In this powerful episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Jon Adams, a partner in a billion-dollar wealth management firm, for one of the most heartfelt and faith-filled conversations in the series. Jon opens up about growing up in his grandfather’s truck, learning grit and integrity on the family sod farm, and discovering entrepreneurship through pure initiative long before he built a career in finance.
The heart of this conversation centers on unimaginable loss. At age 34, Jon’s wife, Janelle, passed away suddenly, leaving him to raise four young children alone. What follows is a story of grace and divine timing; of friends and family who showed up when he could not stand on his own, and of faith that deepened through tragedy. Jon shares sacred experiences that reshaped his understanding of God’s presence, the power of community, and the beauty of second chances when he later met and married singer-songwriter Callie Reed.
This is an episode about faith in the dark, love that endures, and the quiet miracles that follow when you keep walking toward the light.
