Steve was raised in Indonesia, where his parents planted churches in a jungle tribe. He witnessed the impact of the gospel on their war-like society, a story documented in his father’s missionary classic, Peace Child.
Steve and his wife Arlene moved to Southeast Asia in 1986 to plant churches among a major Muslim unreached people group. Their team developed an innovative and integrative approach to church planting called Lampstand. Steve helped start a center for evangelism, various media ministries, English language schools, and a major “business as mission” project.
Since 1999 Steve has served as President of Pioneers-USA, based in Orlando. Pioneers is a growing international mission movement with over 3,000 members who are impacting more than 500 unreached people groups with the gospel. Steve is the author of “Is the Commission Still Great?” a book that explores some common myths about missions.
The Richardsons are blessed with four daughters and thirteen grandchildren.
