Fr Rob is an internationally acclaimed author, singer, and songwriter with one book (Breakthrough), a reflective journal, and eight album releases. After being selected to sing and write the English and International versions of the official 2008, 2016, and 2019 World Youth Day songs, Fr Rob entered the realm of the cast of musicians, having performed in some key events before an estimated single live audience of over 600,000 people.

In all this, whilst greatly appreciating his gifts, he recognises that before everything he is a follower of Christ, a priest and only then, a speaker, musician and artist.

Testimonials

  • Fr Rob brought our students right into the present moment as they prayed, sang and listened attentively. He pointed the students towards God in skilful and inclusive ways. Fr. Rob was genuine, humble and looked us in the eye with acceptance and patience. The looks on the students’ faces will remain with me.

  • How grateful I am that Fr. Rob continues to respond to God’s love with such authenticity and enthusiasm. The students heard the message and were quickened to the core. I have never seen them so attentive and genuinely interested. One student told me this was the best talk he had ever been to.

  • I have been a teacher in the Catholic School system for 20 years. This is the most engaged and convicted I have ever been at a staff formation day. I have received so much from his visit and am more convinced and comfortable about my Catholic identity. Thank you!

  • As a teacher (and a parent of a child) thank you! You and your team made religion accessible today. I had the "cool kids" singing your songs all afternoon in class and my own kids wanting to watch your YouTube clips on the home lounge room tv tonight. My heart is singing! This is what it's about. What a day! Thank you all!
