founders of the boom network 

Hello, we’re Jeff and Beth Jones! You might know us from Valley Family Church in Kalamazoo, Michigan, or through our Bible Basics books. For over 30 years, we had the joy of pioneering and pastoring Valley, leading together as a husband-and-wife team while raising four incredible kids who all love Jesus, feel called to ministry, and have served alongside us at VFC.

In 2023, we officially passed the leadership baton to our son Eric and daughter-in-law Alexa—an incredible couple who now serve as Lead Pastors of Valley Family Church. Since that time, we’ve continued to focus on encouraging pastors, mentoring leaders, writing and teaching foundational truths, and championing the local church through initiatives like The BOOM Network.

We’re still all-in on the mission—and more convinced than ever that life and ministry are better when we do it together.
