I learned of Bob Lester's passing reading this blog. I joined BMF in 1979 as an adult with a young family. I was baptized in Bob's pool by Dorman.

Bob was one of my favorite people and so was Donna. I know he would be proud of you all...and I'm sure his family is grateful for all your kind words.

Your comments are a great tribute to Bob and how one man can make such a difference in the lives of others.

Happiness to you all...

As a self-proclaimed cheeseburger aficionado, I will be forcing Brad to take me to your recommended spot. And you MUST check out Gordo's (the Jean Robert burger) in Norwood, Mt. Adams Bar and Grill, and Terry's Turf Club (on the East side). They will change your life... the burgers, I mean.

We just had our church's missionary from Burkina Faso speak last Sunday, what a needy country, hasn't changed much since Scott went to Sudan years ago! Now Shae feels the burden and is determined to go to Africa...
and I am so happy she has a tender heart!
Maybe we should all hook up and go together with all our kids! (Our camp is actually for sale right now, Scott wants to move our ministry into a more global path! I will keep you updated and maybe you could get involved with him!!!!

2009-01-21T18:38:00.000-05:00

I've actually eaten at a Waffle House with my Dad upon arriving in Virginia for the first time. Both of us sleep deprived after driving, almost non-stop, I'm sure it was smoke filled and full of truckers, but the food was great. A fond memory I'll cherish. Sounds like you two created a memory also.

2009-01-19T16:09:00.000-05:00

Oh, Scott. You're so naive. You live in Ohio now. Mason, OH at that. Not much in Mason is gritty. They only put up that sign because they had to, Ohio recently banned smoking in restaurants. To get the true Waffle House experience you need to go closer to 2am in the morning in Kentucky when you're greeted at the door, not by a no smoking sign, but by a police officer - just in case things get rough. And the when your waitress Flo FINALLY brings your food, her boobs and cigeratte ashes drag thru your eggs. That, is why I hate eating at Waffle Houses.

I wish more people were educated about what you're saying and wouldn't get bunged out of shape by seeing X-mas. And as you say, there's nothing wrong with it. It's a Greek letter, not a subversive attempt to blot out Jesus.

Hopefully many people will see your blog entry or others like it saying the same thing.

Scott and Will, you both wrote the most beautiful tributes to our beloved youth pastor. I think we all have a bond with each other spiritually because of the great teaching we were lucky enough to be under. Thank you, both, for the eloquent words!

2008-12-01T20:53:00.000-05:00

I had told some outh Group friends of mine about Bob's passing, and one wrote this email to me. I felt like it should reside here, as a tribute to Bob and for others to read:

Well, Scott, I hope you don't mind me writing this to you, but you are the first to tell me of Bob's passing, and I had to express myself. You don't even have to read it.

The ripple that began in the water with you guys that summer in 1980 soon affected me tremendously. You guys started going to BMF and listening to Bob Lester, I was "busy" with a summer project that precluded my attending youth group with you guys. You (Scott and Rob especially) had invited me to attend again and again because of what you had found in Christ, and wanted me, one of your friends, to join you.

I remember when I finally ran out of excuses and came to youth group on a Wednesday night. Bob preached from Ephesians 6 about children and parents and family relationships. I had no idea the Bible was so relevant, and practical to real life. I had thought it was really only a bunch of religous stuff (whatever that was). Well, I went back the following Wednesday hoping for more of the same, but Bob, this time, preached about Jesus' return and the "rapture" and how Christians were going to disappear all over the place. This sounded more like science fiction to me at the time, not the practical stuff I had heard the previous week. So I stayed away for at least a month after that. What was really happening in those next weeks was that I was really under conviction, thinking of how I was not ready for Jesus' return to earth!

About one month later, it was Wednesday, August 23, 1980. I returned and actually brought Dawn Boyer with me that night. When the invitation was given I got up from my seat and walked to the back of the room where I met big ol' Don Kirk. It was Don who walked me through the pamphlet "Steps to Peace ith God" by Billy Graham, and I received Christ as Savior that night. I remember when Bob Lester baptized me in the Stern's backyard pool. He and Donna gave me my first Bible after becoming a Christian; the same one that Pastor Dorman Owens (?) preached from. He also gave me the opportunity to preach on a Wednesday night to the youth group when he felt that I may have a calling on my life.

In time, Bob took me under his wing. I remember afternoon lunches at McDonalds for discipleship, and visiting the other highschoolers who had come to BMF, like I had. Bob was instrumental in getting me to consider going to Bible school, even though I already had a full ride football scholarship to Austin-Peay University. He told me the importance of biblical training, and he thought that since I was showing an interest in ministry, that this is what I should look into. It was a big step, but I did.

I ended up at Liberty University the next fall (1981) and finished four years of a Pastoral Ministry degree, then went on to Seminary for a Masters which I completed in 1992. In 1995 I got a job doing what I am doing to this day; teaching Christian worldview and ethics to new students who come to LU in their first two semesters. Every young person I reach with God's truth, is also fruit that abounds to Bob's account as well. I guess he has realized that now that he is in heaven.

I have to say, then, that Bob Lester had a huge impact in my life. He got me started in my Christian walk, and was there as a gentleman, showing me the way, like a good pastor would; the way to Christ, and the way to Christian ministry, where I still am today. I also work as a Sunday School teacher in my home church in the college-aged class. I am still reaching out to High School and College students with God's truth.

Thanks, Bob, for the leadership, and the lessons taught. Thanks for guiding me into the truth about Jesus and the Bible. Thanks for patiently teaching to a bunch of high school guys going into their senior year at Santana back in the summer of 1980 at a place called Bible Missionary Fellowship. See you later!
Love - Will

What a beautiful post. Your words are obviously driven by missing someone who poured so much into you.

Sometimes I feel like the lucky ones are those left longing for those leaving/crossing over. It's b/c they were and are so great that we miss them so much, ... and so we are blessed to "miss them" I think.

While missing them hurts, the pain just represents how much we love them, and they love us, authentically, ... which is what we are supposed to be all about., right?
