Born in 1947 in Kagawa Prefecture, Paul Fukue studied at Sophia University and later went to Northwest Nazarene University in the U.S.A. There he met the Lord Jesus Christ and became His follower. He began studying the Bible and continued at Nazarene Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri. After finishing his Master of Divinity he returned to Japan and began pioneering a church in his hometown, Kochi City. He and his wife established Kochi Kaganoi Christian Church in 1978, and built the church sanctuary and parsonage at the present location.

Paul then continued his theological studies at Boston University in Massachusetts and completed his doctoral degree. He came back again to his original church in Kochi and pastored it for some more time. He was called to be a pastor of a large church in Tokyo and Chiba from 1994 until 2001, and was then called to teach at Asia-Pacific Nazarene Theological Seminary in Manila, Philippines. He later served there as president of the seminary until 2007. He and his wife, Mitsuko, came back again to Kochi Kaganoi Christian Church and are serving the congregation at the present time.
