Timothy Morrow
Pastor
Tim was born in North Carolina, which he endearingly calls, “the motherland”. Being the son of a pastor, he lived in several locations as a kid, mostly in North Carolina. He graduated high school there in 1989, the same year he moved out to Wyoming. His wife Jill is a Montana native, born and raised in Billings, where she graduated from West High in 1990. They have 3 daughters and one son-in-law, Sierra and her husband Colin, Madison, & Sophe.
Tim graduated from Northwest College (Powell), University of Wyoming, and Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC. He loves spending time with his wife & three girls. His favorite pastimes are being in the Wyoming outdoors, fly-fishing, and hunting, as well as backpacking in the Bighorn & Beartooth Mountains.
Tim is passionate to see Jesus exalted in this church and in our community. His desire is that we all become the “light and salt” to the world that Jesus has called us to be. He is determined, by God’s grace, to see that Christ and the gospel remains the centerpiece of New Life Church.

ANDREW SEVERINSEN
Pastor of Discipleship
Andrew grew up in a loving Christian home in Southern California and graduated from UCLA in 2006 with a degree in mathematics. Having sights set on seminary, he immediately began his theological education and training at Talbot School of Theology (Biola University) and graduated with a Master of Divinity degree in 2011. Having tons of mutual friends, Andrew met Rachel in 2010 at a wedding in which they were both part of the bridal party. Rachel bet the bridesmaids that she could get Andrew to dance with her at the reception… she charmed him and they got married in 2011. Although all their family are no longer in CA, they do still have great affection for So Cal - mainly their friends, In-N-Out Burger, and Andrew’s beloved UCLA Bruins.
In 2012, just before their first wedding anniversary, Andrew and Rachel moved to Powell for a pastoral ministry opportunity and it immediately became home. Rachel is a nurse at Powell Hospital, and they both love to serve this amazing community in the Big Horn Basin. After many years in student ministries, Andrew had the great blessing of leading some amazing communities of faith as a Lead/Teaching Pastor since 2017, including a special place and people in Kona, Hawaii. As beautiful and warm as Hawaii is, Heart Mountain is home, and with great joy (and some sadness for sure) they moved back home here in 2024. Andrew loves teaching and equipping God’s people, helping all of us in this journey of discipleship know Christ Jesus more intimately and point each other to Him, our greatest Treasure and Joy.
