Dr. Johnson and his wife Lynette are veteran missionaries to
Thailand, serving there since 1986. Their work has always sought
to integrate both church planting as well as a concern for the
whole person. Over the years they have helped in two new church
plants and co-pastored a developing work with a particular focus
on building reproducing small groups. During the
past four years they have worked at developing a house
church network in a series of five slum communities. This has
involved children's clubs and holistic ministry to these communities
as well. Dr. Johnson has also helped to found two different programs
run through local churches that help to provide school scholarships
for poor children.
At a regional level Dr. Johnson serves on a variety of strategic
committees charting the future of missions, especially among
unreached people groups. He and his wife serve as Program Directors
for the Institute of Buddhist Studies at the Asia Pacific Center
for the Advancement of Leadership and Mission (APCALM) in Baguio,
Philippines and assist the Asia Pacific leadership team with
the Strategic Church Planting Initiative which focuses on developing
new church planting teams for least reached people groups. His
research interests include leadership in Thai slums and church
planting among unreached people groups.
