Leadership and Staff
Dr. Bob Broadbooks, Director
Robert Broadbooks serves as the Regional Director for the USA/Canada Region of the Church of the Nazarene, a position he has held since 2008.
Bob was born into the Church of the Nazarene in Nebraska and is an ordained elder. Prior to his work for the International Church of the Nazarene, he served as district superintendent of the Tennessee district for 6 years and the Alabama North district for 6 years. Each district moved forward under his leadership. Of particular satisfaction for him has been his involvement in the planting of 24 churches while serving as superintendent (8 Latino, 9 Anglo, 6 Black, 1 Korean).
For 20 years, Dr. Broadbooks served as pastor in four growing churches-Montrose First, Colorado; Denver Lakewood, Colorado; Hutchinson First, Kansas; and Tampa First, Florida.
He has a B.A. from MidAmerica Nazarene University, 1973; a M.Div. from Nazarene Theological Seminary, 1976; and a D.D. from MidAmerica Nazarene University, 2000. He has been a delegate to five General Assemblies. He has also served on numerous other local, district, and general church committees and boards.
He enjoys both preaching and writing and has contributed to several periodicals. His book, From Pastor to Pastor: Letters of Encouragement and Wisdom, was released by Nazarene Publishing House in 2003. His second book, How to Bless Your Pastor was released in 2009, and his most recent book, Created For Mission: Effective Models for Districts and Leaders, released in 2011, was co-written with Gustavo Crocker.
Throughout all of these ministry experiences, his wife, the former Carol Renee Powers, has been actively involved. She graduated from MidAmerica Nazarene University with a degree in elementary education. For many years, she has been faithful to scripture memorization and intercessory prayer. Carol is often invited to speak at ladies' functions.
Bob and Carol have two grown children, Keely and Lincoln, and they reside in Olathe, Kansas.
