Senior Pastor: Jim Duggan

On December 9, 1964 the angels sang, the trumpets sounded, and a voice from heaven shouted:

“Look out below!”

That is the day the world was introduced to Jim Duggan. Born in the small town of Sandersville, Georgia, Jim was raised in nearby (and slightly larger) Macon. Due to family heritage and hometown upbringing, Jim is bilingual – he speaks fluent English and Redneck.

Jim enjoyed the blessing of being raised in a Christian home, educated at a Christian school, and attended a strong Christ centered church. He received a B.A. from Mercer University in 1987 and a Master’s Degree from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1997. He also enjoyed additional studies at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary’s North Georgia Campus.

On October 26, 1991 Jim hit the lottery big time! Well, not literally, but even better – that is the day he married his sweetheart, the former Andrea Johnson. Jim and Andrea were blessed with a daughter, Rebekah, on September 6, 2002. They have one pet of their own, a cat Rahab.

In 1982, Jim began in ministry serving various churches as in youth and music ministries, but in 1986, jim recognized God’s calling on his life to be a pastor. He has pastored Garrison Baptist Church in Warner Robins, Georgia, Cooperville Baptist Church (Coopers, GA), Cadwell (GA) Baptist Church, Pointe South Community Church (Riverdale, GA), First Baptist Church of Hoschton, Georgia, and now, First Baptist Church, Ty Ty, Georgia.

Jim loves to write, read, and surf the internet. He is a big-time sports fan - Braves, Falcons, and Jackets. He publishes a biweekly blog, Jim’s Gems and a monthly article in The Christian Voice magazine. He loves music – everything from classical to R&B, from country to rock and everything in between. Jim collects Tabasco® trinkets and smiley faces and enjoys photography as a hobby.

She also graduated with honors with an Associate in History from Abraham Baldwin College in Tifton. As a student at Tift County High in Tifton, she was in Chorus and Show Choir. Drawing on this experience, she is a member of the Ty Ty Praise Team which provides music at our 8:30 a.m. service.
