Minister Tajhinea Jones
Tajhinea Jones is a proud wife to Jonathan Jones. She is also a licensed and ordained Minister of the Gospel. She’s the founder of Devotion in Motion, a faith based ministry created to encourage believers to live out their faith daily, Not just in word, but in action. With a heart for discipleship and spiritual growth, Tajhinea is passionate about helping people deepen their relationship with God and walk confidently in their God given calling.
Professionally, She currently serves in ministry as a Children and Family Ministries Coordinator, where she works closely with children, families, and volunteers to cultivate spaces that are spiritually enriching, biblically grounded, and welcoming to all. Tajhinea is also pursuing her Master of Divinity, further equipping herself for ministry leadership, teaching, and theological formation.
Devotion in Motion was founded out of Tajhinea’s personal journey of faith, learning what it means to move when God calls, trust Him in seasons of uncertainty, and remain devoted even when the path isn’t clear. What began as obedience became a ministry centered on worship, community, discipleship, and real life faith.
Her prayer is that Devotion in Motion would be a place where people feel seen, encouraged, challenged, and reminded that faith is not passive it’s active, lived, and continually moving.
