His institutional affiliation includes significant contributions to doctoral education and research leadership within Nordic theological academia. His research centers on Church History through three interconnected lenses: the role of universities in early Lutheran Reformation doctrine (1517-1521), the critical integration of church history within Reformation theological debates (challenging simplistic sola scriptura interpretations), and the transformative impact of the Reformation on Nordic poor relief systems—culminating in works like Auttamisen vallankumous (Revolution of Relief).
