Gary Roe
Hi. My name is Gary.

My story began with a childhood of sexual abuse and numerous other losses. When my life began to unravel as a teen, another family took me in and changed the trajectory of my life. My healing journey began.
Eager to help others heal and grow, my heart turned outward. Over the next three decades, I served as a campus minister, a church-planting missionary in Japan, an entrepreneur in Hawaii, and a pastor. I'm currently work as a writer, speaker, and hospice chaplain.
After walking through deep valleys with thousands of people, I can say the following with confidence:
• We've all been wounded
• Healing isn't for sissies
• We’re all designed for impact
• The world needs us
• We must heal
I'm here to help. I'm no guru or master -

I'm a lifelong hispanophile, with a passion for Andalusia, all of it, but in particular the beguiling city of Córdoba and the glorious coast of Cádiz.
You can expect Spain and sunshine and sea and beach and snowstorms and octopi and wildness and birds and travel and wonder as the backdrop to my characters' lives.
I love to explore relationships in all their layered complexity. That's what my books are about: who we are and how we live and love.
The pain and the joy. The living and the dying. The love and the hope.
My next book comes out in June 2026. -
