Significant Life
Build your life on what mattes most, with Jen and Marcus Jones. Living a significant, abundant life CAN happen...even amidst: …the stress of building a career …the throws of parenting …the hope and hardship of marriage …the community around you No matter which season of life you’re currently in, abundance is waiting to break out! It can be wild and endless and a lot of FUN. But to truly and abundantly live, we have to shift our focus onto Jesus who transforms all. Jen & Marcus Jones help you make this shift. When God unexpectedly disrupted their abundant and purposeful life inside the structure of full-time ministry, they joyfully redirected their fire and passion from church ministry to life ministry with YOU. Jen & Marcus have overcome disappointing challenges and turned them into pure joy. Their desire is to partner with Jesus to see you achieve the same in your life. “Joy turns our hearts from striving to singing and dancing.” Jen & Marcus Jones
