Robert and his wife Sharon live in Auckland, New Zealand. They have four children: one in Japan, two married in New Zealand and the youngest still at home. Robert really shouldn't be here, but thanks to God's grace and modern medicine, he is able to appreciate the blessing of life that God has given him (all his days have been extra days). With that in mind, Robert's passion is to help people live productive and God filled lives, growing strong marriages and families. He is an engineer by trade, and the author of several books including Thinky Things, Resisting the Devil and That We May Be One.
