Tim Udouj
I grew up in Memphis, but I prefer Carolina-style BBQ. My wife, Rosie, grew up in Pennsylvania, but prefers the muggy heat of the south. Together we have three children (Ellie, Sam, and Jillian) who were all born during the month of June, which is generally a time of heat and BBQ consumption. I studied literature at the University of Tennessee and theology at Reformed Theological Seminary, and currently serve as the Reformed Univeristy Fellowship (RUF) campus minister at Furman University in Greenville, South Carolina. My family & I cannot wait to be back at Greystone!
“The cost for the recipient of God’s grace is NOTHING—and no price could be higher for arrogant people to pay. Something within me longs for a religion that requires payment. I may like an occasional free gift, but I cannot bear the loss of pride and swagger that occurs when I give my life and nothing is required. Grace is free, and that is disturbing. It is so distressing, in fact, that most who receive it work hard to find some way to preserve their arrogance by laborious piety. The often sincere, but arrogant, penance in many cases serves to retain their fase pride and in turn to obligate God to act on their belhalf.” —Dan Allender, Bold Love
