About The Author

Steven C. Hinton is a pastor, Christian counselor, chaplain, and ministry leader who has spent years walking alongside individuals, couples, families, first responders, and fellow pastors through some of life's most challenging moments. His ministry has focused on helping people navigate crisis, grief, marriage struggles, spiritual growth, leadership challenges, and personal restoration through the practical application of biblical truth.

A former paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division and a veteran of law enforcement and corrections, Steven brings a unique perspective to ministry, combining real-world experience with a deep commitment to pastoral care. His background has allowed him to serve people in high-stress environments while remaining grounded in the hope and wisdom found in Scripture.

Steven has lived in a blended family for more than thirty-five years alongside his wife, and together they have been blessed with five children, twelve grandchildren, and one Yorkie. Those years of family life, ministry, and service have shaped his conviction that people need both truth and compassion, especially during life's most difficult seasons.

He currently serves in pastoral ministry, as an reserve deputy sheriff, and chaplain in Arkansas, where he continues to counsel, teach, mentor, and equip others for faithful service.

Through Steadfast Shepherd Press, Steven is committed to developing biblically grounded, practical resources that help pastors, chaplains, counselors, and Christian leaders serve with wisdom, courage, and compassion.

"For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations."
— Psalm 100:5 (NIV)
