JKMickelson International
Since 1994, JKMickelson International has been providing custom software development solutions to international Fortune 100 companies as well as to small local businesses. The results have been exceptional with a large number of projects having a useful lifespan of 10 or more years before needing updates or replacement to attend to the client's changing business needs or IT infrastructure.
The resiliency and flexibility needed for each business venture was accurately determined and effectively implemented into lasting solutions that not only included software, hardware, O/S configuration, etc., but also included effective changes to business processes to maintain system integrity, reduce workflow and effort, measurably increase productivity, reduce support costs, and increase profits by as much as 1,100% (or from $1,000,000 to $12,000,000) monthly.
Jonathan K Mickelson founded the company in 1994 at the Lord's direction, and he has served his customers with dedication, honor and distinction as one serving before a Holy God. He has been recognized internationally for his ability to deliver world-class, corporate-to-corporate solutions in the Fortune 100 realm, while also building interpersonal working relationships of high integrity. Being highly intuitive and creative, Jonathan has continually met the business needs of all interested parties by knowing his own strengths and limitations and the strengths and limitations of others, and then providing sustainable and flexible technical and business process solutions that preserve the client's competitive edge.
In his personal life:
In 1987, Jonathan received Salvation and Redemption through Jesus, the Anointed-One of God. He married later in the same year (a marriage which continues to this day and beyond in full measure). In 1989, he began serving the Lord as integral part of a worship team and in small home group discipleship. Jonathan has served with zeal and distinction in various ministry support roles, including deacon, elder, worship leader as well as pastor and board member of a para-church ministry which ministered educationally to the children of the poor. In 1989, he also began reading the entire Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation on an annual basis, putting the instruction and understanding into personal practice, while voluntarily abstaining from television and secular radio. He has had the privilege of personally leading 30+ people to Salvation in Christ through one-on-one, face-to-face ministry, as well as discipling a number of them. -- All while providing top-notch, industry-recognized professional IT services to his clients without disruption or fail.
In 1997, Jonathan was involved in Blood N Fire ministries and began to establish many quiet back-channel relationships across numerous ministries (in order to learn, encourage, and enjoy a broad Christian fellowship crossing many cultural, social, national, ethnic, linguistic and denominational barriers). By 2001, Jonathan had ministered abroad successfully in Fiji and India, sharing the Love of God, the Good News of Redemption through trust in Jesus, and the testimony of a personal and endearing relationship with our Heavenly Father through Jesus.
In 2003, Pastor Jonathan was called to a specific season of full-time ministry which included Bible Translation and Biblical Lexicography as well as pastoral duties in the field, supporting those who were serving the poor in a desperate, criminally-hardened and life-threatening area of Cobb County, and also ministering to the hurting.
In 2007, Jonathan's primary calling shifted heavily to full-time Bible Translation. His Greek and Hebrew Bible dictionaries are used in an international Bible software package developed and distributed from Greece and is used world-wide. A special hand-crafted edition of the Mickelson Greek and Hebrew Bible dictionaries were lovingly and painstakingly developed for, officially adopted by, and distributed by the Thailand Bible Society in service to their nation. The Library of Congress has received early preview editions of the Mickelson NT Interlinear Translation and the companion NT Greek Dictionary. By 2012, Jonathan had completed 14 full readings of the Old Testament and well more than 50 full readings of the New Testament, not including countless hours of study and research. Even during this season of full-time ministry, Jonathan continued to provide lasting IT solutions to international companies and to small locally owned businesses and ministries as occasions warranted.
Jonathan is also an accomplished musician of the Lord and was invited to participate extensively and to record on the Blood N Fire album titled "Blood N Fire Live!" recorded in 1997 by One Way Productions. He has ministered instrumentally in various cultural and church settings in the U.S. and abroad.
Being foremost a servant of God (as a living son), Jonathan's family has lovingly prospered, and his business practices remain mutually beneficial to business needs, family needs, and to a rare life's calling of an exceptional ministry in Jesus that shall benefit generations, and is already making a significant (but intentionally quiet) impact, even now.
Lest anyone should have any doubt, I, Jonathan K Mickelson, am eternally Redeemed through a personal trust in Jesus Christ, my precious Lord and Savior who died on the Cross, rose again, and now lives, and also abides with me and me in him. I am bought and redeemed with an exquisite price, and called to serve with highest integrity in many capacities. I will not comprise my identity as a Redeemed Kinsman of Jesus Anointed, which is my eternal birthright and my public testimony.
