Mark Robinson was born and raised in Vancouver. He came to the Lord in 1972 as a first year university student (UBC), studying plant science in the faculty of agriculture. After graduation he worked in the agriculture sector, as a greenhouse supervisor and later with Agriculture Canada. During this time he took a year’s leave of absence to spend time in South Korea, studying the Korean language and culture at Yonsei University, and helping out in several local churches. After 12 years with Agriculture Canada he went back to university (SFU), secured his teaching certificate and entered the field of education. His teaching experience has specialized in Bible and science, with a keen interest in Creation Science, and attempting to integrate a Biblical world-view into all aspects of education.
Lately, Mark and his wife, Vivian, have been involved with Ratanak – a wonderful Christian organization that rescues and rehabilitates young girls who have been sold into the child brothels of Cambodia. Mark and Vivian have two grown sons, Jordan and Shane.
