Daniel Costales was born
in Lihue,
Hawaii,
to Alice and "Pastor Timmy" Costales. His early years were spent at
Anahola Baptist Church and Kauai Christian Academy on the island of Kauai
and Koolau Baptist Church and Academy on the island of Oahu. In 1994
Daniel received a B.A. in the Humanities from Bob Jones University, and in
1999 he earned his Master of Divinity degree from the Master's Seminary in
Sun Valley, California. Months after graduating, he was called to be the
Kahu, that is the Pastor or Shepherd, of Berean Bible
Church in Hilo, Hawaii.
Kahu
Daniel is passionate
about theology and teaching God's truth to God's people. It is his
privilege to lift up the name of Jesus through the careful exposition of
the Scripture at every church worship service. Kahu's hobbies
include playing soccer, hanging out with his family, reading Christian
biographies and listening to Bible expositors on his iPod.
Kahu's wife
Karen is an important part of the ministry. Born in Mexico and reared in
a missionary home, she discovered her need for salvation at an early age.
Her desire to serve the Lord in a ministry home has been fulfilled at her
husband's side here at Berean Bible Church. After college Karen worked as
a school teacher but currently she is a "keeper at home" homeschooling
their two oldest children. Kahu and Karen have been married since
1995 and have four children-Hoku, Timmy, Liana and Kekoa. |
