Servant leadership is a trendy topic, but practically speaking it’s one of the hardest things to do.

Tim Tucker, author of Grab a Towel: Christ-Centered Leadership for the 21st Century, has been through tremendous hardships in his life. During times of overwhelming grief, God has empowered Tim to continue donning the towel of servant leadership.

Tim shares his compelling story of God’s faithfulness in his life and how the Lord used him to foster a movement in Africa. Tim credits his impact to the “steel spine” God provided him.

In 2013 Tim joined The Message Trust, founding the first international hub of The Message in Cape Town, South Africa, to reach urban youth through Gospel-centred and holistic discipleship programs. Recently, Tim joined The Message’s global development team to guide operations across African.

Tim is passionate about Africa and, in particular, investing in African leaders. His books include The Pace Setter, Grab a Towel, and Grief and Grace, which tracks his journey through the loss of his first wife.

Tim currently is married to Christina. The couple and their four children reside in Cape Town.

A wealth of resources from Tim are available at the Grab a Towel site. Connect with Tim on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
