About the Author

Jonathan lives in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, with his wife of fourteen years and their four kids. He serves with the church planting mission Team Expansion, inviting people to follow Jesus through storytelling and heart-focused counseling. In addition to his work with Cambodians, Jonathan also loves learning from and sharing with international teenagers (and their parents), and regularly speaks at events for expat youth. Before crossing the Pacific, Jonathan served as a youth pastor for ten years and worked as a trauma nurse for three. Jonathan felt the pull of international missions from the time he was nine, although he detoured through studies in law and nursing before finally arriving in Asia, his heart’s new home.
