Partnership in the Gospel

Theology

“This book is a gem, offering me Bible study unlike any I have read since graduate school, along with warm, human stories told by one who has heard people tell them or seen people live them. Robert Hill is a pastor/scholar writing to a denomination hellbent on tearing itself apart.”

Salt City Prayers

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Though I did not know Robert Hill in the decade when he wrote and delivered these prayers, I have come to value his friendship and borrow (steal) his work ever since. These prayers are honest, warm, connective, and surprisingly timely. More often than not, they give voice to what I am, at that very moment, thinking or seeking. But while speaking for me, Hill is not speaking to me. Clearly, the man knows God.”

Toward a Common Hope

Preaching & Worship

“In his opening Chautauqua sermon, Bob Hill claimed, with no tongue in his cheek, that the church has nothing better to do . . . nothing other to do . . . nothing more important to do . . . and nothing else to do, than preach. Audacious, to be sure. Even gutsy. But then Bob spent five days and multiple pages offering both proof and demonstration. I believe him. I do what he does. And because of Bob, I will do it boldly, proudly, and hopefully more effectively.”
