The Timothy Lectures

The Timothy Lectures are presented to the Seminary students and open to the community. Each year a seasoned and effective pastor shares his experience from pastoral life for the benefit of students. The Lectures provide sound, challenging, practical insight to ministers-in-the-making. Pastors speak in personal and candid ways about their lives in the parish.

Each Timothy Lecture takes place over one or two days giving participants the opportunity to focus on one topic quickly and in-depth. Generous anonymous donations have made it possible to offer the Lectures free of charge.
