Tim Mather was born and brought up in Derbyshire, England. Through the influence of godly parents and the believers in their small assembly, he developed a love for the Scriptures from an early age. Tim and his wife, Sarah, have served the Lord in young people's work in Birmingham, England, and in Murree, Pakistan. With their four children, they now reside in Southeast Asia, where they continue to work with young people, and minister to local believers. They are commended from their assembly in Warrington, England.
