Meet Your Host
Jim Jansen’s journey started in the heart of the Midwest, as a cradle Catholic in Omaha, Nebraska.
In 1999, while at Benedictine College, an invitation from his roommate to join one of the very first FOCUS Bible studies changed everything. That moment launched an 18-year tenure on staff with FOCUS, where Jim served as a founding missionary at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Later as a team and regional director, Jim helped shape the apostolate’s foundational years of growth.
Jim returned home in 2017 to lead the Archdiocese of Omaha’s strategic efforts in evangelization. Through those years of walking with leaders, he saw firsthand how discouragement and distraction can derail efforts to make disciples.
Sensing a call to come alongside parish and diocesan leaders, Jim launched Anchor Consulting full-time in 2026. He is the host of The EquipCast (a weekly podcast), and a frequent presenter at diocesan gatherings and conferences. Jim and the Anchor Consulting team now serve dioceses and parishes across the country and around the world.
