Know the enemy’s play. Keep your eyes on Jesus.
The battles we face may feel unpredictable, but the enemy’s strategies are remarkably familiar.

More than that it shows you how to stand firm with your eyes fixed on Jesus.

Hi, I’m Jon.
I’m a Christian writer, teacher and leader with a passion for helping people understand Scripture and live it out in the realities of everyday life.
My writing sits at the intersection of biblical truth, spiritual formation and leadership. I’m particularly interested in what happens when faith moves beyond theory and meets disappointment, uncertainty, conflict, change and the everyday choices that shape who we are becoming.
Through my writing and teaching, I want to help people recognise what is shaping them, grow deeper in Christ, and reach heignts they never thought possible.
