About

I’m a 33 year-old pastor living and working in Sweden. I once used to work in the IT-business, at first as a support tech at Crossnet, before I was asked to join Anoto. I had a ball (most of the time), working with some of the brightest people around.

A few years ago I decided to take a break and think about the next step to take, and decided to make a change of course in my life – that’s when I started to study theology and leadership at SALT at Örebro theological semniary. I was ordained as pastor in EFK (a Swedish denomination with baptist roots) in September of 2007 and has also been working as pastor in Korskyrkan Uppsala.

I have a passion for the church and spend a lot of time, thinking about how to stay relevant and at the same time remain faithful to the Word of God and the teachings of Jesus. A while ago I was asked about what subjetcs I enjoy speaking on. There is one thing that I love – the Kingdom of God.

Some of my main influences are Lesslie Newbigin, Dallas Willard, Richard Foster and Henri Nouwen to mention a few. I also carry with me a great experience and memories from New Life church in Stockholm and Livsglädje Landskrona.

Creed and confession I believe in Jesus Christ, the only son of God Eternally begotten of the Father God from God light from light true God from true God of one being with the Father and through Him all things were made for us and for our salvation He came down from heaven by the power of the Holy Spirit and He was made man for our sake He was crucified He suffered death but on the third day He arose again and He ascended into heaven He is seated at the right hand of the Father but He will come again to judge the living and the dead His kingdom will have no end
