Summary

If you've ever found yourself with a full schedule but an empty heart, you're in good company. It's far too easy to get caught up in our tasks and commitments and miss out on the presence of God who's always with us.

Tim Timmons is one of my friends who reminds me that God is always available in the here and now.

After two decades of ministry and a lifetime of looking for Jesus, Tim is no stranger to pain, cancer, sorrow, failure, joy and hope. “For most of my life,” Tim shares, “I found myself working FOR God, and not WITH Him, which led to my tired soul desperately searching for more. Saying, ‘Jesus, is this all there is?’”

When Tim is home, he, Hilary (his wife of 23 years), their four children, and friends gather all week long, including Sunday mornings (Journey Church), and encourage each other to put Jesus into practice in the regular rhythms of our days.

Tim has a new album with Integrity Music, titled HERE, which is now available.

0:00.0	Hey everybody welcome to another episode of the Dream Big Podcast with Bob
0:12.3	Gothen Friends. I'm Scott Schimmel your host. Now I'm here to introduce you to a
0:16.0	conversation that Bob has with musician Tim Timmons. It's a great name. It makes me laugh every time
0:22.8	Tim Timmons. You're gonna enjoy for a few reasons. One, he's extremely relatable
0:28.8	down-to-earth, funny, full of wit, full of charm. He's also really wise particularly
0:34.5	around the conversation that they get into about being present and being filled with wonder
0:41.0	with the present moment. Tim's got a fascinating story that they dig into with the cancer diagnosis
0:46.6	and being on borrowed time and and I know it's it's kind of a maybe an age old metaphor. What would
0:53.3	you do if you knew that you only had a little bit of time left? How would that change things but
0:59.1	it's it's an oldie but a goodie. It helps us. It helps me clear out the deck, move away the trivial
1:06.7	things that don't matter and focus on the things that do. Focus on the dreams, focus on the relationships,
1:13.2	focus on being present with other people. So you're gonna enjoy the content. You're also I think
1:18.1	gonna enjoy the relationship that Bob and Tim have had for years and just to be in the their
1:24.5	fellowship, their friendship is a gift as well. So this is Bob's conversation with Tim Timmons.
1:33.2	Tim, thank you so much for jumping on the podcast. It's great to see your face. Good to see your
1:39.2	face. I think the last time we were within arms reach of each other, we were on a boat and it was
1:45.6	going it was supposed to stop at Turks and Kekos. Yep. And then we found out that only one engine
1:52.0	on the boat worked. Yes. Every time. I mean, that was yeah, that was so great. We're in the
1:56.6	middle of the storm. I was sad to miss the Turks, but I really missed the Kekos because I really
2:01.8	wanted someone else. I've been I've been a three or four of these things now and every time it's
2:06.8	like we're going there and never have I been there. So it's an imaginary. It's an all-in-illusion
2:12.3	yeah. It was for the people that haven't bumped into you along the way. Who are you? What do you
