Tim Bowers
is a product of grace—
—God’s Grace. And that very
grace is the subject of this book. At the time this was
written, Tim was a resident of South Carolina’s
upstate. Now, finally, he has moved “home,”
to Athens, Georgia.
His favorite movie, Lonesome Dove, is
the classic account of retired Texas Ranger Captains W.F.
Call and Augustus McRae--a story of adventure, of risk
and reward, of the joy in the journey. Call is serious,
business minded, matter of fact. McRae, quite the opposite;
he views life as a dance, a thing of beauty. As something
to behold, to embrace, to enjoy. For Call, for the most
part, life was emotionless. But even he had a sense of
adventure, and that adventure would force him to tap into
emotions he never knew he had. That adventure would forever
change his life. Tim believes as well that life is a dance,
a thing of beauty. And he further believes that it is
an adventure in grace. Grace to behold, to embrace, to
enjoy. He believes that it is God’s grace which
underscores our very lives and permeates both our every
relationship and our every adventure.
Tim is the father of two children and
the third of four born to his parents, both retired educators.
He is firmly and forever a product of the South, having
grown up in Georgia and in the Southern Baptist Church;
however, it was while living in Nashville, Tennessee,
as a young businessman, that he discovered the doctrine
and meaning of grace by faith alone.
Since earning his M.Div in 1998, Tim
has worked as a pastor, an outreach director, and as a
church planter. He believes that the Church should reflect
the Savior upon Whose cross it is founded—that it
should be raw and real and reflect both the passion and
the compassion of Jesus Christ Himself. That it should
be anything but boring and that it should proclaim grace
by faith alone in a nonjudgmental manner that truly changes
lives.
