PROFESSOR OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
ABOUT
​
Mr. Kevin G. Smith is from the Pacific Northwest, having lived in numerous states within the region both in childhood and now married with his growing family. He came to faith in high school in a non-Reformed community. After further training in that tradition and several years of pastoral ministry, he spent the next ten years discerning and learning about Reformed theology, seeing it as the faithful expression of biblical truths. Since then, he has primarily worked in classical Christian education, serving as an Upper School teacher and administrator in both traditional and online settings.
Accompanying his journey into Reformed theology, Mr. Smith pursued more opportunities to both learn from and contribute to Christian higher education. His research goals pertain to educational practices and methods in Europe and her colonies from the 14th – 18th centuries, with special attention given to Scotland and England of the 16th and 17th centuries. He also has further training in Library Sciences, serving as a Library Director and consultant for Christian academic institutions.
He married his beautiful bride, Ashley, in 2016 and God has blessed them with three children, a daughter, a son, and one who is with the Lord. When not working with books or teaching a class, he spends time outside with his kids, goes on walks with his whole crew, or enjoys a free moment to read on his own.
