Steven K. Thorson

Born Minneapolis. Raised suburban Crystal. Two sisters, one brother. Cooper High grad 1974. Augsburg College 74-77, 80-81. Nursing Assistant (nursing home Mpls., cancer ward UofM, mental health unit Dubuque, IA) 79-82. Wartburg Seminary 81-83. Brazil internship 83-84. Married Toni Dahlin 84, 3 children. Luther Seminary 84-86.

From 1986-2015 I served as a pastor. I am so thankful that I had that experience. See below for more about that.


As of June 2015 I'm serving as a bus operator for Metro Transit. Toni and I are living in Roseville -- she has moved her Wellspring Massage Therapy practice to this area too.

As of October 2016 Toni and I have moved to Millwood Avenue. We'll be renting out the finished portion of our basement here as soon as we get it ready.

Toni and I have gotten involved with Roseville Covenant Church. I heard God calling me to sing with the choir there, which was a big surprise to me.

Until I needed to start working on house projects every day, I had been doing some volunteer work with Bridging.org and had been connected with a young adult Christian community CommunitasMN.net, also here in Roseville. I'm hoping to get back to Bridging once the house projects are taking less time.

For a taste of what's up now
  • look at my blog at equalsharing.blogspot.com
  • check me out on facebook (go ahead and friend me or not, most of what I post there is public)
  • or take a look at my twitter feed (also public)
The "equalsharing" goal is to share ministry and faith in Jesus in an open, honest and respectful way.

For 29 years I was blessed to serve with (and to be supported by) the people of five different local churches. I am grateful to the Lord for the way He blessed me through the people of:
  • Hope Lutheran Church of Ladysmith Wisconsin (June 1986 to November 1992)
  • Glen Flora Lutheran Church of Glen Flora Wisconsin (March 1988 to November 1992)
  • First Evangelical Lutheran Church of Taylors Falls Minnesota (November 1992 to August 2005)
  • Evangelical Lutheran Church of Cokato Minnesota (September 2005 to August 2010)
  • Crossroads Community Church of Cokato Minnesota (February 2011 to June 2015) -- also serving the Dassel-Cokato school district on school bus route 38 from September 2011 until June 2015.
As pastor of Crossroads I maintained a website at crossroadscokato.com and a resource for those seeking practical help in the Dassel-Cokato area at equalsharing.com/dc-help. (I'm hoping to link to archived versions of those webpages later on.)

I am grateful to the Lord for all He has done and continues to do in me during this journey.
