Robert S. Kinney ROBERT S. KINNEY

Robert is presently a law student at Northern Illinois University College of Law. Before that, he spent nearly 20 years at a non-profit organization that specialized in training teachers and preachers how to be astute readers and effective orators. This work included extensive international travel (about 20 countries per year) and the ability to foster a wide network of colleagues across the globe. While directing this organization, he also served in a few churches. Now he is in the next phase of life, studying law and exploring how he can be of service to his community as a lawyer as well as churchman.
