Name is Tim and working with Metrobrook Church in Milwuakee to start a new church in the Bay View neighborhood of Milwaukee in 2008. I have been married to my awesome wife Vicky for 8 years. I am a proud new papa, grew up near Detroit Rock City and now am on the other side of Lake Michigan in Brew Town, have a nutty little dog named cooper (Named after Alice not the car), am a massive University of Michigan Football fan, wish I still had my first car a 74 Impala Custom, and rode the public bus for the first time in my life March 06.
Who I'd like to meet: People with less than 80,000 myspace freinds, people who are ready to start a new kind of church that doesn't care where people are coming from in their spiritual journey, but is obsessed with where they are going, and otherwise interesting folk. As far as the question if you could spend a day with anyone? Rob Bell Jr., Steve Andrews, Dave Grohl, or Bono.

Yeah..that was a pic of us in a more crazy time!..Penchoff is a dad now, Carls is a pilot and i'm getting married so we're much more settled...hey pray for Verion (Tony's wife) shes goin' through some pretty serious medical stuff currently.
So what do Norman Geisler and the Wilsons have in common? That's right, the three notable alum of WTC according to Wikipedia! Pretty stinkin' awesome!!!
Dude! Check out Flatfoot 56's "Warriors" video on my page. For some reason, between the back yard football scenario & the punk rock, it reminded me of "Old School Timmy". haha So we need to talk soo ... I know we keep sayin that but really, we do. =-) I know you're crazy busy right now but let me know a good time we'll make it happen. How'd Chill on the Hill go tonight?
You forgot the snakes! This was from Sunday. 4.5 foot rattlesnake on my street. Oh, and go to our blog www. cockingfamily. com and read Lisa's report from the storm last night!
Hey friend... Sorry I missed church tonight. I tried emailing Vicky, but I should have called or something. My family and I headed to Chicago for the weekend, and we ended up staying longer than I thought... Hope it went well. I'm super bummed I missed the convo tonight...
Yeah, man. It was just time to trim it up. haha I assume you're talkin about the bass rigg? Not mine ... it was up there for all the bass players to use. We need to talk soon. Got some questions & stuff for ya.
Hey bro, how are things going? The fort shtill standing? Hows Veritas doing? Im not doing to bad down here. They gave me a gun again! So I go out to thee field for a week and play army. Love ya d00d.
i would tell you the whole story, but it is in andy's lady-friend's comments. it's all about how king cooper was overthrown in a coup de'tat and how the blood brothers are not sure who to throw their alliegence to due to said upheaval.
Haha- ACTUALLY ... before I read your update & realized you were calling it Veritas, I had already decided that I'm getting a pointed, maltese cross tatooed on the inside of my right arm with Veritas vertically & Aequitas horizontally ... my reasoning? Truth is the pillar on which justice is balanced. You like it don't you? ;-)
Hiya Tim! Haven't seen you in ages. How's the fam? Gonna play v-ball at the KRanch again this year? What night? Starts the last week of April...when you think of it that way spring doesn't seem so far away!
I don't think I've seen you in over two years or something. But last time I did see you...(two years ago) you shared this same vision with me. I'm filled joy over the news that it's actually being put into action. I'm in Grand Rapids for school and then leaving the country for a few months so I won't be able to see you in Detroit. But I hope everything goes well and will be praying for your church plant.
just wanted to drop by and see how everything is going. i hope you are doing well and that caleb is too. and i hope that the new church is coming along nicely, i'm sure it is!
Yo dude, I haven't seen, heard, or talked to you in forever. How's life been? I hope everything is working out where you went. Well just wanted to say hi and ask a question as well. Do you remember that techno cd you use to play at 212 all the time? Well I was wondering if you remember the name of the cd. That is all. Cya
Sorry I missed seeing you guys this weekend... Did the Bayview event still happen despite the crazy weather? Was it postponed? I've been sick all week, and so I was taking it easy this weekend... but I missed seeing you and your family. Hope you're all well!
Dude, I'm really excited about your last update . . . well, not so much by the update I guess as by what was reported in the update. =-) That's awesome! I love that God is proving His faithfullness to you. I've been forwarding your emails to my family to keep them in the loop too. So how's my nephew doin? Fittin into any of that freakin sweet Mich gear yet? haha
I know! Back in the Top 25 & first in the Big 10 right? They're fighters . . . maybe even contenders. haha Foo was good. I didn't realize how many hit songs belonged to them. It was fun. Went & saw Daughtry & Day of Fire the following Thur @ the State Fair. That was a good show too. So how are things?
