My wife's 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee did the same thing a few years ago. Long story short, it was the camshaft position sensor. On the 6 cylinder engine, it is located on the driver's side of the back of the engine where the transmission bell housing bolts to the engine block. Hope this helps.
Answer I drive an 89 Jeep grand Wagoneer with the 360 motor. I was having the same problem with mine and I was so frustrated I was ready to scrape the jeep. I found a mechanic that told me to change the ECM module. It is a 4"square silver box on the drivers fender. Since I change that my jeep has never stalled due to the heat. I hope this fixes the problem. If it does not you will need to repair or replace the distributer The ECM module operates the distributer.

When it's cold the car will start but when I put it into gear it often stalls Why?
Because when the engine is sitting there not warmed up with any fluids running through the components, and suddenly it gets put into gear, it stalls to send a warning that the engine is still cold..always warm up a vehicle when the weather is cold! ALWAYS! even a new car, if its cold you must let the car work itself into driving conditions....try running a mile with absolutely no liquid running through you, see how many times YOU stall..
