Welcome!
The Bob Mendelsohn Website
Here it is… the all-in-one place, official website of Bob Mendelsohn. Who is he? American? Aussie? Pickleball or tennis or golf? KC Chiefs or Sydney Swans? And what about Jewish or Christian… which is it? Find all those answers here.
And while you are at it, enjoy his photos from around the globe, his podcasts with interesting guests of all ages and interests, read his blog, and so much more.
And if you miss this, you aren’t really listening. Bob wants to hear from you. About anything. Everyone can have 5 minutes of his day, any day. (Maybe not 6, but you never know)
What I Do
Click the library to begin exploring.
Welcome to the Bible Library This is a growing collection of Bible teaching I've given over the years, much of it recorded live in Sydney. You'll find teaching through individual books of the Bible, along with topical studies and studies of biblical characters. We're only beginning to fill the shelves. Some books already contain multiple audio and video teachings, while others will be added over time. We're also developing more substantial chapter-by-chapter commentary, beginning with the Gospel of Matthew. Come back often. There's much more to come.
I Coach.
I love to help people hear from God. Your personal connection with the Almighty is the most important link I could ever make for anyone. I’d like to help you get in touch with Him, to ask questions, to argue, to learn and to say at the end of the day, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” Just send me an email, ok?
I Speak.
Most weekends, I’m out and about often across the country, sharing what I believe from the Scriptures. I teach in Bible colleges and messianic congregations and churches of all denominations. Through the podcast and here on the website ‘speaking’ happens also!
I Write.
My testimony booklet was printed in 1999, and God has been very active in my life for 70+ years, so there are more books coming.
Current writings include essays and sermons in manuscript, blogs and updates on social media. Pithy is good; any length is ok with me.
My Story
I live half the year in Sydney, Australia. Spring and summer.
I live half the year in Nashville, Tennessee. Spring and summer.
So if it’s warm, that’s where I am. With my wife of 49 years, and nearby are either my son and his family or my two daughters and their families.
I grew up in Kansas City. Academically I attended Washington University in St Louis, then the University of Kansas and Fuller Seminary. I’m still learning, most days.
My folks were born in Kansas City in the 1920s, their parents were all from other places in the 19th Century.
What do you want to know about me? My religious orientation? My love of travel? How I got into pickleball? It’s all on my blog and my podcast. But some I can link here.
Lately I’ve been posting on YouTube using Shorts, little snippets of info to open opportunities for conversation, argument, discussion, ….to hear you!
When you get a chance, send me a note to tell me about yourself and how we can relate. Let’s put ‘social’ back in social media.
