About Our People

Tim Timmerman’s (Visual Arts) book, A Bigger World Yet: Faith, Brotherhood, and Same-Sex Needs, has been released through Bird Dog Press. According to Tim, the book “is about an ache and a longing in our culture for friendship and brotherhood … about emotional orphans with wounds and hungers of the heart … about boys who needed connections to loving men and friends growing up, but instead received abuse and absence. This book is one man’s spiritual odyssey.” It is available on Amazon, at Chapters or through Tim.
