Richard Lee Roberts (born November 12, 1948) is chairman and chief executive officer of the Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association and previously served as president of Oral Roberts University (ORU) for 15 years. After Roberts stepped down, the outgoing ORU board of regents elected him president emeritus.

Early life and education

Richard Lee Roberts was born on November 12, 1948, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the son of evangelist Granville Oral Roberts (died 2009) and school teacher Evelyn Lutman Roberts (died 2005). The third born of four Roberts children, he had an older sister, Rebecca Ann, who along with her husband, Marshall Nash, was killed in a plane crash in 1977, and an older brother, Ronald David, who died in 1982 in what was determined to be suicide. Robert's younger sister, Roberta Jean Potts, is a practicing attorney in Tulsa, Oklahoma.[2]

As a young boy, Roberts watched his father travel the United States and the world conducting healing meetings where he would preach and pray for the sick. At times, his father and mother were gone for periods as long as six weeks. When school permitted, Roberts accompanied his father on trips and dreamed of having a healing ministry of his own; many times walking by his side as his father prayed for people in the "invalid tent".[3] During the portions of the services where people were getting prayed for,[4] Roberts was often standing on his chair clapping when people were healed.[2]

At a young age, Roberts’s music talent was evident to those around him.

Richard singing at his father's crusades

At the age of 5 he had his first public performance at an Oral Roberts crusade in Baltimore, Maryland, standing on a chair in front of several thousand people singing "I Believe."[5] Also at an early age, his father began to teach him the game of golf. With his first swing of the club, while in their front yard, he sent a ball right through the living room window of their home. In his book, Expect A Miracle My Life and Ministry by Oral Roberts, Oral talks about the bond they gained through the game of golf. Roberts eventually became an excellent golfer and played with notable celebrities.[2]

Though drawn to ministry, Roberts was made uncomfortable by all the attention his father received. He was often teased by classmates and even teachers, and even got into fights about his father. "I came home from school many a day with my shirt torn and my nose bloodied from being in fights with the other kids who made fun of me, my dad and the healing ministry of Jesus Christ." [5] As a teenager, with the negative press his father was receiving and pressure from his father to sing at crusades, he began to pull away from involvement with his father’s ministry and began pursuing other talents and interests, such as singing.[6]

As a teenager he learned to play the guitar and began singing in pizza parlors and eventually nightclubs around the state of Oklahoma. There was a new dream in his heart, to become a nightclub singer in Las Vegas.[5] In 1966, during Roberts’ senior year in high school he played the lead in his high school play The Sound of Music. He then was offered a music scholarship for the summer to the Interlochen Center for the Arts in Traverse City, Michigan, by the founder Joseph Maddy, when Maddy brought a performing group to the Oral Roberts University campus. According Roberts’ autobiography, he landed the male lead in the camps production of "Annie Get Your Gun.[7]

Graduating from Memorial High School in May of 1966[8] Roberts was accepted to three different universities and chose the University of Kansas to attend college due to its well known music program and it being the farthest distance from Tulsa.[9]

Richard Roberts and Shirley Jones

During the summer of his freshman year he worked at the famous 8,000 seat, outdoor Starlight Theater in Kansas City,[10] with a number of performers including Shirley Jones.[5] He also had been working in a number of night clubs and had been offered a contract to sing in Las Vegas.[2][11]

While at the University of Kansas, Roberts gets sick and had to go to the hospital, possibly needing surgery. The surgery was avoided but soon after returning from the hospital, while alone in his room, he heard a voice, coming out of nowhere, telling him he is in the wrong place. "Where am I supposed to be?, he asks. The voice says, Oral Roberts University.[5] In the Fall 1967, Roberts dropped out of the University of Kansas and enrolled in Oral Roberts University.[12] In 1968 at the age of 19, two weeks before his birthday, Roberts dedicates his life to Jesus Christ[5] and he joined his father’s ministry as a singer on television and in crusades.[13]

Roberts received his bachelor’s degree in communication arts from Oral Roberts University in 1985. He received his master’s degree from the Oral Roberts University School of Theology and Missions in 1992[14] as well as his Doctor of Ministry degree in 2002 from Oral Roberts University.[15]

Family

Against the wishes of his family and friends, Roberts married Patricia "Patti" Holcombe on November 27, 1968. In his book, He’s The God of a Second Chance, Roberts’ states, "I was young and thought that I had all the answers to life. Of course, I didn't. I soon discovered that I had made a terrible mistake that I didn't know how to get out of. I did not believe in divorce. So I decided to make my marriage work."[16] Together they have two children, Christi born in 1971 and Juli born in 1972. In 1978 Patti filed for divorce.[17][18]

With his divorce hitting 300 newspapers nationwide and his position in the ministry, Roberts believed it was important to go before the executive staff of the ministry and the university to discuss his desire to remarry and seek their approval. They approved his request.[19] Several weeks later, on January 11, 1980, Roberts married Linda Ann Salem at the campus chapel of Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida.[20]

Together Richard and Lindsay had four children. After several miscarriages, their first child, Richard Oral, was born on January 17, 1984. Within hours, complications developed and he died 36 hours after birth. Jordan was born in 1985. Olivia was born in 1987. Chloe was born in 1989.[21] Roberts has 3 grandchildren.

