About Timothée:
Timothee Davi has been teaching at Bethlehem College and Seminary for the last five years. He has mainly taught Greek, and Latin. Now, he and his wife are preparing to join the Cameroon extension site of Bethlehem in Yaoundé. Timothée completed his Master of Art’s degree in “Théologie Fondamentale” at the “Faculté de Théologie Protestante de Strasbourg” in Strasbourg, France. His Master’s thesis consisted of an exegetical study of the Gospel of John; namely an exegesis of John 18:1-11 titled “The Johannic Arrest: Between Agony and Irony?” Before that, he conducted his undergraduate studies at the “Institut et Faculté de Théologie de Jérusalem” in Jerusalem, Israel.
When not teaching at Bethlehem College and Seminary, Timothée works as a Freelance Translator (English to French) on diverse theological projects. He has also worked as a French Liaison for the “Réseau Transafricain de Formation” (Transafrican Network of Education).
Being from francophone Belgium, Timothée moved to the USA as a result of meeting Abigail – his wife, who is from the USA – while studying in Strasbourg. They now live in Saint Paul and love spending their time with their son, engaging in thoughtful conversations about big ideas, reading, watching British shows, and playing board games.
About Timothee's Family:
Timothée was born and raised in Belgium to immigrant parents. After his conversion in college, he completed his undergraduate in theology and biblical languages in Jerusalem, Israel. Timothée then went on to finish his ThM in exegesis in Strasburg, France where he met Abby. Timothée moved to the US in 2016 and now teaches Latin and Greek at Bethlehem Baptist College and Seminary, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. A native French speaker, he delights to awe and amaze his current students with his encyclopedic Church history knowledge as well as tease them for their idiosyncratic American tendencies. Abby was born and raised in St. Paul, Minnesota. She attended Bethel University and earned her undergraduate in Elementary and Middle School education. Abby has spent the last five years teaching 5th grade at Hmong College Prep Academy, a charter school in St. Paul. Now she spends her days studying the growth and development of their little one, Calvin, desperately waiting for signs of reading development. She can be found at home, reading murder mystery novels aloud to Calvin. We just welcomed our first son, Calvin, in January 2023. Calvin enjoys cuddles and making loud noises. He recently discovered his hands are quite tasty as well.
