About

The author

はじめまして! my name is Kermit Bayless. I became a Christian while in college and after graduating I interned in Tokyo Japan for two years as a missionary to college students. During my time there God gave me a deep love for Japanese people and their culture. Returning to the States and seeking the Lord’s will for my life, He led me to go back to Japan long-term and continue sharing the gospel that continues to transform my life. I love Jesus with all my heart, and it is my desire for Japan to know the love Christ.

I invite you to visit the following to learn more about me and my ministry.

The website

Japan has a Christian population of less than 1% and this website is dedicated to reaching Japan with the gospel of Jesus Christ. I continue to study Japanese culture and enjoy making what I learn available to those interested. Through growing in understanding of Japanese culture I hope to better be able to articulate the eternal truth of the gospel and see it received in the hearts of Japanese people. This website is a small reflection of my desire to see that happen in Japan.

I also provide updates here about my ministry and include information for those who desire to support me in prayer and or financially.
