Jaden
Neufeld

Jaden Neufeld
Jaden is mainly going after one thing in life: to (really, really) know Jesus, and to live a life that might help others do the same. He loves making stuff with words. And if somehow, those words can encourage people (his other fascination) — then we’re cooking.
In 2020, he was a part of starting the Canadian Church Leaders Network and planting The Way Church in Vancouver, BC, where he still lives today. Right now, he directs programs for Missional Labs, interviews for Streams Studio, and writes about Jesus’ way for various Christian organizations.
In Jaden’s spare time you might find him misquoting smart dead Christians, getting misty over good poetry or asking new friends (way too) many questions.
