David Robbins Named as Next President of Cru
On June 5, NRB member Campus Crusade for Christ International (Cru), named David Robbins as their fourth president, beginning July 2024.
Prior to this role, Robbins served since 2017 as CEO of FamilyLife, also an NRB member organization and ministry of Cru which provides a plethora of resources for families in all areas—marriage, parenting, faith, blended and stepfamilies, and more.
As president, Robbins will help further Cru’s purpose of “helping to fulfill the Great Commission in the power of the Holy Spirit by winning people to faith in Jesus Christ, building them in their faith and sending them to win and build others.”
Robbins has more than two decades of experience working with Cru, serving in various leadership roles and capacities over the years, including leading many student ministries across the nation and overseas.
“Robbins has consistently demonstrated a passion for evangelism and discipleship, and a heart to reach the world,” the news release from Cru said.
Catch up on highlights from recent NRB media coverage, including NRB President & CEO Troy A. Miller's latest opinion piece for Newsmax on the critical role of AM radio, a faith reflection for Fox News Digital, and a discussion on the Israel-Hamas war following Miller’s recent solidarity mission to Israel.
