Leading a life based on hope and faith can be complicated for some people, who limit themselves to believing only what they can see. However, daring to go further and trust, from within, can bring surprisingly favorable results to our lives.
In large part, this is the message that the pastor and motivational speaker Tim Timberlake, who has dedicated more than 16 years of his life to guiding people toward a process of building hope for their lives, based on faith and the opportunities God has placed in their path, wish to convey from his knowledge and experience.
Tim had a direct encounter with hopelessness when his father died when he was still a child. This plunged him into a deep sadness that he thought he would never get out of until God worked in his life. He claims that basing his faith and his journey on God's designated plan was what allowed him to see more clearly the path he needed to take. And it was there that another story began.
A short time after starting college at Hampton University, he decided to attend the Pistis Bible Institute. Once he finished his studies, he began as a co-pastor alongside his mother Brenda Timberlake, who was, and is a well-known pastor.
He and his wife Jen remain leading the Church in North Carolina, and last year (2019), he transitioned to become the lead pastor of a very prominent church in Jacksonville, Florida.
Having the opportunity to lead thousands of people towards building a life based on hope and faith has become a mission for Tim. He has conveyed his message differently from the conventional. Free of suits, white shirts, and ties, reflecting a passion for sports, with comfortable clothes and making use of social networks, has led to a greater connection with people.
Tim also invests time in helping people build hope through ministry and leadership principles. To that end, he has also written a book whose message focuses on living a life beyond wild dreams.
Personal Growth
Tim maintains his conviction that it is vital and important to help people connect to God. He sees his mission as one that must transcend barriers and boundaries. That's why he has made social networking a key element in his daily work.
Through Instagram alone, he has more than 100,000 followers, he shares messages of faith, hope, motivation, and inspires those who wish to advance on God's path for their life. Using his innate talents to achieve his life's purposes.
This way of thinking and living has allowed him to obtain high recognition. He is taking his message to churches, conferences, and unconventional places to advance the gospel. He has even participated as a motivator for artists, athletes, influential people, and many others who have needed a word of guidance. As a result, he has become one of the most sought after pastors and leaders in America.
Success for Timberlake
Despite his great journey so far and the recognition, Tim retains his humility and the true meaning of life. Serving others first.
He emphasizes that nothing he has is defined as success. For him, this is "not defined by how much he accumulates or gathers, but defined by how many people he helps and serves".
His highest conviction is to have the opportunity to serve as a connector so people can discover their true potential, the one God has arranged for each of them, and use it appropriately.
He assures us that God has been a constant in his life. And that is why he has dedicated himself to share his transformation as a way to motivate and guide others in the same process. All this, in the company of his most cherished gifts, his wife Jennifer and their son Maxwell.
Today, Tim continues to pioneer moving forward with his message of hope and faith. He continues to grow on social media platforms and hopes to have the opportunity to point thousands of people to follow God's path and his purposes for living.
