He is an anointed international speaker. Ogweno maintains that he does not count on his training as a teacher and communicator to do what God has assigned him, but on the inspiration, favour and the Divine discretion.
His burning desire is to see a steady narrowing of the gap between theology and practice. His writings and teachings therefore focus on practical Christianity in everyday life. God has given him unique insights in areas like: leadership; communication; marriage and courtship; conflict resolution; worship; commitment; Stewardship, etc.
He is married to Laura Caroline Ogweno. They have three children—two boys: Victor Ogweno and Jim-Jif Ogweno and a girl: Baraka Norine Ogweno.
Ogweno and his family lives in Skien, Norway.
