LEADERSHIP

The elders who lead well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor at preaching the word and teaching. - 1 Tim. 5:13

Meet Our Shepherds

Bob Brown

Bill Freemen

Court Gramm

Bob is a graduate of Freed-Hardeman University & has served Christ as a preacher for many decades. Bob & his wife, Kelly, were missionaries in several Latin American countries, planting dozens of churches, & by the grace of God, leading thousands of souls to Christ. All of his children are very active members of the Lord's church & serve God with the same love & enthusiasm. Bob was the preacher for our congregation for 20 years, but has retired from the pulpit. He remains spiritually & physically active shepherding the souls of our members, giving advice & counsel to international churches through the LAMB mission program, & keeping our new preacher & Bob's protegee, Bobby, out of trouble :-)!

Bill moved from Florida to the Denver area in 1993 along with his wife Patricia & their 4 children. They both started new jobs in the Denver area and originally worshiped with the Metro Church. As the Highlands Ranch community began to grow at a very fast pace, Bill & many other members of the Metro Church realized a need to establish the Lord's church in Highlands Ranch. Together with Bob, Kelly, & other members, they put their hands to the plow, & with hard work & prayer, planted the Highlands Ranch Church of Christ, originally meeting in homes until exponential growth no longer left that as a possibility. Bill's children have all left the Denver area, but Bill & Patricia continue to stay in Colorado & serve the Lord faithfully. They are both wonderful servants of the Lord & we are blessed to serve under Bill's leadership & guidance.

Court is the newest addition to our eldership & we are so blessed to have him on board! Court grew up in a Christian household, but did not give his life fully over to Christ until college, when he met his wife, Amanda. Court worshiped faithfully at other local congregations until coming to our congregation in 2015. Court & Amanda have two teenage boys who actively participate in worship, often leading songs, prayers, or reading Scripture, & who love basketball. Court works in technology consulting & loves the outdoors, hiking, coaching basketball, & board games. Court is deeply committed to using his skills & talents to help shepherd our flock so that we will grow spiritually.

Meet Our Preacher

I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living & the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season & out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience & teaching. - 1 Tim. 4:1-2

Robert "Bobby" Eller

Bobby joined our congregation as the preacher & minister in June of 2025. He was born in Bitburg, Germany, in 1992 to an American father & German mother. He often brags about being bilingual & being able to read Martin Luther's German translation of the Bible. He has lived in Florida, Germany, Texas, & now in Colorado. Bobby was a manager for Chick-fil-A until he felt compelled by the love of Christ to use his talents for higher purposes. He moved to Colorado in 2023 to attend the Bear Valley Bible Institute & graduated in 2025. He serves our congregation by teaching three Bible classes a week, preaching God's word, counseling & ministering to our members, engaging in personal evangelism, & teaching recovery classes in the local jail systems. Bobby loves Jesus, the church, the Bible, his dog, good food, long books, & hot tea precisely in that order. If you asked him, he would tell you he is a sinner saved by grace, unworthy of all the many blessings he has received from the Lord, & desires to share those blessings with others. His deepest prayer is that one day he will fully live up to & embody the Scriptures that he preaches every week.
