Dr. Timothy A. Gabrielson was pursuing degrees in math and economics at the Colorado School of Mines when he felt called to ministry. After graduating, Tim made one of the least practical and yet best decisions of his life: dedicating himself to the study of the Bible. He earned an M.A. in Biblical Studies (New Testament) at Denver Seminary and a Ph.D. in Judaism and Christianity in Antiquity at Marquette University. While studying for his master’s degree, he also served as a pastor at First Baptist Church of Golden, Colo.
