| After
graduating from Baylor University, Robin Bolden worked as a deputy
sheriff in the South Central area of Los Angeles for several years
before beginning to pursue his lifelong aspiration of playing music
professionally.
As a musician and
performer, Robin played the California bar scene for four years
and decided in 2002 to make the move to Nashville. However, before
making the move, he enrolled in school for 6 months at the Horizon
School of Evangelism in San Diego. This was in response to a calling
that the Lord had placed on his life at age 13.
While attending school,
Robin soon discovered his gift for leading worship. God began to
use these gifts to serve the body of Christ in a powerful and unique
way. Upon finishing the school in July 2002, Robin decided to forego
his Nashville aspirations and began working as an intern pastor
at Horizon Park Chapel in downtown San Diego. During this time Robin
grew to a deeper understanding of his calling and experienced the
joys and trials of being a minister.
At the end of two
years, Robin, through God’s providential hand, received a
phone call from Dr. Frank Robinson at Magnolia Wesleyan Church in
Santee. They were in need of a worship leader and made the offer
for him to come on board. Robin accepted the job as director of
worship and currently continues in this position.
In the summer of
2004, Robin’s first worship CD, “In the Twinkling of
an Eye,” was completed. On Saturday, March 5, he will present
a CD release and worship concert at Live at Ground Zero, 2930 Jamacha
Road, El Cajon. Doors open to the free event at 6 p.m. and the concert
at 7.
He describes “In
the Twinkling of an Eye” as “a worship offering that
combines pop, soul, rock, country, and gospel all into one-12 song
package. From the first song to the very last, it will have you
clapping, dancing, and shouting the name of Jesus!”
Robin has studied
piano, guitar, and voice extensively. He has completed numerous
songwriting courses and continues to teach song writing workshops
on a selective basis.
He has opened for
Trisha Yearwood, Mark Wills, and Leanne Rimes. He has also headlined
several large regional venues.
“Our ambition
is to boldly proclaim Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world through
worship evangelism,” he says. “We believe in proclaiming
the uncompromised gospel in a passionate and enthusiastic manner.
We believe that the Gospel is exciting and should be delivered in
such a way.”
