Jonathan is passionate about helping people live in abundant freedom and self-sacrificial love. A writer and popular podcast host, Jonathan and his wife also pastor children at a thriving community church in Kitchener, Ontario. Having spent much of his career in non-profit leadership, Jonathan is a visionary thinker with a strategic mind, who is just as comfortable speaking to large audiences as he is mentoring one-on-one. Raised by missionary parents, living in five countries and being exposed to a broad range of faith traditions, Jonathan teaches from a rich and inclusive Christian framework. A father of three, Jonathan loves dance music, science fiction, good food, dark beer, and long walks on the beach. He was born in New Zealand, so he does know a few things about beaches.
