I had the absolute joy of talking with Dr. Dave Jones—and what a powerful conversation it was! He shared his personal journey from religion to deep Kingdom revelation, and how a divine encounter opened his eyes to the truth of who we really are in Christ.Dave carries a bold vision to see sons and daughters awakened to their true identity and walk in Kingdom authority—not someday, but now. We talked about leaving behind fear-based thinking, accessing the unseen realm, and living from the spirit as a daily reality.His story is full of heart, hunger, and Holy Spirit fire. Get ready to be stirred!BIO:

HIGHLIGHTS:
- Slapshot to Salvation
A literal slapshot to the face (yes, like broken-nose, nerve-damage kind of slapshot) became the divine wake-up call that pivoted Dave’s life. Sometimes it really does take a hockey puck to the face to hear God clearly.
- Jesus Over Hangovers
At 16, fresh off a state championship and a hangover, Dave had a holy interruption when his brother from Moody Bible Institute asked him if he wanted to keep living like that—or receive Jesus. Hungover or not, Dave said yes to Jesus.
- Grace-Fueled Grit
He barely passed high school, but chased knowledge like a beast and just finished his PhD (hello, Dr. Dave!)—proving that being “not academic” doesn’t disqualify you when God’s the one writing your story.
- Marketing Ministry that Moves Mountains
Dave has been running M is Good for 24 years, managing $1.6 million a month in ad spend for 38 Christian orgs globally. It’s not just marketing; it’s ministry with strategy and Holy Spirit-led messaging.
- Turtle on a Fence Post Wisdom
His favorite analogy: if you see a turtle on a fence post, you know it didn’t get there by itself. That’s how he sees his journey—with God as the one lifting him higher than he could ever climb on his own.
- God doesn’t always pick the obvious candidates—so relax.
Dr. Dave reminds us that God tends to use the least expected people to do powerful things. You don’t have to be a marketing guru to start a Christian marketing business (he sure wasn’t)—you just have to say yes and be willing to...
