Steve HokeGrowing up as a missionary kid in Tokyo, Japan, Steve Hoke committed to lifelong involvement in world evangelization at a young age. Through college, several church ministries, and grad school, he realized his gifting was as an encourager and teacher In serving as a missions professor and director of campus ministries at Seattle Pacific University, director of field training for World Vision International, president of LIFE Ministries (Japan), and then as vice president of training of Church Resource Ministries (CRM), his gift mix has been confirmed. He is a Barnabas, not a barnstorming church planter like Paul.
