Full Bio
Dr. Robert Bess is a near-death survivor, technologist, and Kingdom-minded entrepreneur with over four decades in the tech and building industries. His debut book, Preserved, is a brutally honest memoir that chronicles thirteen near-death experiences, generational trauma, addiction, and the relentless grace of God that kept him alive when he should have died many times over.
Raised in a home marked by abuse, rejection, and destructive words spoken over his life, Robert grew up believing he was worthless—even as he excelled academically and professionally. Over the years, he survived everything from drowning and violent assaults to car accidents and self-destructive choices. Each time, God intervened.
Today, Robert leads multiple companies, mentors Christian entrepreneurs in Las Vegas, and shares his story to help people break cycles of trauma, reclaim their God-given identity, and understand that if they’re still breathing, their story is not over. His life message is simple and sobering: you’re not alive by accident—you’re preserved on purpose.
Robert speaks at churches, conferences, radio and podcast platforms, and business events on themes of trauma healing, faith in real life, leadership under pressure, and living on assignment in the Kingdom of God.
