About The Journey

Life is a journey. 

There are some really high highs and some really low lows. 

But it’s in the very hardest of places where the real decision is made: will we walk out our days with hopelessness or relentlessly pursue God despite our setbacks? 

Jonathan shares his real-life story of love, life, and loss with refreshing vulnerability and engaging candor.
