ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Steve Saint grew up on Ecuador in close community with the Waodani. His father, Nate Saint, was one of five missionaries martyred in their attempt to be friend the Waokani. After graduating from Wheaton College, Steve launched several successful businesses. He had also been a missionary in West Africa, Central America and South America. At the request of the Waodani elders, he returned to the Amazon in 1995 along with his family. Steve's experiences living in the jungles led him to establish I-TEC, a nonprofit organization that assists the "hidden church" in its journey toward independence, self-sustenance and maturity.
