Pastor Tim was called to the ministry at an early age and has been involved with music all of his life. He started singing with his older brother and sister as a trio at the age of 6. He first felt the call to preach and preached his first message in a little country church at the age of 12. In 1998, at the age of 24, he helped his mother pastor an independent church in Lily, Kentucky.
Pastor Tim and Katrina Yaden felt led to Parkway Praise Center in 2002, shortly after Pastor Mark and Jennifer came to be the Pastor. They really believe it was all in God's time and God-ordained.
