Dr. Rob Pocai serves as the sixth president of Kentucky Mountain Bible College. A 2003 graduate of KMBC, he returned to his alma mater with years of experience in pastoral ministry and Christian higher education. Before becoming president, he served in a variety of ministry settings and as Executive Vice President of Wesley Biblical Seminary. He completed graduate studies through Wesley Biblical Seminary and Southeastern University.

Since becoming president, Dr. Pocai has led KMBC through a period of continued growth and development while maintaining the college’s historic commitment to preparing men and women for Christian ministry. During his presidency, KMBC has experienced record enrollment, expanded its academic offerings into graduate education with the launch of the Master of Divinity program, and continued strengthening opportunities for both residential and online students.

His leadership has also helped guide significant campus development, including the successful capital campaign for Mathews-Luce Hall, a new women’s residence hall. Additional investments in campus facilities, student ministry opportunities, and online education continue to support the college’s mission and future.

Central to Dr. Pocai’s leadership is a commitment to academic excellence, practical ministry preparation, discipleship, and the message of scriptural holiness. Through preaching, leadership, and personal interaction with the campus community, he consistently calls students to a life fully yielded to Christ and prepared for faithful Christian service.

Dr. Pocai, his wife, Holly (Bishop ’04), and their children are an active part of the KMBC community. He considers it a privilege to serve the college that helped shape his own calling and preparation for ministry.
