About Longing for More

The Longing for More podcast with Vona Johnson explores our deep longing for more of Jesus Christ. Through honest conversations and personal reflections, Vona encourages Christians to strengthen their faith and answer God’s call to live MORE fully for Him and the life He created us to live. As we seek Him first through Scripture and prayer, we see more clearly that our souls’ true longing isn’t for what this world offers—it’s for a deeper and more authentic relationship with Jesus and the people He brings into our lives.

[…] And honestly, that was a lesson in and of itself, because it brought me back to the thing I was really looking for. Israel couldn't satisfy my longing for Jesus, because Jesus isn't confined to Israel. He isn't more present there than he is here. So was the trip worth it? Absolutely. I'm still working on the words to describe what this trip meant to me, But I know this. I didn't find Jesus in Israel in a way that I can't find him here.
