Jonathon M. Seidl has been telling stories his whole life. In fact, Jon has written over 10,000 posts in his lifetime, first after helping start the successful news website TheBlaze and then as the editor in chief of the popular nonprofit I Am Second. He’s worked with some of the biggest names in media, including Glenn Beck, Kirk Cameron, Chip and Joanna Gaines, and Arthur Brooks, but now writes and speaks all across the country on the power of storytelling, radical vulnerability, faith, mental health, and Gospel-centered addiction recovery. His first book, “Finding Rest,” became a national bestseller in several categories and a top 100 book on Amazon. His latest book, “Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic,” is his radically vulnerable story of being the Christian who became an alcoholic, his climb out of addiction, and how others can break free not just from substances but from all of life’s entanglements. Shortly after its release, the book became the top new release in addiction recovery on Amazon. He lives in Frisco, TX, with his wife and two young children and leads the nonprofit ministry he started based on his work called Veritas Recovery. He holds a Bachelors in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics from The King’s College (NYC) and a Masters in Theological Studies from Southwestern Seminary.
