Welcome to the Rob Bell Author Page
Robert "Rob" Bell is the founding pastor of Mars Hill Bible Church located in Grandville, Michigan. He is a featured speaker in the first series of spiritual short films called NOOMA. Bell and his wife, Kristen, have two boys and live in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Bell, son of Judge Robert Holmes Bell, nominated by Ronald Reagan to the federal judiciary and publicly confirmed by the United States Senate, grew up in a traditional Christian environment. Rob Bell, in his recent book, Velvet Elvis, tells an amazing story of how he envisions the walk a Christian takes in life. The challenge he says, is to live with great passion and conviction, remaining open and flexible, aware that this life is not the last painting. He believes that God led him to teaching at this moment. In preparation for his message, Rob nervously walked through the woods of the camp, he says he felt the presence of God and heard his words saying, teach this book, and I will take care of the rest. Bell was approached by several people each of them telling him that he needed to pursue teaching as a career.
