Stephen Nylen is a fulltime Street Preacher of Frontline Street Ministry in Grand Rapids, Michigan, a street ministry he founded a decade ago. He is also the Veterans Chaplain for Equine Assisted Development of the Great Lakes. Stephen is sent out as an evangelist by the Reformed Evangelistic Fellowship and is a member of Harvest Orthodox Presbyterian Church. Stephen is the joyful husband of the beautiful Jessica Nylen and the proud father of 4 wonderful daughters (one through adoption) and the grandfather to 3 grandsons. You can find Stephen in various contexts in the streets of Grand Rapids as he and his team evangelize, minister and disciple in the public square and herald the glad tidings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
In this podcast, Stephen describes how, on active duty in the Army, he came to amazing faith in Christ and how he loves to share the Gospel with anyone who will listen. He is joyous in his calling to be a "street preacher" and longs for all people to come to faith in Christ. He also briefly shares how he amazingly uses the example of horses in reaching the hearts of veterans (and others) with Jesus' grace and truth. Anyone who hears Stephen's story will be challenged either to come to faith in Christ yourself or, if you already are a Christ-follower, to do more to spread the Word to those who don't yet know Him.
