ROBERT J CHARLES

Tell your readers a little about yourself, where you grew up, where you live now, where you went to school etc. Let them get to know the personal you.

 

I am the Ethnic Coordinator at the Greater New York Conference. I grew up in Haiti. Now I live in New York. I oversee 22 churches and groups in New York. I use to preach the Gospel in the US and in Canada. I studied at Andrews University, Michigan and at Montemorelos University at Mexico. I hold a PhD and also Doctorate degree in Ministry, DMin. I am an Advisor at Andrews University for the DMin program.

 

What inspired you to author your book?

 

I had a burden. So many people are leaving the churches. I think that one of the main reasons is because we did not follow the word of Jesus regarding Discipleship.




 

Where did you get the inspiration for your book’s cover?


I was thinking about someone, alone, far for the noisy world, ready to listen to God’s voice.

 

 

Who has been the most significant influence on you personally and as a writer?
