When grace abounds to the chief of sinners, Christians learn to boast only in the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ. Awed by the grace of God and the majesty of the cross, Timothy Fan serves, pastorally, to remind Christ’s people that they are God’s image bearers, His craftsmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, and are, therefore, very precious to Him.
Raised in a Southern Baptist church in Denver, Colorado, Timothy studied chemistry in college and completed his seminary training in biblical studies. He serves as the pastor of Genesis Family Church in Westminster, CO, and is the author of Divine Heartbeat: Listening to God’s Heartbeat for Preborn Children, The Babes of Christmas, and God’s Ordinary Tinker: The Life and Doctrine of John Bunyan. He and his beloved wife disciple their children through Christian home education in Aurora, CO, where they pray for a “Malachi 4:6 revival” in the waning, contemporary Church.
Timothy’s historic-Christian “mentors” include John Chrysostom, Balthasar Hubmaier, William Tyndale, John Knox, Richard Baxter, John Bunyan, and William Wilberforce. From Tyndale he has learned that “we be called unto a Kingdom that must be won with suffering only, as a sick man winneth health.…Who ought not rather to choose and desire to be blessed with Christ in a little tribulation, than to be cursed perpetually with the world for a little pleasure?”
Soli Deo Gloria. Glory to God alone.
“For of Him, and through Him, and to Him, are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen.” (Romans 11:36)
