David and Jonsie Ivey

Truth that Inspires LLC was established in 2018 by David and Jonsie Ivey. Our mission is to encourage Christians in their daily walk, share the hope of Christ to those who don’t know Him, and provide a deeper understanding of Scripture. So many people today are walking around lost and defeated. We want to share with them the joy we have found by living in obedience to Christ. We provide motivational speaking engagements, in-depth Biblical seminars and various Christian and motivational resources. In addition, our website, truththatinspires.com, provides regular articles featuring Biblical insights, book/movie reviews and more.

David and Jonsie were married in 1986 and have two adult children who are both also married. They have two grandchildren who keep them on their toes! They currently live in east central Florida and love to travel the world exploring God’s beautiful creation.
