Urbana Archives

The center of gravity of the worldwide church has now shifted to Africa, Asia, and Latin America. This seminar explores how the changing face of the church around the world affects the way we do missions.

Seminar Leader: Steve Strauss

Steve Strauss’ parents played key roles in his growth as a Christian. Steve and Marcia Strauss have three adult children. The Strausses have worked in Liberia, Nigeria, and Ethiopia where Steve helped start three distinct programs to train African pastors, evangelists, teachers and other church leaders. Steve has since completed a PhD in Contextual Theology from Trinity International University and become U.S. Director for SIM (Serving in Mission). Steve enjoys motivating people through the Bible to catch God’s heart of love for every people on earth.
