With the growth of our Rocky Mountain School of Ministry and Theology (RMSMT), there has developed a need for more academic oversight of our programs. As such, we are elated to announce the appointment of two new deans to our school.
Dr. Steve Kinnard is now our Dean of the School of Biblical Studies and Ministry.
