Jesus Plan To Change The Planet

For over 45 years, Dr. John Tolson has dedicated his life to mentoring adults and students in their spiritual journeys. Through The Gathering, the discipleship ministry he founded, nearly one million people have been impacted by his leadership and teaching.
John’s deepest desire is to help people become the leaders God created them to be-thriving in family, life, and work. He has served as a spiritual mentor to business leaders, celebrities, and professional athletes, and he pioneered one of the first NBA team chaplain programs. His influence has reached teams such as the Houston Rockets, the Orlando Magic, and the Dallas Cowboys.
He is the author of Take a Knee and co-author of The Four Priorities-books that challenge and equip people to become disciples who make disciples. John holds a Master of Divinity from Columbia Seminary, a Doctorate from Fuller Seminary, and also studied at the L’Abri Fellowship in Switzerland with Francis Schaeffer.
He and his wife, Punky, live in Dallas and are proud grandparents to three adorable grandchildren.
