Minister Robert C. Taylor, who
accepted the Lord at an early age, is married to Rev. Pamela Taylor and
is the father of two sons – Christian and Kevin. Minister Taylor has
been a member of Alpha Baptist Church since 1988.
Min. Taylor received his Bachelor of Science in Bible with an emphasis
in Christian Leadership from Philadelphia Biblical University in
December 2008. Initially, he began his college education at Burlington
County Community College with the intent of majoring in computer
science. However, after two years of study at BCC, Min. Taylor, who had
also been ordained as a Deacon in 2006, felt that a career in computers
was not the direction in which God was calling him. He turned his
attention to more intense study of God’s word and soon decided to enroll
in Alpha’s Ministry Training Class, seeking more clarity regarding God’s
plan for his life. After completing the course, Min. Taylor became the
Upper Elementary Sunday School Teacher for children in grades 4th, 5th
and 6th and found ministering to children and youth to be his real
calling. Shortly thereafter, Min. Taylor enrolled in the Advance Program
at Philadelphia Biblical University for a degree in bible studies. While
completing his degree, Min. Taylor began working in Alpha’s Children’s
Church Ministry and soon moved into the leadership role as Children’s
Church Coordinator. While continuing to work on his degree at PBU, Rob
also attended the University’s Institute for Higher Learning from which
he received certification in Children’s Ministry Leadership. After much
prayer and in consultation with Alpha’s Senior Pastor, Min. Taylor
expressed his feeling that God was calling him to serve as a minister of
the gospel. In January 2009, then-Deacon Taylor was licensed to preach
by Alpha Baptist Church.
Min. Taylor’s favorite bible verse is Jeremiah 29:11,
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the
Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope
and a future.” Min. Taylor’s rationale: “It reminds me that God has a
plan for my life.” Minister Taylor continues to provide leadership to
Alpha’s children and youth and is excited to see how God will continue
to use him in His service.
