Through adversity, Rob discovered a calling to share Jesus’ message of hope with authenticity and compassion. As a speaker, podcast host, author, and Chairman of the Christian Festival Association, he encourages audiences nationwide. His book Broken Still Chosen and events like “RISE with Rob and Friends” continue to inspire thousands with real stories of faith and resilience.
