Meet Your Teacher
Now, I serve as professor of leadership and church ministry at one of the largest seminaries in the world, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (http://www.sbts.edu) in Louisville, Kentucky. Here, I invest my time in mentoring a rising generation of God-called ministers of the Gospel. I also edit The Journal of Family Ministry (http://www.familyministrytoday.com) and write books in the fields of history, apologetics, and family ministry. I enjoy spending time with my family, reading forgotten books, drinking French-pressed coffee, and cooking for my students. Our family is involved in ministry at Sojourn Community Church in Louisville (http://www.sojournchurch.com). Thanks for your willingness to lead a group of learners through this study! If you enjoy Four Views of the End Times, I encourage you to continue the conversation with me by aiming a tweet in my direction at http://twitter.com/4ViewsoftheEnd or by digging into my book Christian History Made Easy.

Thanks for teaching Four Views of the End Times! My name is Timothy Paul Jones, and I love living in Louisville, Kentucky, with my wife Rayann and our daughter Hannah—as well as an over-energetic Siberian Husky. Over the past two decades, I’ve had the privilege of serving as pastor in several wonderful congregations of believers, most recently as part of First Baptist Church of Rolling Hills (http://www.fbcrollinghills.org) in Tulsa, Oklahoma. In these contexts, I saw over and over how theology and church history could help people to flesh out their faith in powerful ways.
