Conversation with Robert Acker
Episode 124
Monday, 1 June, 2026
A lot of leaders talk about “finishing well” like it is a slogan. Rob Acker has lived it, from a youth group of eight kids to decades of pastoral leadership, church planting, and the slow work of staying healthy. JD and I start with a personal story of how our lives crossed, then Rob takes us back to the roots: simple discipleship, opening the Bible as a teenager, and the way the local church quietly forms a leader long before anyone gives you a title. Rob closes with a leadership framework that sticks: character, knowledge, and skills, plus the daily practices that protect the character piece.
