What is your ministry?
I have been serving as an elder in a local church in Poznan for many years—teaching, preaching, and leading a discipling group in our community. Alongside my wife, I'm involved with pre-marriage counselling. While working full-time in my day job, I'm working part-time at the Baptist Seminary in Warsaw, teaching Ancient Israel History and several courses related to Old Testament Theology. Occasionally, up to a few times a year, I'm invited to speak at youth conferences in Poland. I also love participating in our church's café ministry to welcome people.
When did you trust Christ?
I was raised in a Christian family. My parents were saved when I was about eight years old, and from that point, I began learning a lot about Jesus and the Bible. As a kid, I didn't understand my need for a Savior, and I figured I just needed to do all the good things my parents told me to do. Things changed when I went to high school. I realized that I needed to commit to God fully. It was a complex process, but I left high school fully committed to the Lord.
What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?
In high school, I spent a lot of time thinking about the question, "What should I do as God's servant?" It didn't make sense to me that the only thing for me was to believe in Jesus and trust Him intellectually. Then, finally, a friend showed me how vital it is that we were all created to glorify Him, and that became the main thing I wanted to do with my life. During that same time, the pastor of my church was essential to me. He taught me the need to spread the Gospel and make disciples and encouraged me to attend seminary.
What do you hope to gain from participating?
I have learned so much and met many great people at the Forum. I love how I can learn from and network with other participants. It has been a great blessing for me to be there. My calling from God is to learn and teach, and the Forum has always provided me with a platform to network with my academic peers, which resulted in encouragement to be a better teacher.
What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?
Throughout my life I’ve been involved in many ministries, mainly serving young people in Poland.
Why should someone invest in your ministry?
I am young and passionate. I love the church and I dream of devoting my life to working for it.
