Jonathan “JP” Pokluda is the Campus Pastor of Watermark Community Church in Dallas, TX and leader of The Porch, the largest weekly young adult gathering of its kind in the country. At The Porch, thousands of people in their twenties and thirties hear the gospel, get equipped, and are unleashed to live out their faith. JP's passion is to share the Gospel with anyone who will listen and equip others to do the same. JP came to understand the grace of the Gospel in his early twenties after being involved in different denominational churches his entire life. This ignited a desire in him to inspire young adults to radically follow Jesus Christ and unleash them to change the world. Most recently, he has seen this passion come out through writing. His book, Welcome to Adulting, offers Millennials a roadmap to navigating faith, finding a spouse, finances, and the future. JP's partner in ministry is his wife of 13 years, Monica, and together they disciple their children Presley, Finley and Weston.
