Our Family Our Journey

Bob Massey was born during the depression in Wichita, KS. The only job available to his father was as bouncer in a nightclub and his mother was fry cook. They lived in a small apartment in the back of the nightclub until Bob was 2 years old when they moved to a farm near Udall, KS. Two brothers were born during the years on the farm. In 1943, his parents divorced and his father was immediately drafted. Bob lived with grandparents in western KS during the war and because his father suffered shell-shock upon his return, the boys were sent to live with their mom and a very harsh stepfather who expected them to work many hours a day on their farm. Bob survived a near fatal accident at age twelve and upon recovery developed a devil-may-care attitude to cover his anger and hurt. Bob married his high school sweetheart and they had five children. His title shows where he lives, how he came to know the Lord, and how the death of his oldest son led the family to the cross and tells of ministry developed from that experience.
