Ep 92 with Lina Nielsen: Building the Church When the World Moves On

Faith doesn’t need fame—it needs faithfulness. In this episode, host Christine Caine sits down with Swedish pastor and author Lina Nielsen for an honest conversation about staying steadfast in a world that’s moved on from church. From leading in one of the most secular nations on earth to raising daughters who love Jesus, Lina shares how she’s kept her fire for God through changing seasons, cultural shifts, and challenges in leadership. You’ll be reminded that purpose isn’t built on popularity—it’s built on daily obedience. SHOW NOTES: Rooted for the Long Haul Christine and Lina reflect on 25 years of friendship and ministry—from early youth conferences to building a thriving church in Stockholm. They discuss how staying close to Jesus is the only way to stay the course. Leading in a Secular Culture In a nation where faith is often forgotten, Lina shares what it’s like to lead a church that’s relevant, relational, and reaching people who’ve never walked into a church before. Faithfulness Over Fame Both Christine and Lina talk about choosing obedience when no one’s watching, serving quietly, and resisting the pull toward performance-based ministry. Reaching a Generation Hungry for Meaning As Sweden’s next generation turns from success to significance, Lina describes how young people are rediscovering Jesus—and why authenticity and hope are transforming lives. Empowering Women and Raising Daughters Lina opens up about writing her book, “Secrets of a Sister” and helping young women find identity, confidence, and purpose in Christ—no matter what culture says.
