Big Bob I went to the WILDS Of New Englands and let me say you changed my life and helped me realize more about God and how I want to help serve him. Thank you for your message. All I can think now is “If you are his living statue they should see God when they see you.” And that’s how I want people to see me. Thank you and thank the LORD for all his wonders.
I have been impacted by Bob Robert’s ( Big Bob) from the Wilds. My boys have been to this wonderful place for better part of their teen life. This is how I have became to know the greatest story and how a man so larger than life could convict you just by a 5 min conversation. As I have listened to all the episodes I have to keep asking myself why isn’t his family with him?

God used you to lead me to Christ and our church has just been so inspired and blessed by you. Thank you for your service for God.
Never have I so deeply wept and mourned and seconds later laughed out loud. Thank you all for taking the time to minister to one another and invite us to glimpse the beauty and joy of heaven through your friendship. God is being magnified and it is ministering to my soul.
