This is a collection of Bob Dye's timeless messages recorded between 1987 and 2004.
Bob Dye was an active member and Deacon/Elder of Noelridge Park Church since he and his wife Coral moved to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, in 1970. Bob L. Dye was born on March 15, 1937 in Gowanda, a small town in rural western New York State. He was the third child of Ralph and Marian Scott Dye. Bob grew up on a dairy farm on Dye Road in South Dayton, NY.
A devoted Christian, Bob graduated from Roberts Wesleyan College in North Chili, NY with a degree in Religion & Philosophy. Later he became an ordained minister.
Bob met his future wife Coral Small at his brother Nelson’s wedding. Bob and Coral married in Silver Creek, NY on June 14, 1958 (Flag Day). Bob’s first job out of college was for Youth for Christ (YFC) in Fort Wayne, Indiana, an organization whose first employee was Billy Graham. His true lifelong mission was helping teenagers come to know Jesus Christ. He would go on to serve the Lord through his work with YFC for the next 48 years, until his retirement from YFC in 2007.
In 1961, Coral and Bob moved to Port Huron, Michigan to head up the local YFC chapter. He led a “Teen Team” of college students on a YFC mission trip to Peru, the first of many trips overseas. He and Coral moved to Cedar Rapids in 1970 to be Executive Director of Eastern Iowa Youth for Christ. In 1972, Bob started the annual Campus Life Caravan, a 10-day Colorado camping trip for about 100 teenagers. He created and built the renowned “Chuck Wagon”, a pull-behind kitchen designed to serve Caravan meals and community pancake breakfasts.
In 1987, he was promoted to YFC’s Northern States Regional Field Director and served a five-state region for 15 years, traveling thousands of miles. He looked forward to collaborating with YFC Directors and was a mentor to many young YFC staff in their shared passion for reaching kids for Christ.
Bob & Coral have four daughters, Lori, Robin, Michelle, and Becky and also welcomed 22 foreign-exchange students from Central America, the Caribbean, Europe and Asia and enjoyed the sharing of cultures.
In 2004, Bob and Coral started “Breakfast Club” at Kennedy High School to provide thought-provoking discussion over breakfast. On Thursday afternoons Bob visited during all four lunch periods at the Kennedy cafeteria and made it a point to sit next to someone new every week. He loved connecting with everyone he met and would ask, “How are you doing today?” or “Where are you from?” and was genuinely interested in listening and learning their story.
Coral published a book on Bob's biography entitled "Count it all joy..." that is available for sale at this site: https://www.blurb.com/b/10634351-count-it-all-joy. The subtitle is: "The life, ministry, & family of Bob Dye as shared by Coral Dye." The foreward is by Ken Davis.

Seed & Soil - The Kingdom Life
25 AUG 2020 · Recorded May 2, 2004 Bob recalls his early days growing up on a 300 acre dairy farm in W. NY state, where he learned about the soil, gardening, and farming. It was a transition time for farmers -from horses to tractors. Many changes from a corn planter they had that was 8’ wide to ones now that are 35’ wide and plant 25 acres an hour. Jesus used many parables, and one was about the seed where the soil determines the crop. One insight Bob had was “Can the farmer or the kingdom member do anything about the soil?” He had yet to hear a message on it! Bob feels it is possible for the kingdom member to prepare the soil with loving relationships. It would help the one who receives the word to accept it and grow. Then he asks “What can I do to make those who receive the Word to accept it and grow?”34m 20s -
Message on John 15 / Guess what?
25 AUG 2020 · Recorded April 13, 2003 Our grandson, Henry, 5 at the time, often would say “Guess what, Grandpa!”, then answer his own question. Bob uses that phrase often in this message on John 15. We had gone to an Alison Krauss concert with backstage passes Lori had given us, and Bob enjoyed talking with her band member, Ron Block, who wrote songs that we really appreciated about his spiritual journey with God. Also, one phrase that Bob appreciated from Dallas Willard was: “We are all unceasing spiritual beings with an eternal destiny, and we never stop existing…” and Guess what? “You can do nothing about it.” Only thing is to choose your destination. He also shares about the vine and branches Jesus talked about in John 15 by using an illustration from the Grape Belt where we were from in W. NY state.28m 42s -
A heartburn we all need
25 AUG 2020 · Recorded May 6, 2001 Bob starts by asking how to spell relief from heartburn or pain. Many people are stressed out by their jobs, but as he said, “I’ve been in ministry for 41 years and never have thought about taking a sabbatical.” He gives steps to go from a beating heart to a burning heart, and he lists three places where we can get enlightenment today. A heart that is concerned about the spiritual need of those around us is essential to reaching out to them. “You can’t keep something inside if it’s burning.”23m 16s -
Love - It's the Greatest
25 AUG 2020 · Recorded February 14, 1993 I Corinthians 13. Why is love the greatest? It moved God to do the unthinkable, it challenges us to do the impossible, it enables us to face the unknowns and fears of life, and motivates us to take positive action. Bob shares about our love and commitment to each other in our marriage.37m 9s -
Keys to happiness
25 AUG 2020 · Recorded March 13, 1988 Pascal said “All men seek happiness.” It is found only in God Himself. As C. S. Lewis said, “God finds great pleasure in seeing us happy.” Our delight in the Lord will increase as we are fed by God’s Word, follow the leading of His Spirit, and spread God’s Good News. Ends with a thought provoking poem by Tim Hansel: “Pedal.”35m 7s -
When Fantasies Meet Reality
11 NOV 2017 · Date: 8/22/04 A humorous start as Bob shares how he grew up with the Lone Ranger and how he rode his horse on his farm trying to bring that character into his life. Today we live in a world of fantasy--unrestrained imagination. We forget reality and the laws of nature. When Jesus walked on water to where the disciples were struggling in a storm, we don't know if He meant to join them or to walk on by. When Jesus passes by, what is our cry for help? He doesn't need our help to get from point A to point B. But we need His help to get from point B (birth) to D (death) to E (eternity).34m 47s -
Father's Day
11 NOV 2017 · Date: 6/15/03 What do fathers think about on Father's Day? A lot about memories, and he asked several men to share (they were not on the microphone so difficult to hear). Bob gives advice beginning with being as positive as you can be to anticipate your children's next stage of life. Fathers should demonstrate a strong relational quality to give courage, hope, and confidence to their children. Much of a child's sense of spirituality comes from the father.29m 43s -
Kingdom Living in a Secular Culture
11 NOV 2017 · Date: 7/13/03 Matthew 5: "You are the light of the world--let your light shine so they will praise your Father in heaven." Jesus left a powerful impact on His culture. He addressed the total needs of people: mental, social, spiritual, and physical. People should be able to see kingdom living in our life. Bob's life verse was Colossians 3:17. It guided him throughout his life. Illustration of the difference between the Teton mountains and the Alps.33m 18s
