Leadership
Tim Ma
Senior Pastor
In Christ, Pastor Tim concentrates on the ministry of the word and prayer (Acts 6:4). Tim emphasizes forgiveness, discipleship, mercy, and grace in day-to-day ministry, as well as reliance upon Christ. He loves to see the church develop together as a family who shares the Word of God with people around them for the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10:31).
After a successful business and corporate career, Tim was called to the ministry eighteen years ago while he had cancer and a two-year-old daughter. Responding to Jesus’ call, he left his job and went back to seminary. During those same years, Pastor Tim did the message and helped lead the soup kitchen at First Baptist in Charlottesville every week for six years.
Education: Undergraduate studies at Williams College in political science, philosophy, literature, and religion. Graduate studies predominantly, but not exclusively, at Westminster Theological Seminary in theology, missions, Hebrew, and Greek.
Ministry: 16th year as Senior Pastor, 10th year at Emmanuel. Previously blessed to serve as a deacon, classroom teacher, and home group teacher in the local church before being called to be a pastor.
