A platform for Christian growth and ministry

Hello, I’m John! Over the years, I’ve been encouraged by friends and leaders worldwide to share my teachings and use my gifts in Christian ministry. Now, I’ve decided to do just that through Life Initiatives, an online platform where I can connect with a wider audience.

After stepping down from my position as a lead pastor, I felt compelled to use my gifts in different ways. In the process I recognized the challenges that taxi drivers face and became one of the initiators of an association gathering app drivers. Through my involvement there I became one of the founders of a company with a new taxi app designed to provide better conditions for drivers, serving as a counterpoint to major players like Uber and Bolt. These efforts reflect my belief that fairness and dignity in work are essential expressions of our faith. Simultaneously, I supported a start-up company where I serve on the advisory board and work part-time with customers and staff, aiming to be God’s witness in the business world.

In early 2022, I was part of initiating a support ministry that brought over 300 Ukrainian refugees to Sweden, assisting them in their integration into Swedish society.

Despite the variety of these challenges, my passion for teaching about Jesus Christ and helping others grow spiritually remained constant. This passion is at the heart of Life Initiatives. Here, I delve into topics I’m passionate about, such as multicultural and intercultural aspects of life and ministry, leadership, and “followership”. I aim to help others ground every initiative in life through their relationship with God, people, and oneself, all through inspirational messages, stories, teachings and experiences.
I invite you to join this journey.

Let’s explore and grow together with Life Initiatives.

Best, John
