"Emptied" Part 1 - Worship in Wynter - Jonathan Pitts

February 28, 2022

Four hours after turning in their manuscript "Emptied", Jonathan Pitts' wife, Wynter, passed away in his arms. With four young girls to raise, Jonathan speaks from a personal place about his confidence in life and death. Jonathan is Executive Pastor at Church of the City in Franklin, Tennessee. He previously served as the Executive Director at the Urban Alternative, the national ministry of Dr. Tony Evans. Jonathan is also carrying on his wife's ministry to tween girls called "For Girls Life You", a bimonthly magazine that equips girls to walk boldly into who God has created them to be, and a resource to their parents to raise strong Christ-following God girls who say yes to His plans for their lives.

Some of the things Jonathan shares: "I am in a new place, but with the same God, which is really comforting." "I do remember thinking I have to take care of my girls. Speaking to them the confidence that I have had all my life that we all have a point of time to live and a point of time to die." He and the girls often sat on the bed singing hymns together, as they had when their mother, Wynter, was alive. He explains, "Worship is everything." Jonathan's family were guest hosts of Parent Compass Season 1 Episode 2 "Discovering Destiny". Click link to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBumACjWDZA

They are related to well-known pastor and radio host, Dr. Tony Evans. The oldest daughter in the Pitts family, Alena, starred in the box office hit movie, "War Room", a movie on how prayer can powerfully change a marriage and the life of a family.
