Hailing from the serene landscapes of North Georgia, Timothy Roy Carter wears multiple hats with equal finesse. Timothy's spiritual journey was chiseled from a young age, the middle child of a pastor, an inheritance he imbibed and eventually embraced as he, too, chose the path of a lead pastor. Academically, Timothy is no slouch. He boasts a BA in Pastoral Ministries from the esteemed Lee University and further sharpened his theological insights with a Master of Divinities from the Pentecostal Theological Seminary. His credentials, however, don't just reside in parchments and certificates but are echoed in the community he serves and leads with devotion. Timothy's love for the written word manifests in his column for the local newspaper—a testament to his eloquence and deep insights. Before this, he had the privilege of reaching audiences through columns in two other newspapers, disseminating wisdom and observations that were both profound and accessible. While many know him as a pastor and columnist, fewer know his prowess as an author. With a flair for both fiction and nonfiction, Timothy's bibliography is diverse. He crafts nonfictional guides aimed at nurturing budding writers while also penning works focused on demystifying the intricacies of the Bible for the lay reader. For those with a penchant for the imaginative, Timothy's science fiction works offer a delightful escape, marrying profound spiritual insights with the limitless boundaries of speculative fiction. Beyond the pulpit and the pen, Timothy is an artist at heart. He finds solace in the strokes of paintbrushes and the sketches of pencils, creating visual art that speaks as eloquently as his writings. He is also a staunch advocate for holistic well-being, recognizing the symbiotic relationship between the mind, body, and spirit. This has led him to delve deep into nutrition and exercise, not just as a personal pursuit but as a mission to educate and elevate others. In Timothy Roy Carter, one finds a harmonious blend of a spiritual guide, a wordsmith, an artist, and a wellness advocate. But above all, at his core, he is an educator fervently dedicated to the noble cause of enlightening minds and enriching souls. He is the author of several books, blogs, newspapers, and international journal articles. Carter holds degrees of Bachelor of Science in Pastoral Ministries, with a concentration in Counseling from Lee University (2005); Master of Divinities with a concentration in Counseling from Pentecostal Theological Seminary (2008). Carter is a Bishop with Church of God, Cleveland, TN.; License Community Service Chaplain; Licensed Level 4 Church Consultant; Christian Counselor.
