Meet Storied’s Leadership!

Lead Pastor

TIM HAWKINS


I’m Tim, and I’m honored to serve as the lead pastor of Storied! I’ve been married to Kayla, my incredible wife of nearly 13 years. Together, we’re raising three adventurous sons — Jamison (8), Whitman (6), and Sutton (3) — who fill our lives with joy, laughter, and plenty of energy! Here are a few things I’d love for you to know about me…

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Family Ministry and Counseling from Manhattan Christian College, where I developed a passion for guiding others through life’s challenges with grace and compassion. In 2017, I earned a Master of Theology with a focus on leadership from Dallas Theological Seminary (though I humbly admit I’m still learning every day). I have a deep love for reading by candlelight — a habit that makes my wife, Kayla, joke that I was born in the wrong century, LOL! Fitness is more than just a hobby for me — it’s a daily commitment. You’ll often find me lifting weights or breaking a sweat at our local gym. People’s stories truly matter to me. I have a genuine curiosity and a desire to ask questions that help me understand others more deeply, valuing every detail they’re willing to share. As a pastor, I’m deeply convicted that my calling is to encourage, equip, and remind Christians of the incredible power they have in Christ to make an impact for God’s Kingdom.
