Steve Andrews
Steve was born in Memphis, Tennessee, the fifth child in a large, loving family. As a teenager, he spent a year in rural Kenya while his father served at a mission hospital. After graduating high school in the U.S., he attended Wheaton College, where he quarterbacked the football team and earned a degree in Christian Education.
His ministry began with youth, leading the Young Life Club at Glenbard West High School in Illinois and spending seven years in youth ministry at Ward Presbyterian Church in Michigan, where mentors like Dr. Gary Sattler and Dr. Bartlett Hess shaped him.
Steve met Paula Erickson at Ward, and they’ve been married for 35 years. In 1990, they co-founded Kensington Church in Detroit with close friends. Today, it has grown into a global ministry with multiple campuses, over 50 church plants, and nine global partners. Steve enjoys hunting, reading, bragging about his children, and snuggling with his grandkids.
