Juan Valdes has a love for the Lord and a passion to reach both English and Spanish-speaking people with God’s message of redemption and biblical truths. God has blessed Juan with exciting and motivating communication skills, which he enjoys using to encourage and equip believers to know, live, and share what they believe.

Juan is the senior pastor of a Spanish-speaking congregation in Florida and has worked at a Christian school as both a chaplain and a teacher for more than twenty years.

Juan’s educational background includes graduate work at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, master degrees from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary and Logos Graduate School, and a Doctor of Ministry in Apologetics from Southern Evangelical Seminary.

As an educated and experienced teacher of apologetics, Juan has taught Bible and Introduction to Philosophy at the high school level and theology, Bible, and apologetics at the seminary level (in both English and Spanish).

Juan’s passion for teaching biblical apologetics and his ability to effectively communicate in both English and Spanish, makes him a much sought after speaker. He speaks regularly in the greater Miami area, across the country and internationally, at pastors conferences, youth conferences, apologetics conferences, and church services and events.

Juan and his wife, Daisy, have been married twenty-five years and have two adult children, Juan Elias and Jessica. Together, they serve in various areas of ministry in Miami, Florida.
