Tim Schenck

The Rev. Tim Schenck is an avid coffee drinker, Episcopal priest, author, humorist, syndicated columnist, blogger, and creator of the wildly popular online devotion, Lent Madness (think saints doing battle in basketball-style brackets).

Pastor of St. John's Episcopal Church in Hingham, Massachusetts, on Boston’s South Shore for the past nine years, Tim previously served parishes in Baltimore and New York.

Tim is active on social media (follow him on Twitter @FatherTim), blogs at Clergy Confidential, and writes a monthly column for Gatehouse Media full of humor and inspiration titled In Good Faith. His latest book, Holy Grounds: The Surprising Connection Between Coffee and Faith -- From Dancing Goats to Satan's Drink (Fortress Press), will available in the Spring of 2019.

When not tending to his congregation, writing, or drinking coffee (often simultaneously), Tim enjoys life with his wife, Bryna, two teenage sons, and their dog Delilah.


“Love God and love neighbor. Simple, straightforward, no frills. When you remember the basics, everything else eventually falls into place.”
