Robert Oglesby
Youth ministry is a passion of Robert's life. He devoted over 20 years of his life to full-time youth ministry. He found incredible joy in building two youth ministry programs at the Western Hills Church in Temple, Texas and the Southern Hills Church of Christ in Abilene, Texas. He spent the last 16 years with the Southern Hills church before he moved into his role of teaching at ACU. The last five years have been a tremendous time of growth in the numbers of youth ministry majors at ACU. Robert has built a nationally recognized program.
Robert has actually been teaching at ACU as an adjunct professor in the Bible department 11 years before he came on full-time with the school. Across those years, he was able to teach over 400 full-time youth ministers and he was able to train many interns through his work at Southern Hills. Robert still remains active in church work at Southern Hills as a Family minister. He teaches both adult and youth classes. He is a Wilderness Trek Coordinator, Middle School Church Camp Co-Director, and family pastoral counselor.
Robert speaks across the country at youth rallies, retreats, and seminars. He is frequently used as a church consultant. He specializes in the hiring process, church crisis situations, and evaluating a youth ministry.
Robert is married to Jenny (Linn). His wife teaches junior and A.P. freshman English at Abilene High School. They have three children. Lauren (20), Greg (17), and Leslie (15).
