Dr. Robert Schuller

Dr. Robert Schuller, Conversations On Faith

Robert Harold Schuller was born in Alton, Iowa. He was raised on his parent’s farm nearby, in a small, close-knit community of Dutch Americans. Robert knew from the early age of four that he wanted to be a minister of the church. After graduating from a tiny high school of nearby Newkirk, Iowa, he entered Hope College, in Holland, Michigan, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree. Robert was ready to return to Michigan to pursue his religious studies at Western Theological Seminary. In 1950, he received his Masters of Divinity. The young Reverend Schuller married Arvella DeHann of Newkirk, and the newlyweds moved to Chicago, where the newly ordained minister took up his first assignment as pastor of the Ivanhoe Reformed Church. During his ministry, the congregation grew from 38 to over 400. In 1955, Schuller’s denomination, the Reformed Church of America, called on him to build a new congregation in Garden Grove, California. With only $500 in assets, he decided to rent a drive-in movie theater, the Orange Drive-in. On the first Sunday, 100 persons attended services seated in their cars, while Reverend Schuller preached from the tarpaper roof of the snack bar. The Garden Grove congregation continued to grow; when a larger building was needed, Rev. Schuller commissioned the renowned architect Phillip Johnson to build a new building, all of glass: the Crystal Cathedral. After almost insurmountable difficulties, this 2, 736-seat architectural marvel was dedicated in 1980, “To the Glory of Man for the Greater Glory of God.” Today, one million people visit the Cathedral annually. Dr. Schuller is the author of over 30 books, six of which have found a place on the New York Times and Publisher’s Weekly best-seller lists.
