He hosts the daily radio program Laugh Again* which is broadcast across North America, the UK, and English-speaking Africa.

His long list of accomplishments includes shutting off the TV to listen to his children’s questions (twice), taking out the garbage without being told (once), and convincing his high school sweetheart to marry him (once).

Described as “Dave Barry with a message,” Callaway is a popular speaker for corporations, conferences, camps, cruises, and couples’ retreats. He is a frequent guest on national radio and TV, and partners with Compassion, an international child development agency. Phil’s writings have won more than a dozen international awards.

Callaway started Servant magazine in 1989 with the goal of encouraging, edifying, and educating readers. As a columnist Phil has published hundreds of articles in such publications as Marriage Partnership, Leadership, New Man, Home Life, Decision, and Faith & Friends.

He is based in Canada where he lives with Ramona. Their three adult children are within driving distance, but still come home for meals when they can. He has 14 grandchildren. Apart from hanging out with his family, one of Phil's greatest passions is telling stories that help people laugh and learn about the things that matter most.
