Shane Cunningham

Shane W. Cunningham writes for one purpose: to equip believers for the battles they face, whether in the world or in the spirit. His work is a call to action, encouraging Christians of all ages to stand firm in their faith and live with courage.

For his younger readers, he creates fast-paced, action-packed adventures. He began writing the Luke Carter Thriller series, including Serpent's Tooth and Ghost Fleet, because he wanted to give his own kids the kind of exciting stories he wished he had growing up. These novels are designed not just to entertain, but to instill biblical principles of loyalty, honor, and the importance of doing what is right, even when the world stands against you.

For adult Christians, Shane's mission of discipleship is more direct. In his book on Spiritual Warfare, he draws on a deep understanding of scripture to provide practical, powerful tools for believers. His goal is to help Christians recognize the enemy's tactics, stand firm in their faith, and claim the victory they have in Christ.

This mission of faith in action extends far beyond the page. Together with his wife, Jessica, Shane runs 7 Benih Ministry, a non-profit dedicated to being a light in the world by building orphanages and churches in Indonesia. The same values of service, fighting for the vulnerable, and being a light in the darkness that define his books are the principles they live by every day.

Shane and his family live in San Antonio, Texas.
