Tim Challies

Tim Challies (* 1976) ist ein kanadischer Autor, Blogger und ehemaliger Pastor aus Toronto, der dem reformiert-baptistischen Spektrum angehört. Bekanntheit erlangte er durch sein reichweitenstarkes Weblog sowie Schriften zu geistlichem Urteilsvermögen, christlicher Medienethik und persönlicher Trauerbewältigung. Für heutige Bibelleser vermittelt er klassische reformierte Theologie für den Alltag, stößt jedoch mit seinen strikt komplementaristischen Positionen und einzelnen publizistischen Stellungnahmen zu innerkirchlichen Konflikten auch auf Kritik.
