Guest Pastor James Roberson reminds us that life has a way of mocking our plans and leaving us disappointed. The surprising part is where much of the disappointment actually comes from.
James grew up in Westchester County, outside of New York City. James’s father worked for IBM before becoming a pastor and James’s mother worked as a Social Studies teacher. In college, James played football for James Madison University, while majoring in Speech Communications and minoring in Theatre. James got his start in college ministry over 20 years ago at James Madison University, Howard University, and the University of North Texas. He remains diligently focused on social justice issues and has developed programs on youth empowerment, AIDS, substance abuse, and domestic violence. In 2011, James graduated from Southeastern Seminary while simultaneously pastoring a church in Raleigh, North Carolina. James has since helped to plant churches in Maryland, Georgia, and New York. His family moved to Brooklyn in 2013 to start Bridge Church. James and his wife Natarsha were married in 2003. In his spare time, he loves watching sports and going to the gym. James and Natarsha live in Brooklyn with their three daughters: Faith, Leah, and Sophia.
