Jon Owen — Creating Community With No Us & Them

Jon Owen is the Pastor and CEO at Wayside Chapel, leading an incredible team of 140 staff and some 600 volunteers each week.

Jon has dedicated his life to closing the gap on inequality, both living and working amongst some of the most disadvantaged communities in Sydney and Melbourne. Jon is a qualified social worker and prior to Wayside, he built his way up through the organisation Urban Neighbourhoods of Hope, an international not-for-profit organisation specialising in community development and care coordination for families living in poverty. In this role, he shared his family home with those seeking asylum, refugees, people in recovery and ex-prisoners.

In this episode Jon and I danced around the theme and mission of Wayside — Creating a community of no ‘us and them’.

The topics we cover include:
- Serving from a place of self-awareness and not need
- Being real not ideal in our relationships and life
- Parenting and modelling healthy service
- Growing up in Australia as an immigrant

Throughout our talk I was challenged by what Jon shared... so much wisdom and so much truth. Enjoy!
