Rob Thomson

Pastor Rob Thomson grew up in New Jersey, Ohio, and Pennsylvania in a Christian family. By God’s grace he became a follower of Christ as a boy in 1974.  He joined the Navy at the age of 17 as a way to pay for college and ended up serving for 24 years all over the world – seeing a vast amount of God’s creation and meeting people from many “nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues” in the process.

He was stationed in Japan for six years, during which time he met his wife, Kinuko. They have been married since 1993 and have one son. The Lord, through the Navy, brought him and his family to Maryland at the end of his military career to serve as a Physics professor at the United States Naval Academy. He retired from the Navy in 2007.

Pastor Rob Thomson has a passion for teaching the Word of God “in season and out of season” in any setting or venue, and for seeing the truth of Scripture applied in the lives of people of all ages and backgrounds “for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,” and to the glory of God.
