Betty RobisonBetty Robison is the co-host of the television program LIFE Today with her husband, James Robison. The comment most often heard from viewers of the program is, "Betty seems so real!" Betty is real in her personal relationship with the Lord, in her ministry calling, in her deep compassion for hurting people, for people in desperate physical need, for people who, above all, need a soul-saving touch from God. And she is real in the zeal he shows for seeking God's guidance and provision in reaching them for Christ. Betty is also real in her personal life. She is real in her relationship with James. She supports him with the strength and love that only a wife can give. Married to and in ministry with him for over 40 years, she has stood by him through many trials. She has been his friend and encourager in the myriad adversities related to their place in the limelight of a large public ministry. Betty is real as a mother and grandmother. Ask any of her children or grandchildren. On the television program, Betty brings a quiet spirit and deep insights that surprise some people. Those qualities are not easily counterfeited. In her, they are real. They are the effortless overflow from a diligently sought and jealously guarded intimacy with her heavenly Father. James and Betty do not pursue a flamboyant lifestyle. They know how to be fulfilled through the little things of life. To them, Christianity is not about religion but relationships -- loving God first, and then loving others as yourself. This has set them free to enjoy life with each other and their many friends outside the family circle. They believe Christians should enjoy their life in Christ -- and they do!
