Robin Farnsworthis an award-winning author and speaker. She and her husband Calvin live on Cape Cod, where they run Higher Ground Outreach, a Christian ministry for incarcerated men and women.
On duty as an ER nurse in 2002, Farnsworth identified her son, Spencer, minutes after he was pronounced dead. He was the unintended target of a murder. So begins her memoir,The Greater Weight of Glory, an extraordinary journey that explores the power of faith and forgiveness with uncommon candor and courage. In 2016, WCVBTV Boston's Chronicle interviewed Robin and one of the men in prison for her son's murder, highlighting their "unlikely friendship." It is a story of hope you won't forget.
Robin is available for speaking engagements and has spoken in a wide variety of settings – from camps to conferences, prisons and retreats. She believes in the power of a testimony and that there is enough in her story to motivate anyone to believe God loves them and wants to redeem and restore their life. "My goal is to encourage others in their hardest circumstances and help them make life-changing decisions that will lead to a victorious and fruitful life in Christ Jesus."
Robin loves serving God in her local church and taking trips to North Carolina and Malaysia to see her two sons, Miles and Jake, their wives, and her six amazing grandchildren.

Robin spoke at our first women’s retreat after COVID. It was important to us have a quality speaker and one that would bring us to the throne room of God. Robin was both of those things and more! She was not only a speaker but an authentic lover of her sisters in Christ. Robin has a delightfully engaging way of sharing many truths about God’s trustworthiness and the joy of walking with Him. Her blogs on her website are a good indication of the warmth with which she shares. Although she shares with humbling vulnerability, the focus is God’s glory. We left that weekend with joy in our hearts.

Robin is a dynamic and engaging speaker. I was recently at a sold out event of over 300 people and you could've heard a pin drop! People were rapt and hanging on every word. Her book is incredible to read but to hear her speak her testimony is even more powerful!

I have heard Robin 4 times. Each time her subject has been different, but no less engaging or passionate. Robin is very down to earth and draws her audiences in by her soft and honest voice. She is God fearing and God loving and I look forward to hearing her again.

We were so blessed and honored to have Robin speak at our Ladies Day on May 6, 2023. This was the fourth time we have Robin as our guest speaker. Our first retreat had 33 ladies. The one on May 6th had 54 ladies. We continue to grow in numbers and spiritually under her teaching. Whether it is the first time you sit under her teaching or the fourth time like I have, you feel the love she shares. Her faith is front and center. She has written a book called the Greater Weight of Glory. That is really a "must read". She carries the same faith in God over to her speaking that she shares in her book.

I was blessed to hear Robin at our annual Ladies Friendship Luncheon. Her story is both heart wrenching and uplifting. Forgiveness has new meaning after listening. My husband was part of the days end clean up crew and he heard Robins message as he stood waiting. He said he was glad he was there to witness her powerful message!

If you are looking for a speaker who can touch the hearts of the entire gathering, then I strongly recommend Robin. She has been our guest speaker two years in a row and everyone is already looking forward to her next appearance. Robin has so much to share and does it in a loving, kind way. You go away from her presentation wanting to be a better person.

Robin is the real deal ! For week’s after her talk, ladies were continuing to share the “take-aways” from her time with us. Her love for Jesus and others is so evident.

Robin was the speaker for our annual Ladies Retreat this year and we couldn't have been more blessed! She has a powerful story and was able to bring a sense of peace and calm in the midst of the storms in this life. She was genuine, relatable and a true woman of God. The redemption that Christ can provide was undeniable and shone through her.

I highly recommend that if you have the chance to meet Robin and hear her share her story and her heart that you don't pass it up! We we're blessed by her openness to share the hard parts of her story. Her vulnerability and love of her Savior Jesus Christ set her apart from the rest. We left with renewed hope and encouragement to forgive. To forgive those that have wounded us deeply, those that are hard to forgive. Her message brought hope to those who have been bound by hurt and unforgiveness. She truly is a gem of our generation.

For 2 years I worked at trying to find a speaker for a small retreat in my area. No one responded my search. I was discouraged... I thought I would look one more time... Robin's name came up at the top of the list. God said.... ask her. My faith was not exactly strong thinking she would respond to my request. But she responded the same day! We were honored to have Robin speak to our group of 33 women. Robin is amazing. Her life story is touching. Her ability to "move on" after a life of trials that a non Christian would not be able to face is compelling to listen to. Her faith shines through in her words... and her smile is contagious and genuine. She was a blessing to every lady in the room. Forgiveness to Robin is not just a word. She lives it every minute of every day. I was honored to be able to sit and listen to her testimony.
