About the Author
Robby was radically saved out of a life of drug addiction on November 12, 2002.
Eight months later, a young seminary student named David Platt asked Robby to meet weekly for accountability, prayer, and Bible study.
For the next 2 years, David instilled a passion for missions, expository preaching, and disciple-making in Robby’s life.
After going back to school and earning his Masters of Divinity, Robby launched Replicate Ministries to equip local churches to make disciples who make disciple-makers. The Disciple’s Study Bible is the tool he’s designed to help do that.
