Tim, his wife Nicole, and their three kids call the Atlanta area "home." Originally from Chicago, Tim has been in full-time ministry work for almost 15 years now. Two years ago God began to mess with his world by calling he and his family to start a new church in the Atlanta area. The assumption early on was that Tim's mega-church background would lead him to start a church just like the ones he had been in for years. Slowly but surely though, God began to quietly call Tim's heart back to a simpler call...the mission of Jesus.
