About the author

Mike Treneer grew up in rural England. The son of a Church of England vicar, Mike found it hard as a teenager to relate to church and faith. He came to a personal relationship with Jesus through a Navigator ministry at Loughborough University of Technology. After graduation, Mike married Chris, and they committed their lives to spreading the gospel. In the early 1970s, they led a student ministry in England before starting and developing a Navigator ministry in Nigeria. In 1981 and for the next seventeen years, Mike served as The Navigators' director for Africa before being named international vice president of the ministry. In 2005, Mike was selected as The Navigators' international president. Mike and Chris live in Colorado Springs, Colorado (USA), and have three adult children who are all active in ministry.
