Jonathan “JP� Pokluda is the Lead Pastor of a 145 year old Baptist church in Waco, TX, Harris Creek. Prior to moving to Waco in 2019, he was previously the leader of the largest weekly young adult gathering in the country. Although JP was raised in church, he didn’t come to understand the grace of the Gospel until his early twenties. This ignited a desire in him to inspire the next generation to radically follow Jesus Christ and unleash them to change the world. He spends a lot of time helping older generations understand and disciple younger generations.

JP is the author of several best-selling books, including Welcome to Adulting, Outdated, and his most recent release Why Do I Do What I Don’t Want to Do?, a book written to help readers o

Quotes by Jonathan (JP) Pokluda  (?)
Quotes are added by the ŷ community and are not verified by ŷ.

“You see, when you marry someone, they do become “the one.� They’re the one you’ve committed to love for the rest of your life. The Bible even says that the two of you together become one (Mark 10:7�8). And they will still be the one when they gain weight, lose weight, lose their job, get cancer, or make mistakes. It’s not magical, but that’s what makes it wonderful. It means you’re accepted and loved and secure in your relationship despite your flaws. It means you’ll always pursue each other and work to reconcile any disagreements, because that’s what you’ve taken a covenantc vow to do. In other words, it sounds a lot like our relationship with Christ.”
Jonathan Pokluda, Outdated: Find Love That Lasts When Dating Has Changed

“If you’re looking for a “soul mate,� what you’re really looking for is Jesus. He actually is perfect, and is the only one who can truly satisfy your soul. Love Jesus first, with all your heart, and then find someone who loves him just as much and marry that person. Or, if you don’t marry, you’ll still be OK—because you’re not looking for someone else to make you complete.”
Jonathan Pokluda, Outdated: Find Love That Lasts When Dating Has Changed

“The only reason we should date is to get married. We date because God gave us the gift of marriage, and we’re trying to get there. That simple statement has some serious implications. If you don’t want to be married, don’t date. If you’re not ready to be married right now (or in the very near future), then don’t date right now.”
