Jon Zinnel was born and [mostly] raised in northeast Indiana. He has a Bachelor’s Degree in Biblical Studies from Huntington University and is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Biblical Studies from Bethany Theological Seminary.

Although currently taking a break from church work, Jon has spent over eight years in ministry serving first as a part-time youth director at a small Methodist congregation in northeast Indiana before transitioning into his more recent role as an associate pastor of youth at a non-denominational, charismatic church in Richmond, IN.

Jon loves most things in life, but is particularly fond of his wife, Lynn, his growing retro video game collection, his cycling endeavors throughout rural Indiana, and his two tuxedo cats, Pugsey and Vinyl, both of whom favor his wife, probably for good reason.
