"Down through the pages of history it is evidentthat whenever Christ followers have expressed their faith in unity theyhave powerfully impacted their world. Count to One reminds us that weare able to release the power of God as we live, work and pray inunity. Living in a world that is plagued with conflict, fear anddisharmony we have a unique opportunity to start a 'unity' revolutionwith our brothers and sisters in Christ from every racial, cultural,economic, political and denominational background. As we stand together we can practically live out the gospel of Jesus displaying His love to a lost and hurting world. Now is a time to use our diversity as aplatform for unity and to show the world that we are His disciples as we truly love one another. (John 13:35)." -- Graham Power, Founder ofGlobal Day of Prayer & Unashamedly Ethical
"'Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity.' Thiswell preached and often sung verse holds the key to a release of thepower of God's Spirit that few have experienced because it is so seldompracticed! In this, his first published work, Bishop Robert re-examinesthe critical events and times that separated believers, and robbed theChurch of her intended authority and power. This message taps into thetruth of the Gospel and holds the key to worldwide revival when millions will be swept into the Kingdom of God in a great last daysdemonstration of the power of the one true Living God; "for there theLord commands His blessing, even life forevermore." -- Paul Wilbur,Integrity Music Artist, Pastor of Jewish Ministries - Celebration Church
"Bishop Robert has a deep love for God and for the people of God, and anunwavering faith in the purposes to which the Church has been called.In Count to One, Bishop Robert challenges us as brothers and sisters - a family in faith - to examine our common and collective identity inChrist. Our society - both nationally and globally - is tremendouslyfragmented and fractured. He reminds us (in a fashion that iscompelling, scripturally-grounded, and well-reasoned) of the directivewe have received from our Father God to stand on the common ground thatis the gospel, and to function together in a way that is cohesive,complementary, and mutually edifying. Only when we live out the unitywe were created for, can we powerfully fulfill God's calling on each ofus, and the mission He has for the Church. Bishop Robert's is a timelyand powerful exhortation for the Church in our time." -- The ReverendLuis Cortés, Jr., President/CEO of Esperanza
"Count to One is apassionate and majestic call to contend for Christian unity. As one who has prayed and dreamed and hoped for a miraculous and tangiblebreakthrough in unity across the historic streams of our faith, Iconfess this book is unlike any I have read. If your heart cries andyour eyes weep for the coming together of the Body of Christ, you mustjoin Bishop Robert on his amazing journey of revelation. 'Together.Unstoppable. One Body.'" - Jeff Farmer, President -Pentecostal/Charismatic Churches of North America

About the author

Bishop Robert is a voice for unity in the Body of Christ. His heart’s cry is the prayer of Jesus in John 17, that followers of Jesus may be one, and so proclaim the message of the Gospel in the power of His glory.
God gave Bishop Robert an interesting task one day in prayer, telling him “I am teaching you to count to one!” The lesson was to be found in a simple truth revealed in the pages of the scriptures. The Lord’s determination to see the unity of His Body restored and His desire to see the power of His glory displayed to a lost and dying world will strike you with deliberate force as you take in the message of Count To One.
Bishop Robert serves as the President & Chief Executive Officer of Count to One, a ministry which exists to promote greater unity in the Body of Christ worldwide. Christ said that our love for one another would be the way the world would know that we are His disciples. As followers of Christ forgive one another and love one another - we will be in a better position to serve Jesus and fulfill the Great Commission.
Ordained to the ministry in 1999 in the Assemblies of God, Bishop Robert was consecrated a bishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches (the CEEC) on June 10, 2012 at the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem. The CEEC is a conservative communion of evangelical Christians who embrace all three historic streams of worship expression in the Church – the sacramental, the evangelical and the Pentecostal.
For four years since being consecrated a bishop, he served as the assistant to the CEEC’s Presiding Bishop of the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches, assisting in the global mission of the Communion. Because of his personal experience helping South Sudan as it became an independent nation in 2011, Bishop Robert was appointed as Bishop of South Sudan in January of 2013. Bishop Robert was also concurrently appointed as Bishop of the Mediterranean and Middle East and tasked with looking for evangelism and church planting opportunities in that region.

I advise all Christians to put aside denominational preferences and read “Count to One: God’s Plan for Christian Unity” with an open heart and a mind for doing whatever it takes to bring unity to God’s people.
Pick up the book! Read it and meditate on what Bishop Robert is saying about unity and the message of John 17. But don't only read it and then put it on the shelf. Act on what Bishop Robert has said in his book. Set aside all your pre-conceived notions about other believers (denominations) and listen to God's heart. Be a catalyst for unity in your community, city, state, and nation. God is on the move in this world and he needs all who believe that Jesus is the Christ and that you are saved by grace alone unto good works to come together to advance His Kingdom. This is a book that will change your life. Your friend. Bill Pezzutti
Passion for God - Compassion for people
The Apostle Paul said it in his letter to the church in Corinth, “We are one body. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it. In Ephesians Paul writes, “There is one body and one spirit” . . . and yet we live in a world where there are more than 43,000 different and often quite exclusive Christian denominations.
Christian persecution is at unprecedented levels and in the United States, powerful, organized and well financed groups, last year alone, sent out over a billion messages, using social media, the press, movies and television to discredit the Bible and its teachings, attack religion and condemn Christians.
We need unity in the Body of Christ now, more than ever.
Bishop Robert, has provided us fertile soil in which to grow our own understanding of God’s plan for Christian unity and how we should deal with existing divisive differences and then he outlines, on a deeply personal level, a path forward, through the cross, to relational forgiveness, redemptive love and the unity that only Christ offers.
If you care about Christ’s words, “that we all may be one,” I wholeheartedly recommend Bishop Robert’s COUNT TO ONE, without reservation.
