Rob Ekno is an Award-Winning Author, Screenwriter, Broadcaster, and Speaker. He's also a SAG Actor, Producer, and Alaskan Adventurer. To date, Rob has written and published five faith-based books, three of which have been recognized in writing competitions. Those books are the inspirations for three honored faith-based screenplays. Rob is currently writing his sixth book and fourth screenplay.
During the past 10 years, by simply saying "Hi" to strangers, Rob has experienced a continuous stream of astonishing encounters. These chance meetings (some of which Rob has chronicled in his books) have given Rob the opportunity to meet extremely intriguing people who have shared heart-warming and inspiring stories. They have impacted Rob to a level where he felt that they may do the same for you. Thus, the birth of BLESSED ENCOUNTERS.
No fancy editing or special effects on the videos. Rob merely captures conversations of three to ten minutes on his cellphone and presents the videos on YouTube with the hope shining a light on a person in need or sharing their remarkable wisdom or encouraging story. Here's to each of us enjoying the day by having a BLESSED ENCOUNTER.
