Elder Robert J. Tillman is a native of Thomasville, NC. Called out and set aside from his mother's womb, it is evident through his ability of delivering God's word that the hand of the Lord is upon his life. In January 1997, he answered the call of God to preach the gospel at the Friendship Baptist Church and God super-naturally demonstrated through him the proof of His delivering power by the preached word.
This Godly ambassador is not your ordinary preacher. He is a man of great faith and remarkable integrity. It is apparent that God has anointed him to preach the gospel to the poor, heal the brokenhearted, and preach deliverance to the captives. As a result of his gifts and callings, he has been favored in many avenues of ministry. He exemplifies the true meaning of God's servant. Humbly, he served as interim-pastor of Oak Grove Baptist Church of High Point, NC from 2002 - 2003. Divinely focused on the plan of God, he re-established the ministry and led God's people to new levels of spiritual freedom. God super-naturally added to the church in members and in spiritual growth. In his most recent venue of ministry, he served as pastor of the Living Water Baptist Church in the city of High Point, NC. In September 2004, he accepted an assignment of spiritual urgency to rebuild the ministry. What was considered to be a temporary mission unfolded to be a call for pastoral-ship from the members of the Living Water Baptist Church. In June 2005, he was installed as the 3rd pastor and served faithfully until February 2007. Pastor Tillman's focus and mission was to help God's people understand their God-given purpose, empower, equip, motivate, and push them to their ultimate destiny. Simultaneously, the church became a more unified, family-oriented body of believers, experienced phenomenal increase in membership, the birthing of new ministries within the church, an exciting-thriving atmosphere for worship, and a renewed mind-set for ministry. |
