ABOUT CYNTHIA

Cynthia Gandhi Dobbs was born in Tamil Nadu, India. After finishing high-school in New Delhi, Cynthia attended college in New York City where she accompanied her father, an Indian Diplomat, on a four-year assignment to the United Nations.  As an undergrad Cynthia helped pioneer Chi Alpha college ministry chapters on multiple NYC campuses.  Later, in graduate school, the Lord began to open opportunities to write and speak, and to resource small group leaders.  Cynthia was ABD (all-but dissertation) in a PhD program in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology when she answered the call to full-time ministry with Chi Alpha. 

 

Cynthia serves on staff alongside her husband Directing Tulsa Chi Alpha, and on the National Chi Alpha Ministry Team as the Cross Cultural Missions Resource Specialist. Cynthia is an award winning author, a writer for Guideposts magazine, having penned numerous devotional and ministry resources. 

She trains, inspires and equips this generation to reach the Nations through her writing and speaking at various conferences. She has a special burden for women, and their irreplaceable position in the Kingdom of God as leaders and laborers. She often speaks at churches, and conferences with messages that are engaging, informed, and inspirational.

Cynthia’s exegetical approach to sermon-craft challenges congregations to dive deeper into God’s word for themselves.  She brings the same thorough study in exploration of scripture that she drew on as a researcher and graduate student of  Biochemistry at O-State.
