Timothy Kroll served as Senior Pastor of Northside Baptist Church (St. Petersburg, FL) for 13 years. Besides his pulpit ministry, he provided leadership to Northside’s historic Missions ministry, a large (over 700 students) Christian School (Northside Christian School), and a thriving benevolent ministry (He Cares Food Pantry). Today, he is the President of the Woodrow Kroll Ministries.

Tim’s passion is to become like Jesus – the goal of a disciple of Jesus Christ. This includes knowing the words of Christ, carrying on the ministry of Christ, imitating the life of Christ and helping others to do the same. While at Northside, he helped move the church into a greater pursuit of genuine discipleship as well as transitioning the church to an elder form of governance, and getting the church debt-free for the first time in over 50 years.

Tim has served in the pastorate for over 23 years, having served as the Senior Associate Pastor at Northside for 3 years and the Missions Pastor at Heritage Baptist Church (Lynchburg, VA) for 7 years. It is this pastoral experience and heart that God is using in Tim to see His good blessings come to other pastors around the world. He and his wife Lisa reside in Titusville, Florida. They have three married children, two unmarried children, three grandsons and one granddaughter.
