Bob Jones, Beloved Prophetic Leader, Goes Home to Jesus
 I considered Bob Jones a dear friend, He spoke into my life and into the Life of THE ELIJAH LIST a number of times.
I’ve learned over the years that Bob was probably a spiritual father to more people than anyone I’ve ever known. While I was privileged to have his home number and be able to call him when I needed to, I learned that there were perhaps 10s or even hundreds of others with the same connection. He could have “hid out” and gotten his privacy, but Bob was intent on doing what he was called to do.
Bob truly took seriously his task to “father” the next generation and that he did. Now we pick up where he left off and we must, in turn, be mother and father to those who will be emerging after us.
You will be missed Bob.
