Staff & Faculty

M.Div. – Expositional-Western Seminary, B.S. – Engineering Physics-Oregon State University

Mike received his Master of Divinity – Expositional from Western Seminary, and Bachelor of Science – Engineering Physics from Oregon State University.

Mike Robinson first came to the college as a teacher in 2004. By 2009 he accepted the role as president. His passion and heart for the college is embodied in the college’s mission statement: Pacific Bible College is a Christ-centered learning community committed to equipping students to become biblically competent, academically proficient, spiritually cultivated, and culturally engaged servant leaders. One group of individuals that Mike desires to reach is the high school graduate. It is his hope and prayer that they will find PBC as a place to grow in the knowledge of their faith to withstand the trials and temptations that will face them later in life and not become another statistic of one who strays from the church.

Another love Mike has is that of being an engineer. In 1991 Mike and his wife, Cindy, established a local business, Diode Laser Concepts, Inc. They work with large and small customers across a range of industries to produce customized laser modules that meet or exceed customer specifications. Medford is fortunate in many ways to have his business well established here.

Garrett Trott works full-time as University Librarian at Corban University in Salem, Oregon. Garrett has been involved with academic librarianship for over 15 years and is excited to offer his experience and expertise to strengthen and equip students, faculty, and staff in their research and project endeavors.

Garrett has an interest in the integration of faith and learning. In an academic context, this means how one can see all disciplines of study through a biblical-theological lens. As Garrett is a librarian, he has particular interest in exploring what faith and learning looks like in his field. This includes asking questions, such as: what makes a librarian who identifies with their faith in Jesus Christ distinct from one who does not? While there are some obvious answers to this, such as being kind, gentle, and respectful to patrons, many in the profession (and many professions) are taught a level of customer service which can reflect this. Garrett is pursuing this question further of how a believer in Christ can manifest their faith through the profession of librarianship. Part of this exploration can be seen through his blog: The Faithful Librarian (https://www.faithfullibrarian.blog).

Garrett has been happily married to his beautiful wife, Sara for 17 years. He and his wife have three children: David, Robert, and Margaret.  Garrett and his family live in Stayton, Oregon — just east of Salem.

Tony Abbott was born and raised in the Rogue Valley, spending much of his childhood outdoors and cultivating a sense of adventure and curiosity. It didn’t take long to develop a love for science, but he often struggled to reconcile his faith with some of what he learned about the natural world. As a teenager, he became frustrated with what he saw as a false dichotomy of “science versus faith”.  

Tony graduated from North Medford High School in 2005 and enrolled at Southern Oregon University. He found his Christian beliefs more challenged than ever, and wanted to be able to challenge naturalistic worldviews. He declared a physics major, and immediately became enchanted with theoretical physics. He graduated in 2012 with a B.S. in Standard Physics, with a particular love of quantum physics and its mathematical formalism. With the counsel of his wife and much prayer, he decided to pursue a career in education, earning his M.A. in Teaching in 2013.  

Tony has a wife, Becky, and two boys, Desmond and Jude. Along with his teaching math at the Pacific Bible College, he teaches math and science at the Crater Renaissance Academy, and works in the private sector in research and development in optical thin films.
