Rev. Dr. Bowman is a graduate of Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi and of the Graduate School of Education at RTS. He has an extensive history as Rector, Associate Rector, and Church Planter for Anglican churches. In addition to his academic studies at RTS, he did summer post-graduate work at The University of Cambridge, England, and the University of St. Andrews, Scotland.The profile strongly implies that Bowman received a "Dr" (either an EdD or PhD) from the Reformed Theological Seminary, although it's weasel-worded if you look carefully. However, when I checked with RTS, I received this reply:
This is to verify that Reformed Theological Seminary has awarded Robert Bowman the following degrees:A responsible reference check by Frederick Rivers or the All Saints Fountain Valley vestry should have revealed this and disqualified Bowman, irrespective of his arrest record. It appears that Bowman's "Dr" is as fraudulent as Anthony Morello's, one more reason to re-open an investigation into how Morello was hired at All Saints.M.A. – Christian Education May 23, 1980
M.Ed – August 3, 1985
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
