Global Ambassador, Center for Mission Mobilization, Fayetteville, AR
Steve has a passion for developing laborers to reach the world for Christ. He has been involved with many different collegiate ministries and served as Pastor of Students and Missions at University Baptist Church (1983-1986). In 1986 he founded Student Mobilization, which focuses on evangelizing and discipling college students in the U.S. and abroad. In 1999 he co-founded The Traveling Team with Todd Ahrend. In 2001 he turned these ministries over to the next generation of leadership to launch the Center for Mission Mobilization (CMM) (formerly The BodyBuilders), which seeks to "engage, equip, and connect believers to their most strategic role in completing the Great Commission." From 2004-2012, in addition to leading the CMM, he was the Mobilization Director for the US Center for World Mission. Steve has a Master's in Biblical Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary and a Doctorate of Ministry in Church and Parachurch Executive Leadership from Denver Seminary. He has authored four books—The Fuel and the Flame: Ten Keys to Ignite Your Campus for Jesus Christ, Brown Like Coffee: For Students Who Think Outside the Box, The God Ask: A Fresh, Biblical Approach to Personal Support Raising, and Viewpoints: Fresh Perspectives on Personal Support Raising. He resides in Fayetteville, AR, with his family.
