Gary M. Zelenko is a Vietnam veteran, devoted husband, and lifelong follower of Christ whose journey of love and faith inspired Transforming Identity: Renewal Through the Simple Gospel. A former marketing executive, Gary spent decades in business leadership before turning his focus toward ministry and service within his local church community in Wisconsin.

The idea for Transforming Identity was born in 2022 through countless heartfelt conversations between Gary and his wife, Mary, about the enduring power of God’s love and grace. Following Mary’s passing in 2023, Gary dedicated himself to honoring her memory by bringing their shared vision of faith, healing, and renewal to readers everywhere.

In this deeply personal project, Gary shares not only his testimony but also the transformational truth that life in Christ is a story of continual renewal. His writing reflects a warm, authentic faith—one that invites others to experience God’s grace and discover their true identity through the simple Gospel.

When he’s not writing or speaking, Gary enjoys spending time with family, volunteering in ministry, and encouraging others to live out their faith with purpose and compassion.
