Robert's Story
Life
Hey There! I'm in Virginia, wife (almost thirty years) three children. 2girls ready to graduate from college. One from Virginia State University in Petersburg, Va. and the other from Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland and one son 2009-20010 freshman at Bthune-Cookman University, Daytona Beach, Fla.). I've been pastoring 28 years, teach at two seminaries, author of five books including my doctoral thesis. Things are well here. My mom passed in 2003 and dad in 1994. Kinda hard to come home these days. I miss Ravenswood and all I went to school with. Hope you all are doing well. And if anyone knows where or what happen to Mr. Cullen let me know. One more thing my to all my former basesball teamates, my son is a budding baseball player in the state of Virginia. Wish him well in Florida(and maybe beyond). Later!
School
I didn't have a crush on anyone. Mr. Ray Cullen. Yes I would doit over again. The craziest thing occured at graduation. A student shook a can of warm beer and opened the ca. the beer shot up and got all over Cedric Robinso...Expand for more
n sitting next to me. The happiest thing was graduatimg.
College
College was eventful (some of which I regret). Had a great time while at Bishop College in Dallas, Texas. My room was "Grand Central Station." You nae it I had it or could "find it" for you. Mostly good and the latest music. I was preety popular on campus. Was glad to graduate. I majored in Religion and Philosophy and minored in Speech Communication.I didn't like Texas much so I was glad to "get up outta there." I earned both my Master's amd Doctorate degrees from Virginia Union University in Richmond, Virginia.
Workplace
I have primarily been the Pastor of Zion Baptist Church since May of 1981. It has been interesting, but then working with peopl on a daily basis always is. I conduct a lot of workshops around the country on Church Management topics. I also do a lot of revivals and public speaking for local and some national causes. I have written five books and am working on the completion of the sixth and seventh books. I enjoy what I do. I look for many more years to do this work.
