Bob Kilpatrick
Bob Kilpatrick is a busy man! He continues his national radio program on the K-Love radio network, speaks at national conferences, produces recordings with artists like Phil Keaggy and Randy Stonehill, and has put out his first book, The Art of Being You, through Zondervan Publishers. But just as fulfilling has been the return to his preaching roots. “I’m laying my guitar down and speaking! And I’m loving it,” says Bob. He is, after all, an ordained minister. Still, most people were introduced to the ministry of Bob Kilpatrick through his worship songs.
At least two of Bob Kilpatrick’s songs are consistently listed in the “Classic” worship song category- “Lord Be Glorified” and “Here Am I (Send Me To The Nations)”. Though these songs keep popping up on the “Greatest Hits” lists, there are many other tunes for which Bob is known- “Won By One,” “Sold Out And Radical” and “I Will Not Be Ashamed” among them. His song “Bring Them Home” was sung at Mother Teresa’s funeral service in Calcutta, India (Hillary Clinton mentioned to the singer how touched she was by the song!)
Bob has been in full time ministry since 1970. Over the years he has co-labored with a veritable ministry “Who’s Who”, including Dr. Jack Hayford, Dr. Lloyd John Ogilvie, Corrie ten Boom, Michael W. Smith, dcTalk, Anne Graham Lotz, Keith Green, Phil Keaggy, Randy Stonehill and Andrae Crouch. He produces other artists recordings, working with people like Phil Keaggy, Randy Stonehill, Sara Groves and Noel Paul Stookey (of Peter, Paul & Mary.) He has spoken at many national conferences and Christian music festivals.
The nationwide KLove radio network airs Bob’s “Time Out with Bob Kilpatrick” devotional program three times daily to over 4 million listeners.
Bob writes a column for Christian Musician magazine. His writings also have appeared in worshiptogether.com, Youth Specialties, CCM, Relevant magazine & crosswalk.com.
Bob is an ordained minister, and the third inductee into the Assemblies of God Hall of Honor. He is married to Cindy, his high school sweetheart. They have five children and live in Fair Oaks, California.
“My desire is to serve the Church in any way that God allows. This was not a career choice for me, it was, and is, a calling. I am a servant. With God’s grace, that’s what I’ll always be.”

Hey Bob,
Remember you coming to a church I attended in the 90′s in Woodbridge, Ontario.(Crossroads). Awesome to hear how God is using you and continuing to bless you and your family. It is good to know that you have not only started well but are finishing well for Jesus. God bless and I pray that the Lord would continue to give you more breakthrough opportunities to reach others for Christ.
Blessings!
