General blurb: Bob is a mixture of fun-loving and intensity. He is real and raw, honest-to-a-fault, and loves Jesus and people. He takes God seriously, but not himself. He’s comfortable being the life of the party, or dialing down alone. He wishes he could surf (because it’s very cool), but he can’t. He loves God, His Word, teaching and preaching, and mentoring young leaders. He also loves to worship God and is a fan of expensive guitars.
