Jonathan Goode is a husband of one wife and a father of three children. He is fluent in dad jokes, losing his keys, and stepping on Legos. As a minister, he spends his days talking about grace, faith, and hope. His three children offer him many opportunities to practice all three while breaking up fights and reminding others to wipe after hearing the toilet flush. Jonathan holds a graduate degree in theology, a bachelors degree in political science, and is currently working on a doctorate in discipleship ministry. None of this really matters but that many degrees makes him sound trustworthy, huh?! He and his wife Ashley together lead Fall & Be Free which exists to help people follow Jesus for a lifetime.

Back in the saddle with my beautiful and amazing wife to discuss this crazy adventure called life. Let's Gooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

My name is Jon Roberts. I am a realtor with Chelle Realty, LLC out of Dublin, Georgia. I am married to my beautiful wife of 5 years Hayley Roberts. We have two incredible daughters together - Vayda (age 3) May (age 2). It’s been a wild ride to Dublin, Georgia for sure. In my life personally, I’ve been to two rehabs by the age 17, dropped out of high school in 10th grade, and struggled with depression, trauma, shame, & deep insecurities as a adolescent and young adult. I covered it up with self medicating. I was lost. I was bound up. The 2nd program was Breaking Free Inc. At the time in my life it is exactly what I needed. In this episode I discuss the program in detail but more so focus on this healing journey I am still on in life. I get very honest about moments where I’ve failed incredibly and had to face the consequences of those decisions. More importantly I got to share the moment I believe I saw in depth what my bottom looked like. I ended up becoming the program director of Breaking Free, Inc for 3 years. I got to work extensively with young men struggling with addiction. There were MANY ups & downs. Lots of life lessons and relationships established.Really this is a partial glimpse into my story and how I got to Dublin. I hope everyone enjoys this and maybe find some encouragement through it. I am incredibly thankful that I got to have this conversation with Eric Bland on the Ruthlessly Curious Podcast!
