Bob Gillespie began his journey in apologetics through 24 years of teaching Bible, History, and Science in Christian schools across the United States and on the mission field in West Africa. During that time, his passion was simple but powerful: to help students see that they can trust the entire Bible and confidently answer the skeptical questions that cause so many to doubt.

After returning from Africa, Bob and his wife Lois sensed God’s call to step into full-time apologetics ministry. The Lord opened the door for Bob to serve as an associate speaker with Answers in Genesis for eight years, where he spoke at camps, schools, and conferences in more than 500 locations across the U.S. and internationally.

Today, Bob and Lois continue to travel together, presenting apologetics conferences that equip believers of all ages. Bob’s greatest joy is watching audiences come alive as they realize they don’t have to be intimidated by secular teachings or scientific claims that seem to undermine Scripture. His passion is to help people confidently stand on the Word of God as an absolute, unshakable authority.

Signature Talks

Eyewitness History:
Those who disbelieve the Bible have devised another explanation of how we got here without God, and they have been successful in convincing generations that their belief is scientific fact. However, we have an Eyewitness to all of history from the beginning to the end. God told us how He created a perfect earth; but because Adam sinned, we now live in a broken world where all of us need a Savior. God told us how He judged the earth in a global flood, and then changed the languages of all people, thus scattering them across the earth. Since these are all literal historical events given to us by Someone who was there, we would expect observations in the present to confirm these events. And they do! This talk will conclude with the gospel message and show how this history, starting in Genesis, shows Jesus is the only way.

The Real Adam Makes Jesus the Only Way:
There is a concerted effort today in the Christian world to minimize the importance of a literal Adam and Eve. It is said, “After all, the science is clear, Adam is just a myth”. Is a real Adam important? Does one have to believe in a literal Adam to be saved? Can’t we just get along and focus on Jesus? This talk will deal with these types of important questions.

How the Bible Changed the World:
Have you ever wondered why Europe and North America have so much freedom and prosperity while so many other areas of the world have struggled for centuries? Some are saying that the West (based on a Judeo-Christian worldview) is rich and powerful because it is so evil and racist. The truth is that the Bible has changed the world. We begin by contrasting the true perspective of reality given to us in the Bible with other worldviews around the world that have kept people in bondage and poverty. We conclude with the worldview clash in America between the Bible and Secular Humanism, and how humanists have been successful in teaching their lies to the younger generations. This false worldview will lead to devastating consequences right here in America. This talk is designed to give a greater appreciation of the importance of the Bible and explain why America is so divided today.
