Jonathan and Elizabeth KegansJonathan Kegans was born October 18, 1964, in San Francisco, CA. He is the youngest of three children born to Donald and Lucinda Kegans. In 1966, his family moved to Yonkers, NY, where Jonathan spent the next 14 years. In 1980, Jonathan began playing around with an old guitar that belonged to his mother , finding escape from the pains and trials of life through playing music. In 1981, Jonathan moved to Colorado, where he graduated from Thomas Jefferson H.S. in 1982. Jonathan spent the next three years experimenting with a number of things, trying to find excitement and purpose for living. All of these experiments led him to emptiness and despair without any peace or contentment.

Jonathan accepted Jesus Christ (Yeshua) as his Savior and Lord after a near-death experience in 1985. He began to understand His purpose and destiny in loving and serving God (Yahweh), and in leading worship and helping others discover their identity and destiny in God. Jonathan has found fulfillment in writing songs and leading worship for the last 20 plus years.
