7 Tom and Kim Keinath, both graduates of University of Valley Forge, have served together in full time ministry for over thirty-five years. Twenty-one of those years have been at Calvary Temple, including the last fifteen years as lead pastor. They have also pastored for eight years in Lancaster and Hazleton, Pennsylvania. Both Tom and Kim also ministered at the Teen Challenge Training Center, dedicated to seeing lives transformed out of substance abuse and crime. Additionally, Tom served on the teaching faculty at Central Bible College in Springfield, Missouri. Prior to this he received his Masters degree in Biblical Literature from the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary and his Doctor of Ministry degree from Regent University in Virginia. Tom, a gifted preacher and teacher, is passionate about evangelism and missions. From living under a bridge with the homeless to traveling to the ends of the earth, he has a heart to reach those who are hurting. Equally important to Tom is discipleship. He has written several spiritual growth courses which include Equipped for Life, The Barnabas Discipleship Method, and WordQuest. Additionally, he serves The New Jersey District of the Assemblies of God as a Presbyter and as a teacher with the District School of Ministry. In his spare time he enjoys writing and hiking, collecting stamps and baseball cards, and playing the violin and guitar. Kim is passionate about seeing women grow in their relationship with the Lord, giving support to homeschooling families, and encouraging pastor s wives. She currently leads a weekly Bible study for women and serves as the Advisor for Calvary Homeschooling Association, which she established as a result of her own experience with homeschooling her own children. Additionally, she loves to play the piano, and she served for four years as the Music & Creative Arts Director here at CTI. In her spare time she enjoys making pottery and scrapbooking. A special delight to Tom and Kim are their three daughters, their sons-in-law, and their two grandchildren.
