You got into ministry to reach lost people.

But there’s way too much about running a church that gets in the way.

Elders. Donors. Ministries. Buildings. That’s just the half of it.

I wanna help you get back to your first love.

And bring your whole church along for the ride.

I’m Tim.

In 2023 I handed the baton off at Parkview Church in the South Suburbs of Chicago after 33 years as the Senior Pastor.

I’ll be honest… the first 10 years were hell.

I got the job by a 51/49 vote (yes that was still a thing), and the 49s didn’t go quietly. They were a “keep off our grass” kind of church. I thought the grass was there for everyone.

You get the picture.

33 years and 10,000 baptisms or so later, all I know is that I’m not done yet. Because the Church isn’t done yet.

I had a great run. I loved it. But what’s coming for the Church is even better, and I’m gonna go out giving the next generation of leaders all the lift that I can.

Because too many real people’s lives depend on it.
