This is Tim Olson's blog - to write about my personal life, my spiritual life, to help people think, to write about youth group, to write about Church - just a journal. Hopefully friends will be able to keep up with me and my life a bit better this way - and I'd love a comment now and then. Soli Deo Gloria.

I was born in 1973 in Zaire, Africa. My parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents on my mom’s side were all missionaries with the Evangelical Free Church in Zaire. I graduated from boarding school in Zaire (Ubangi Academy) in 1991 and went to Moody Bible Institute. I spent my summers working at Hidden Acres, the Evangelical Free Church camp in Iowa and it was there I met my lovely and gracious wife, Lori (though we didn’t fall in love there). I received a B.A. in Youth Ministry from Moody and spent over 5 years in an Independent Baptist Church in rural Michigan. I left there at God’s call in 2002 to serve at Grace Evangelical Free Church in Eagle Grove, Iowa, as the Youth Pastor. I have an incredible son, Benjamin, and a beautiful daughter, Elise. My wife is a huge part of our ministry with the youth. I am currently pursuing (slowly) a Master of Arts and Religion from Reformed Theological Seminary through their virtual campus (distance education). My passions are for the glory of God, my family, guitar, volleyball, sports in general, and students. Though the future is unclear, I believe God has called me to “full-time” ministry.

Hey Tim! Just checkin out some new things on your blog. I'm really glad you guys enjoyed Girl Feed Boy, and I'm glad we could pull it off and show you guys a fun time. It surprised me that a group was able to get it right...we honestly didn't expect anyone to win. I guess we underestimated. Anyhoo, I best be off. Hope all is well...talk to you soon.
Props to the Girls
It was awesome
