Marketing, Ministry, and Marriage | JB Bionat | Episode #261
This week the BeatiDudes - Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein -welcome JB Bionat, Marketing & Communications Director at St. Ann. JB shares a winsome conversion arc: cradle Catholic to questioning student, then a reasoned return to the Church through scripture study, history, and a lived encounter with Jesus. Along the way: Aggie hospitality, ministry in the workplace, late-night adoration, grad studies at UD, a stint at Word on Fire, and the joyful story of meeting his wife at St. Ann. We also “prep” JB for new-dad life with a hilariously helpful quiz and a round of Blessed Are the Joke Makers. Humor + holiness = home base.
Highlights
• Aggie roots - Hospitality that feels like home; why a random campus tour sealed the deal for Texas A&M.
• From rules to relationship - Bible study (Ephesians), Breakaway invites, and asking better questions about Jesus.
• Thinking it through - JB’s route from monotheism vs. polytheism to the historicity of the Church (“one true church founded by Christ”).
• Undivided life - Consulting career, witnessing with charity at work, and mid-week adoration near a client site.
• Formation season - Pandemic discernment → Master’s in Pastoral Ministry (UD) → Word on Fire Institute marketing → St. Ann.
• Love - Women’s Night of Worship, a camera, one providential photo, and a two-year courtship to marriage.
• New-Dad Readiness Quiz - Midnight snacks, diaper math in the Target parking lot, and the proper lullaby (hint: “Bohemian Rhapsody”).
• Game time - Blessed Are the Joke Makers - sour school-teacher edition.
