Dr. Tim Rumley teaches courses in ministry and leadership and is chair of the MA in Ministry program for Grace Christian University. His expertise is in the intersection of Christian faith and education. He teaches servants of Christ to create educational programs in churches, families, schools, and universities that foster formation of Christians in the image of Christ. He wants to see his students pray without ceasing (1 Thess 5:17), be servants (John 13:1-15), and lead the church to grow together into the image of Christ (Eph 4:11-16).

Dr. Rumley served as a pastor for 11 years, as head of a PS-12 Christian School for 11 years, and has been teaching and leading in Christian higher education for 14 years (with Grace Christian University since 2015), previously as Associate Provost until 2024. He is the father of six adult children and grandfather of 13.
