Tina Waldrom chats with John Sikkema, who gives some Business Food 4 Thought about reaching business friends for Jesus. John is a well-known, faith filled, business entrepreneur. He is the Executive Chairman of Halftime Australia, and serves notably as the non-executive Board Chairman of Prime Value. Prime Value, together with associated company, Shakespeare Property Group, manages more than $1.5 billion in Australian equities, cash like instruments, commercial property and agricultural assets.
Sharing his faith through business, has not always been John’s number one priority. Through a series of events, and one particular, that equation changed for John. One particular question from the Holy Spirit, sent John on a road to discovering how he could effectively reach his non-Christian, business world for Christ.
John is passionate about encouraging business people to go beyond the usual methods of ‘supporting’ the gospel, to becoming personally involved in sharing the good news. Having felt the real struggle to share his faith and finding a way that works, he is now encouraging people to consider, Food 4 Thought, a tool he has developed.
