  • Rare Depth, Genuine Warmth and Deep Understanding

    Jonathan's approach to deep and complex issues is profoundly effective. His honed skills as a seasoned interviewer are paired with a deep, sensitive humanity, in a combination that is indeed rare. I would highly recommend The Fatherhood Challenge to anyone, man or a woman, who wants to know the inner workings of men, fatherhood, and (spiritual or not) leadership.
