Tim Smith came to faith while as a sophomore at Lincoln Way East High School in Frankfort, Illinois. He attended Olivet Nazarene University in Bourbonnais, Illinois where he studied Theology and Christian Ministry with a concentration in Youth and Family. While at Olivet, he was mentored by an Ordained Nazarene Pastor from Kenya who pushed him into a deeper passion for Student Ministries.
In July 2019, Tim married his high school sweet heart, Vanessa, who also graduated ONU with a degree in Biology. Vanessa is planning to one day further her education with a masters in Genetics.
Outside of work Tim's favorite hobby is long-distance running. His favorite vacation spot with family is South Lake Tahoe, California; and he and his wife are the owners of three pets: a four-year-old Lionhead mixed California White Rabbit named Izzy, a two-year-old Mini Lop Brown Rabbit named Adi, and a one-year-old Beagle named Scout.
Tim’s favorite book of the Bible is Ephesians for how it retells the Gospel Story and explains to us how it should reshape our lives.
