Rob Eyman . Learning and Relating Pastor
Our Lord Jesus calls us to fulfill the Great Commission through the two Great Commandments and to do so as a unified community of faith (Mt 28:18-20 Mk 12:28-31 Jn 17:20-23). Rob Eyman has a heart for helping others grow in faith. Believing that the Great Commission will be fulfilled through those who are growing as disciples of Jesus Christ, Rob seeks to nurture a church that is vitally connected to Christ, His community, and His cause. While one’s spiritual growth is an intimately personal thing, living the life for which Christ redeemed us is far more than merely an individual encounter with God. God’s plan is that our spiritual growth be experienced as a community that matures together in the faith as the family of God shares the calling, joys, sorrows, celebrations, and burdens of life along the way.
Rob received a call to ministry while attending Ohio University. Following two years on staff with Campus Crusade for Christ, he entered Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, graduating in 1989. He served twelve years as an Associate Pastor at Covenant Church in West Lafayette, Indiana, and then received a call to become Senior Pastor for Whitworth Presbyterian in 2001. In 2010 he returned to continue his previous ministry emphasis at Covenant. In addition to his undergraduate and seminary training, he has also earned a Doctor of Ministry in Spiritual Formation from Fuller Theological Seminary. Rob and Anne have been married for twenty five years and have four children. In his free time he enjoys solitary hikes and bike rides.
