Dr. Robert Griffith serves full time as the Lead Pastor of Christ Chapel in Woodbridge VA. Robert has degrees in business, leadership, and a doctorate in ministry. His dissertation was on the theology and practice of foster care ministry. His study showed that the support of foster parents by church volunteers raises their satisfaction levels and lowers the dropout rates. This accomplishes the biblical mandate to help vulnerable children and is a help to social services. Additionally, he is the founder of a Non-Profit called 1Hope Together that recruits and supports foster parents.
