SUMMARY:Rob Rienow - Week Five
DESCRIPTION:Rob married Amy in 1994 and they have been blessed with 7 children\, and two grandchildren. His most important ministry is loving his wife and leading his children to know God and love Him. He attended Wheaton College\, then completed an MA in theology at Wheaton College Graduate School\, an MDiv from Trinity International Divinity School\, and a Doctor of Ministry in Christian Leadership from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. Rob’s life dramatically changed in 2004. God brought him to a place of deep repentance over the fact that he was discipling other people’s children\, but not his own. He was a spiritual leader at church\, but passive with his family. Through that time of repentance\, God turned his heart to the ministry of his children and his wife. God then led he and Amy to launch Visionary Family Ministries\, a ministry designed to inspire parents and grandparents to disciple their children\, to help couples create mission driven-marriages\, and equip churches to build Bible-driven ministries. He partners and consults with numerous churches\, encouraging them to accelerate evangelism and discipleship through families. Rob has served as a pastor and church planter and is the author of numerous books including Visionary Parenting\, Visionary Church\, and Healing Family Relationships. Connect with Dr. Rienow through the weekly podcast\, Family Vision\, or through his website at www.VisionaryFam.com. When Rob is not fishing for men\, he enjoys fishing for fish. \n  \nMission of the week:\n\nSlavic Gospel Association\nSlavic Gospel Association\, sharing the Gospel\, Equipping the Church\, and Helping the Forgotten in.
