While the son of a non-Christian father and a rebel against God’s ways, Steve came to Christ through the spiritual influence of his mother and youth pastor. Christ opened his eyes to the truth of the gospel during a spiritual revival at Camp Patmos, a Christian summer camp on Kelly’s Island, Lake Erie, USA. At Bob Jones University and Seminary since 1977, he has been preaching and teaching the Word of God and training young men and women for ministry. He has served Christ there as a professor, administrator, and dean of the Seminary. Steve has been a pastor in four churches in South Carolina and neighboring North Carolina while serving at the University. Sandy, his wife, is his lifelong partner in ministry. They have two sons, two daughters, and ten grandchildren.view less
