[Note: The engagement took place at The Establishment Theatre where Tim is in an improv group with ComedySportz!]
When my husband Tim asked me to marry him (which started a slew of Instagram photos of the event), a few of you asked us to tell our story.
Well, Tim’s a) incredibly thoughtful; b) incredibly creative and c) a professional videographer. So once he set his plan in motion – which took two months of sneakiness – he knew every moment would be documented. Sure it’s nice to show off to the family & friends, but our real hope in this is that others see Christ’s love in us. That is only where our love for each other can begin.
One of the things I love most about Tim is his intentional pursuit of me, as a woman. A passionate, Godly man who pursued? It was a rare trait. So women, take heart! They do exist! As you watch (or read) our story (it’s in the description part of the video), it will give you context to how he proposed the way he did. All of the crazy elements of the proposal had significance to our story!
Here’s the video below, but for the full description, you might want to click over and watch it on its YouTube page. We hope you are encouraged by it, inspired by it, and that most of all, you will see how a redemptive God can take two broken people who love Him and join them together for His work.

Men like that make the rest of us look bad. (Glad you got one of the good ones.)
Adam, from the time I’ve “known” you, you don’t look bad! You have such a generous and compassionate heart!
I have one of the good ones myself. I am glad that you do as well. It has been one of my prayers for you. And that you will both be one of the good ones to each other is my continued prayer for you both. Thanks Be To God, Amen!
Amen!
That was fantastic. Thank you for sharing your joy Anne.

Thanks, Michael. I can’t wait for him to meet you.
Anne & Tim!
Oh, man! Thankful for such a beautiful and tangible reminder that Jesus knows us and pursues us with extravagant love. Just like Tim listened and remembered your list…He knows every “list” we write down or make in our heads, he knows what will make us delight in Him, hears every prayer. YES!
Thanks for sharing this!
So true, so true! Preach it, girl!
Honestly, this made me cry. It is the answer to so many prayers. I hope other singles will watch it and be inspired.
Thank you for being one (and Gail being two) who have faithfully prayed for me. You have been all over the spectrum of my story and this encourages me to share that story with others…for His glory! :)
PS – INFJ = WIN.
Wow! What an unbelievably sweet and touching story. I’m so glad you linked to the long version with the background of it all, as well. You both look giddy and glowy in the intro part of the video!
Haha…we kinda are I guess! :) Doesn’t hurt that Tim has a great light kit for video!
