More from Pastor Rob:

It is a joy and honor to be serving as senior minister of Broadway Church. I arrived in May 2013 from Colorado; after nine years of ministry in the Denver area (and 16 years living there), my family and I were ready to explore what God had next for us – and God does not disappoint!

My undergraduate studies were in film and communications at the University of California at Santa Barbara. Following graduation, I spent 15 years working on a variety of projects as a producer, editor, and director for National Geographic, Disney, Rocky Mountain PBS, and others in fiction and non-fiction programming
(IMDB.com). Following a lifetime in the church, and a challenging period of spiritual discernment, I then followed a call to ministry and earned a Master of Divinity from Denver Seminary. Ministry is certainly a calling, and it is especially wonderful to be exploring this journey with my wife Chris, our daughter Sarah, and our son Aaron.

In addition to church ministry, I also serve as a
chaplain for the Sedalia Police Department, a Commissioner for the Synod of Mid-Missouri, and am a member of the Pettis County Ministerial Association.

I also enjoy playing various musical instruments (especially with our Broadway-born roots band, One Track Train - Facebook and YouTube Channel), hiking, reading, golfing, fishing, and other sports. I especially love baseball and have so far visited 14 MLB ballparks.

"Getting down on one knee is a great way to field a sharp ground ball, and the best way to pray to
God Almighty." -- 
Jackie Robinson, baseball legend


"I had a stick of CareFree gum, but it didn't work. I felt pretty good at first, but when the gum lost its flavor I was back to pondering my mortality." -- Mitch Hedberg, comedian

"The Master of Life's been good to me. He has given me strength to face past illnesses and victory in the face of defeat. He has given me life and joy where others saw oblivion. Life and love go on; let the music play.”  -- Johnny Cash, musician
