaking and performing full time.
