Rich Coffeen lives in Deerfield, IL with the wife of his youth, Therese. They share seven beautiful children in their crown. A reverend in the PCA, Rich currently pastors the youth of North Shore Chinese Christian Church. He and his family have dedicated themselves to cross-cultural ministry, serving as missionaries in Japan for a couple years, and to Chinese communities in the States. Rich’s mission work and love for the science fiction genre inspired him to write books which show Christians victoriously bearing the name of Christ to every planet and star.
