Robert and Jan
TaylorNASHVILLE, Tennessee--In 1999 Bob Taylor began the assignment of district superintendent for the Bowling Green, Kentucky, district. He and his wife, Jan, now serve the renamed Nashville, Tennessee, district, which encompasses parts of eight states. He also serves as senior pastor for the Nashville and Clarksville, Tennessee, and Bowling Green churches.
The Taylors have lived in and around the Nashville area for more than 30 years. Mr. Taylor was ordained an elder in 1978 and served for 17 years in the Nashville and Murfreesboro, Tennessee, churches before entering full-time pastoral ministry as the Nashville congregation's pastor in 1995.
Before 1995, Bob spent 36 years in the computer industry as a field engineer and had his own business designing custom turn-key computer systems.
Bob and Jan met in 1970 when they both began attending the WCG in Nashville. Little did they know that eight years later they would be married and eventually have three married children and five grandchildren all of whom live in the Nashville area.
Jan works as office manager for a civil engineering firm in Franklin, a suburb of Nashville, where they reside. She especially enjoys traveling with her husband and directing the Nashville women's ministry. Her passion in ministry is promoting prayer and an exciting, personal, intimate relationship with our Savior.
