Jonathan has always been a questioner/ critical thinker who desires to challenge the status quo, and is not afraid to wrestle with God and others, in a Spirit-led way, in an effort to understand and love his Creator more deeply. Jonathan aims to use his writing and studies to build up the faith of others, help disciples grow further in their understanding of scripture, and to share the truth of the gospel.
 
His hobbies include, but are not limited to, creative writing, playing the piano, enjoying classical and jazz music and listening to interesting podcasts.
