What others are saying:

“Rob has become the ‘go to’ guy at Brentwood Baptist Church for those who are discussing their faith with unbelieving friends. He not only helps by providing answers to questions; he shares a love for the Scriptures and for people that is contagious. I am confident he will ‘infect’ the searchers you know with the same loves.”

Mike Glenn, senior pastor, Brentwood (Tenn.) Baptist Church

“Rob has the knowledge and communication skills to equip others with answers to the questions seekers of truth are asking. I recommend him highly as a solution for churches desiring to equip their members and Southern Baptist associations desiring to equip their pastors.”

Mike Licona, apologetics coordinator, North American Mission Board, and author of Paul Meets Muhammad and The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus, which received Christianity Today’s 2005  “Award of Merit.”

“Rob led a seminar titled “Earnestly Contenting for the Faith” for our church’s men’s retreat. He was a warm, engaging and very interesting speaker who clearly knows the Bible and how to communicate biblical truth in a straightforward yet gracious way.  Rob also made it a point to get to know a number of the men personally, and he fit in very well with our group.  I heard many positive comments about his presentation from the men who attended and highly recommend Rob for speaking engagements.”

Don Beehler, Christ Fellowship Church, Franklin, Tenn.

“During the last several years, I have been privileged to attend Sunday school classes taught by Rob at Brentwood Baptist Church. I also enjoyed and learned a great deal from a Wednesday evening class he taught on World Religions. Rob’s knowledge of the Bible has been wonderfully displayed and proven, through his class-room teachings and the often comprehensive follow-up questions from the classroom of other mature Christian adults. Even though Rob was able to dissect world religions and make specific comparisons to Christianity, he always emphasized the importance of seeing all people as God’s creation, regardless of any particular belief or following.  No matter how far these other religions drift from Christianity, Rob, consistently reminds us to be ‘Christ-like’ in our interaction and witnessing to all people.”

“Rob connected immediately with our membership and ignited a fury of interest in how to defend the Christian faith. He was a captivating speaker and even stayed after service until every person who had an individual question had the opportunity to ask him directly. I was also impressed that he provided an outline of his material along with a list of books and other resources so that our members could learn more. Rob has obviously devoted much time to studying the subject of apologetics yet was able to speak in such way that everyone – even our children and youth – could understand. As a pastor, I felt he made my job easy. I would recommend that you find time in your church’s calendar to invite him to present to your congregation. Your people will thank you.”
