Jane is a pastor, author, and the founder of bU Women — the movement inside Futures that trains and releases women leaders across four countries — and the founder of Futures Leadership College, a degree-level program for leaders and church planters with colleges in the USA, Australia, and soon Indonesia.
She has been on staff at Futures for thirty years, pastoring alongside Ashley since they became the senior pastors in 2000. She speaks at conferences across Australia, the US, the UK, and Asia, and mentors a wide circle of emerging female leaders year-round.
On a platform she is unmistakable — a powerful, prophetic preacher who is also hilarious. Her teaching is marked by scripture, honesty, humour, power, and an allergy to performative faith.
More than anything, Jane raises people. As Ashley’s co-leader she has inspired campus pastors, their wives, and women throughout the church to rise into leadership — to be bold and full of authority while never losing their femininity. Ask any Futures pastor who they call — and who their wife calls — when they need wise advice and direction, and Jane’s name comes up first.
Jane is the mother of three adult sons — all of them now in ministry, serving God in different parts of the world — and the glam-ma of seven.
