Colwell gained national recognition as a conference speaker and trainer who, in addition to numerous national conferences, has been the keynote for state conferences in 25 states. His journey through foster care is woven into powerful insights in his book Love Leaves No Regrets: An Insightful View of Displaced Children through the Eyes of a Former Foster Child.
Convinced that the moral health of a society can be measured by how well it cares for its orphans, Colwell cites selfishness as the root of the foster care crisis and contends that resolve will occur only as communities begin to practice fidelity. He explores this issue in his book A Heavenly View of Displaced Children: Rethinking the Business of Caring.
Additionally, Colwell is the pastor of Love and Order Christian Fellowship in Los Angeles and co-founder of Loving Your Disabled Child. He has conducted marriage and family seminars for 21 years, hosted a daily radio talk show for five years, and as a volunteer chaplain, counseled hundreds of jail and prison inmates over a period of 17 years. He is frequently called upon to provide training and consultation services relating to foster care, adoptions, and independent living.
