Halcyon Baptist Church

Family is huge for Pastor Tim as is demonstrated by his deep love for his wife of 30 years, Janet Lee and their four children. This is also demonstrated by his commitment to his church family. His door and his heart are open to all who need him, and he strives to see that his values for spiritual family and community are the heart and soul of Halcyon Baptist Church. Tim Royal received his bachelor's degree from Simpson University and his Master of Divinity from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary where he is currently working on his Doctor of Ministry. He has pastored for the last seventeen years. He is the recipient of the LifeWay Pastoral Leadership Award; Wright-Bramlett Christian Leadership Award and Who’s Who in American Colleges and Universities. Pastor Tim has been Senior Pastor at Halcyon Baptist Church since January 2007. Pastor Tim is passionate about the sense of community at Halcyon which is reflected in our simple purpose statement which is: "Halcyon Baptist Church exists to raise up disciples who: Love God Love One Another Love All People" His life verse is (ask him about it sometime): Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) "I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope and a future."
