John grew up in the Southern Baptist church and came to a conviction of Reformed beliefs in college. While working on his Master's degree in Voice Performance as an operatic tenor, he and his now-wife Elizabeth reconnected over Facebook. They were married in Bloomington Reformed Presbyterian Church in 2017. In 2018, 2020, and 2022, God blessed their family with three beautiful daughters.

John teaches Music at Seven Oaks Classical School in Ellettsville, Indiana and serves as the Music Master Teacher for Hillsdale College's Barney Charter School Initiative. He is a student at RPTS in Pittsburgh, PA.
