Robert A. Schuller, the son and long-time heir apparent to his father's pulpit at the Crystal Cathedral, officially became the senior pastor of the glass megachurch this month. Robert H. Schuller, 79, announced in a New Year's Day sermon at the Garden Grove, California, church that his 51-year-old son would succeed him January 22 and also take over the widely seen Hour of Power televised services at the Reformed Church in America-affiliated congregation.
His father remains as chairman of the board of Crystal Cathedral Ministries and will be designated as founding pastor of the 50-year-old church. "My father and I will continue as pulpit partners on many Sunday mornings for years to come," predicted the younger Schuller, a graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary.
