Kevin Thorsell

Campus Ministry Director, Challenge

Kevin got into campus ministry during his second year as a student at San Diego State University. Although his dream was to become a musician, God redirected his plans by giving him a picture on his heart of thousands of students joyfully turning from sin and worshipping Jesus. After graduating, Kevin spent a year as a missionary in East Asia before joining the Challenge campus ministry staff at San Diego State University. Kevin is passionate about challenging college students to give their whole lives to Jesus and use them for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. Him and his wife Dana have 4 children, and regularly have young adults living in their house to give around the clock discipleship training. Extreme sports such as skateboarding, dirt biking and snowboarding have always been his go to hobbies, and he currently rides BMX on the side.
