Strang has also been recognized by Time magazine in the 2005 list of the “Top 25 Evangelicals in America.” Referring to Charisma as a “lead publication that chronicles the fast-growing charismatic movement,” Time said Strang “[had] become powerful enough to wrangle a Bush interview.” His book publishing division has seen eight books on the New York Times best-seller list: The Faith of George W. Bush, Shadowmancer, The Maker’s Diet, The Threshing Floor, The Final Move Beyond Iraq, Fasting, 7 Pillars of Health and 23 Minutes in Hell.
Strang is also known as a strong supporter of Israel and was involved when Christians United for Israel was organized in early 2006. He now serves as director for the region serving Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina, and has organized several Night to Honor Israel events featuring John Hagee as speaker in several southern states.
Among his many awards, Strang has received an honorary doctorate from Lee University in 1995 and has also been nominated as Entrepreneur of the Year.
In 1973, as a University of Florida senior, he won the prestigious William Randolph Hearst Journalism Award.
He has been married to Joy since 1972. They have two sons, Cameron and Chandler.
