We realized we never formally introduced you all to MeLissa Houdmann, Shea's wife, longtime officemate, and now officially a staff member of GotQuestions.org. She's pretty great 🙂   MeLissa was raised in Iowa where her parents managed Raccoon River Bible Camp, a Christian summer camp for kids and teens. She enjoyed her childhood very much and learned the value of hard work. As a child, she accepted God's gift of salvation and began growing in Him.   MeLissa later attended Calvary Bible College in Kansas City, MO, receiving a degree . . .

Born in rural Pennsylvania, Gwen moved to Colorado Springs at the age of seven and happily calls it home. Spending her college years in Spokane, WA at Whitworth University made Gwen extra-grateful for the sunshine and beauty of Colorado. She also feels blessed to live so close to her parents. Though Gwen's sister decided to move back to Pennsylvania, she still enjoys watching her three nephews grow up from afar. Gwen graduated from Whitworth in 2007 with a degree in English—Writing, hoping to write for a Christian ministry. But God had other . . .

Dianna was an Air Force brat born in Alaska and moved around for the next decade until her family landed in Colorado. She grew up in a non-religious home and was quite baffled about the whole "God thing" until she started working at a tourist trap in Gunnison, CO during her sophomore year of college. The owner found out she had no belief system and from that moment, he was on a mission to teach her about the saving grace of Christ. It only took two years to convince her that God was the real deal and definitely Someone worth living for. Through . . .

Managing editor and second-longest on the job, Kevin's up. Kevin was born in Winona Lake, Indiana, but his family moved to Kansas City, Kansas, when he was 9 years old.

Beth has been with GotQuestions longer than the rest of us (other than Shea, of course), so she's next in line for this feature … Beth was born in Portland, OR, and except for five years in exile in Spokane, WA, lived there until she graduated from college. Her dream was to be an astronaut, and she went into Air Force ROTC to that end, but didn't find out until her senior year that astronauts can't have heart murmurs. Even little ones that you actually have to tell the doctor about before he hears it. Her greater dream was to help people, although . . .

As founder, President, and CEO of Got Questions Ministries, we figured he should go first... Born in Corpus Christi, Texas and spending some growing up years in Grand Junction, Colorado, Shea received his bachelor's degree in Biblical Studies and his master's degree in Christian Theology from Calvary Bible College and Calvary Theological Seminary in Kansas City, MO. He also met his wife—MeLissa—there. God gave Shea and MeLissa the dream for Got Questions Ministries in December 2001. It was a ministry that would match Shea's love for technology, . . .
