Kai Akagi lives in Tokyo, where his ministry focuses on ministry training and Christian education. Seeing the need in Japan for church-centered discipleship and for training men for pastoral ministry and rigorous study of Scripture, he prepared for teaching while earning his MDiv (2011) and ThM (2012) at The Master’s Seminary, and his PhD in New Testament (2017) at the University of St Andrews. During seminary, Kai led the Japanese Outreach ministry of Grace Community Church.
