Ryan and Kristen Robinson graduated from UNC Chapel Hill, Ryan with a degree in Middle Grades Education and Kristen with a degree in Communication Studies and Sociology. They were trained for campus ministry and began serving as missionaries at their alma mater shortly thereafter. For over a decade, Ryan and Kristen served at UNC and saw hundreds of students make a commitment to follow Jesus, a dozen campus missionaries trained and sent out and hundreds of student leaders launched into vocational and marketplace ministry. The Robinsons are passionate about reaching the next generation with the message of Jesus (Psalm 71:18) and equipping and empowering people to live a life of faith and fruitfulness (2 Timothy 1:6-7, 1 Timothy 4:12, Ephesians 6:1-4).
Currently, Ryan and Kristen work with the local church as the Next Gen Director and Kids Director respectively. In addition to these roles, the Robinsons will continue in missions and outreach to young people. While serving at King’s Park, they will have many and varied opportunities to:
- Serve alongside the local church to reach the next generation.
- Partner with local schools and businesses to minister in the community.
- Lead mission trips and training for area students to become effective ministers.
By God’s grace, the Robinsons have been privileged to serve in the gospel mission with others and are believing God for more—more salvations, more individuals equipped to minister, and more lives transformed by the gospel!
Ryan and Kristen live in Durham, North Carolina with their five kids—Joel, Gideon, Bailey, Abigail and Ethan. In their free time they enjoy books, coffee shops, board games, family movie nights and time outdoors.
