Interview with Robert Pannekoek - 1804

A health and outreach missionary worker, Robert has had much experience as a missionary. His family survived Cyclone Tracey when Robert was just 6 months old.

At 15, Robert’s cousin came to live with the family. He was a lad who had a deep relationship with God. Robert wanted this too and asked him how he could do this. His cousin responded with, “Read your Bible and pray”.

At 19 Robert’s friend asked him, “what are you doing Saturday?” Robert couldn’t respond. As a Seventh Day Adventist, he went to church on a Saturday. Why was he so tongue-tied about this? He took it to God and asked Him to put the words in His mouth. He did and this was the start of an even deeper walk with God.

Robert shares stories of events that took place when he visited other countries to preach. A hair-raising experience in Papua New Guinea helped him realise that no matter where he served God, God was always one step ahead. He shares more stories like this, but you’ll have to listen to this broadcast to hear more.
