Free and Open to the Public
Dr. Timothy Warren serves as professor of Pastoral Ministries at Dallas Theological Seminary. When Dr. Warren teaches pastoral ministries he draws from over 35 years of personal experience. After serving as a chaplain's assistant in the U.S. Army and the Texas Air National Guard, he pastured churches in Texas and Ohio. He has been an educational consultant to his home church for 20 years and maintains an active schedule of speaking, writing, and teaching. His teaching interest is preaching and his research interests are how the preacher does theology as part of the weekly preaching process and how to preach topical expository sermons.

About the Rom Lectures on Preaching
The Rom Lectures on Preaching have been funded by the family of the late Rev. Bernhard Rom to bring to the TEDS campus outstanding representatives of the gift and ministry of preaching.
Bernhard Rom was born in Lyngdal, Norway, in 1892 and came to a farm in Lily, South Dakota, in 1910. He attended Moody Bible Institute and furthered his education by studying with the Presbyterian denomination. Rev. Rom served only two pastorates, the first of which was Bethesda Evangelical Free Church in Pullman, Illinois, which later merged to form the Village Church of South Holland, still affiliated with the EFCA. From 1924 until his retirement in 1957, he served the Bethany Evangelical Free Church of Madison, Wisconsin. Following retirement, he continued to live in Madison until his death in 1965. He is survived by his daughter Mrs. Harold Margaret Ann Broman.
Rev. Rom was a consistent biblical expositor and an unusually fine communicator whose preaching drew many to services each Lord's Day. It is to his commitment to biblical preaching and to his leadership within the EFCA that these lectures on preaching are dedicated.
