About

I'm Jason Martin. I'm not a pastor, and I'm not a counselor. I'm a Christian who loves Jesus and loves the church, and I've spent my career in IT. For years that work has been at a company that treats people for addiction and mental health struggles. You can't do that work and stay unchanged.

On the Line is where I'm writing about what I've seen: the struggling mind, the faithfulness of God in the dark, and the way a church can either wound people or sit with them. These essays are the road toward a book, It All on the Line.

If you're carrying something heavy, you are not a project and you are not a problem to be solved in a hallway. You are a person. And if you are in crisis, call or text 988.
