Steventhen is a recording artist, worship leader, author, inspirational, motivational, and national pro-life speaker, and founder of Broken Not Dead Ministries.
His life is the result of the gang-rape of an eighteen-year-old mentally challenged young women. Incredibly, despite his mother’s lack of intellectual ability, homelessness, and a society that was constantly pressuring her to abort him, he survived. However, his mother couldn’t care for him and placed him in foster care, where he was later adopted. He wouldn’t be reunited with his birth mother for more than twenty-seven years.
Despite the brokenness he has experienced, he travels the country, sharing his message of HOPE and RESTORATION for the BROKEN built on the Gospel of Jesus Christ! With courageous inspiration, Steventhen has been transformative as a speaker and worship leader at a variety of events and venues around the country over the last 15+ years.

"Steventhen is an amazing godly man. He was exactly the speaker we needed for a time as this. His life story proved to our attendees that "rape" is not an excuse for abortion. "Tremendous", "changed my mind", "cried as I listened" were just some of the comments I heard after his presentation. Changed minds, he did, and we were blessed and honored to have him at our banquet."
"Steventhen was the most powerful speaker we have ever had. He was kind, funny and his story was very moving. The crowd was very moved."
"Steven is so personable and relatable. Our event was a little different. Steven provided praise and worship music and tied a small portion of his testimony throughout the program (Walk for Life). He most definitely left us wanting more! He is a class act with the sweetest soul."
"Steventhen blew everyone away. Not only is he a great communicator and an effective speaker who stays on track and is easy to follow, he is also kind and genuine, and that comes through in every interaction. We loved having him! In regards to fundraising, we usually have a second fundraising event and a silent auction. Additionally, we had 100 people less this year than usual. Without those two additional events and with less people, we raised just as much as we usually do!"
"Steventhen Holland is a joy! His story is amazing and will move you beyond words. I had the opportunity to speak with him before he recorded his presentation for our virtual banquet. He wove our theme "But God..." all through his story and it was so beautifully done. Our supporters absolutely loved him and I couldn't be more pleased."
"He (Steventhen) has such a servants heart. He is kind and giving and a wonderful man. We loved him! He brought such a sweet spirit to our banquet. It was unlike any that I have been a part of. I would recommend him to anyone that was interested in having him speak."
"Steventhen is very honest and open with everyone and done excellent sharing his life. I would highly recommend him."