Career

Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association

At 19, Roberts joined his father’s ministry and becomes immediately involved in several areas of the ministry including radio, television and traveling with his father on domestic and international crusades. His first trip was in December of the same year to Haiti singing with the music team, Oral Roberts Collegians. His first area of responsibility was reorganizing and developing the Collegians music group into the World Action Singers. Roberts and this group would be featured in the new Sunday morning television program, taped in Los Angeles and prime-time television specials that were taped in different locations around the world.[5]

Over the next decade Roberts sings on the television programs and produces more than 15 record albums.

When not involved in television production Roberts travels the US and around the world performing in concerts and speaking at ministry sponsored events, as the ministry continues to raise funds to complete the building of the University.[22] In addition, Roberts travels and sings in numerous healing meetings with Kathryn Kuhlman from 1973-1975.[5][23][24]Kathryn Kuhlman from 1973-1975.

Roberts’ world falls apart after his wife (Patti) files for divorce.[18] In the book Expect a Miracle, Oral Roberts remembers his son coming to his office devastated, explaining what had just happened, asking what was to become of him and his work in the ministry. Oral notes that numerous individuals, including close friends and ministers, advised Oral to remove Richard from the Ministry, send him overseas for a number of years and even disown him. After prayer, Oral believed that God was not through with Richard and he was still to be involved in the ministry.[2]

Roberts remarries and continues traveling doing concerts and singing on television. The concerts transform into a combination of music, preaching and ministry events where Roberts is praying for people and people are testifying they have been healed.[2][5] In 1982, Roberts holds the first of many international crusades starting with South Africa. According to the ministry website, oralroberts.com, Roberts has ministered in over 40 countries on six different continents including: Russia, India, Brazil, Australia, Niger, and Indonesia.[25]

Roberts continues holding domestic meetings and ministering on television programs.[26] In 1984, Roberts begins a live daily one-hour program called Richard Roberts Live that combines ministry, music and special guests such as Richard Kiel, known for his role as Jaws in the James Bond movies and Donna Douglas, best known as Elly May Clampett in the television show The Beverly Hillbillies.[27][28]

In 1985, Oral Roberts steps down and Richard Roberts is elected president of Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association (OREA) by its Board of Directors.[29] In 1986, Roberts works with his father and helps found the International Charismatic Bible Ministries to support independent churches and ministries and to help expand opportunities for student recruitment for ORU.[30]

In 1987, Roberts is elected as the executive vice president of Oral Roberts University and is involved in all areas of administration and presides over the ORU chapel services. During the same time period, Roberts continues daily television, domestic crusades with his father, his own international crusades and speaking at churches and conferences across the country.[31] In 1992, Oral Roberts announces to the Board that he will be stepping down as President of ORU.[2]

Oral Roberts University

Serving dual roles

On January 27, 1993, the Board of Regents elected Roberts as the second president of the university.

Commencement 2002

For Roberts, the excitement is short lived. Reports show the University is in debt as much as $52 million.[32] Roberts stated: "The University’s debt to asset ratio is not bad but it is operating at a deficit and spending $9 million a year in debt service."[33] Tuition and fees were not enough to keep up with expenses. For years, the Ministry had been able to fund the short fall but it too was running tight budgets and not able to help as much as in the past.[2] In his The Joy of the Lord book, Roberts talks about the daily pressure and concerns about cash flow. "I spent most of my time putting out fires with bankers and creditors …and awoke many nights with nightmares of the University shutting down." [34]

Roberts assembled a team from his executive staff to work with him on resolving the financial problems. They meet each morning to review the bank balances and discuss the accounts payable that were due that day. Jeanne Alcott, Vice President of Partner Communications – "Shortly after becoming President, Richard formed a special committee, a management team, to meet with him every morning concerning these seemingly impossible situations. Budgets had been cut and employees had been laid off." [35] George Fisher – Vice President for University Development stated, "I often wondered what people would have thought if they had known how little cash we had. Here we were, operating a $50 million enterprise with less cash in our bank accounts than many individuals have. Usually, after we conducted as much business as possible, the meetings turned into prayer meetings because we were so overwhelmed by the problems." [36]

Marketing the university for growth

Roberts pushes his team to increase enrollment, tighten budgets and find additional revenue streams. At the same time, Roberts uses his ministry television program to promote the University, increase enrollment and raise funds for student scholarships. He starts the Adopt A Student scholarship campaign as one of these efforts.[37][38] In addition, he promotes special projects on the ministry's television program to help pay for needed university renovations. Over the next four years, enrollment increases by 1,200 students and the debt is reduced by 50 percent [39] Roberts used his Ministry connections to help with recruitment, specifically in the African American community. Through his speaking at churches and conferences, he was mainly responsible for the 20% African American student body.[2] ORU receives the Racial Harmony Award from the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities in 2002.[40]

