About

I was called back from wandering aimlessly for years in August 2022 from a dream and a Bible verse, John 15:18-27.

Meaning of my name...
~ (Joseph) From the Hebrew Yosef meaning "God will give" or "Jehovah shall add"
~ (Carl) was the name of my great grandfather
~ (Woodstrup) is the English translation from the original Danish name Vodstrup. It is also the name of a town in Denmark that my family originated from, which hopefully some day I might be able to visit.

~ Business Owner = Christ Soldier JCD offers Christian Apparel, Gifts, and Artwork.

Formally Creative Solutions JCD "unofficially" started in 2018, but it wasn't called, Creative Solutions. It was called "CRae". What is CRae? I came up with the idea of a mystery gift box set for girls named after my daughter. It had about four or five different items in each box and themes, such as: "My Little Pony", "Care Bears", "Baby Shark", etc. I was just doing this part time, because, I was working a regular full-time job as a warehouse manager. The CRae website is still online. I have also done some random graphic design jobs for people the last 20 years.

Then, "The Virus" hit in 2020 and changed things up a little. I was given the opportunity to put all my creativity to the test. September 1, 2021 is when I officially started working on building what Christ Soldier JCD has become today. A lot of time and hard work has gone into this project. I began with just basic design services, such as: logos, posters, websites, etc.

I added videos and custom products. But, can't forget the most important part!

1. Yahushua for bringing me back to reality.
2. All the volunteers/artists who have provided their time and art to this cause. Thank You! You've helped me to not give up and provide you with some really cool stuff!

Shalom, Joseph (Joe) Woodstrup
Owner/Project Manager

P.S. - I love Yahushua, music, futuristic/space themes, and 80's era substance.

If you're into any of that too, DEFINITELY talk to me! 😉