Roberts recognizes the importance of the Athletic Program for national prominence and student recruitment. In 1993, Roberts makes a number of changes in the athletic program hiring Bill Self as head basketball coach. Roberts changes the school mascot from the Titans to The Golden Eagles and [41] hires Mike Carter as the new Director of Athletics.[42]

As president of the university, Roberts began incorporating the university and students as part of the crusade/healing rally team.

Students and staff from the School of Nursing and staff from the School of Business join doctors as a part of the crusade team. Roberts has outreaches in Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Ghana and Niger that include seminars and surgeries.[43][44] Tulsa City Council presents ORU president Richard Roberts with a Key to the City of Tulsa to reflect their "eternal gratitude for your efforts on our behalf." A proclamation was read regarding ORU’s contribution to the Tulsa community. In one semester, ORU students gave a total of 2,500 hours of their time in service to organizations in Tulsa.[45]

Roberts pushes to increase participation in the Oral Roberts University Educational Fellowship organization to expand the base of Christian elementary and secondary schools involvement to help bolster enrollment.[46] He also focuses on international affiliation agreements. Students could attend classes as at various locations, acquire credit hours and potentially receive an accredited degree from ORU.[47] During his tenure, agreements were signed with schools in Sweden, England, Korea, Singapore, Rhema Bible Training Center in Broken Arrow, OK, and Christ for the Nations in Dallas, Texas.[48]

Controversy

In October 2007, three former professors filed a lawsuit against Oral Roberts University[49] and named the entire ORU Board of Regents, Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association, Roberts, his wife and several university administrators as co-defendants. As a part of the suit, additional allegations were made including: university resources were illegally used by Roberts to help a Mayoral candidate’s election campaign, Roberts misappropriated university funds for a daughter’s trip to the Bahamas, was maintaining a stable of horses at university expense for the exclusive use of his children, used university staff to do his daughters homework, remodel the university owned residence, that Roberts lived in, 11 times in 14 years, allowed the university to be billed for damage to a university owned golf cart damaged by his children and personally acquired two vehicles, a Mercedes and a Lexus, through ministry donors.[50][51][52][53] Roberts responded by saying, "This lawsuit ...is about intimidation, blackmail and extortion."[52]

A few days later, the suit was amended alleging the university’s financial comptroller had been fired; additionally amended stating "Witnesses have reported voluminous materials and documents were shredded and destroyed, constituting spoliation of evidence." [54][55] One month later another wrongful termination lawsuit is filed against the university by a former ORU accountant, Trent Huddleston, that was employed for less than one year, claiming he had been ordered to help Roberts and his wife "cook the books" by misclassifying over $120,000 in funds, allegedly spent by the university on remoldeling the university home that Roberts lived in.[56]

Resignation

Wikinews has related news: Richard Roberts takes leave of absence from Oral Roberts University

On October 17, 2007 Roberts asked for and was granted an indefinite leave of absence from the school by the university's board of regents, citing the "toll" the lawsuit and attendant allegations have taken on him and his family.[57] In a statement Roberts said, "I don't know how long this leave of absence will last... I pray and believe that in God's timing, and when the Board feels that it is appropriate, I will be back at my post as President."[57] Billy Joe Daugherty of Victory Christian Center was named executive regent of the board of regents and interim president.[58] Chairman of the board of regents George Pearsons noted the temporary resignation was not an admission of guilt.[58]

On November 13, the tenured faculty of Oral Roberts University approved a nonbinding vote of no confidence in Roberts.[59] The vote was nearly unanimous according to a professor in attendance.[60]

Roberts tendered his resignation to the university's board of regents on November 23, 2007, effective immediately. In an emailed statement he said, "I love ORU with all my heart. I love the students, faculty, staff and administration and I want to see God's best for all of them."[61]

On January 14, 2008, the ORU Board of Regents voted unanimously to name Richard Roberts president emeritus in honor of his work during 15 years as president.[62]

Resolution

The Huddleston lawsuit was dismissed. ORU claimed he was nothing more than a disgruntled employee. Huddleston’s attorney stated there would be an appeal. There was no appeal.[56]

In a written statement, the university denied "purposely or improperly" destroying documents. Upon review, it was discovered that the shredded documents had nothing to do with any allegations and were a part of normal policy, required by law for the privacy and protection of students and ministry donors.[54][55]

By October 2008, the original three cases for wrongful discharge had been dismissed or settled.[49]

No evidence regarding the additional allegations made against Roberts or the university was produced. No charges were filed and all other lawsuits were dismissed.[49]
