Tim & Katie Mather
Tim and Katie Mather have dedicated their lives to the message of Wholeness that Jesus pronounced in Luke 4:18.
The Mathers have traveled the US and several countries sharing and training in deliverance and inner healing ministry. Through the development of Bear Creek Ranch, they have finally seen the beginning of a vision planted in their hearts of a Center for Wholeness where seekers can come for deliverance and inner healing ministry and training.
Tim formerly served in the pastorate for over 20 years, traveled the conference circuit for many years, and founded Bear Creek Ranch in 2008. He holds a Bachelor Degree in Theology from Lee University, a Masters in Theology and Doctor of Theology from Covenant Bible Institute. He is the author of three books: Prophetic Deliverance, Out of Bondage, and Escaping Church.
Katie has served alongside Tim in ministry through the pastorate, the conference circuit, and now at Bear Creek Ranch. She holds a Bachelor Degree in Pastoral Counseling from Oral Roberts University, a Master of Ministry, and Doctor of Ministry from Covenant Bible Institute. She is the author of The Five Wholeness Steps and The Healing Path.
Anyone who knows Tim and Katie know that they are all about family and friends. They have 4 children working alongside them: Erin and husband Jason, Heather and husband Kevin, Lucas and wife Pam, and Amber and husband Justin. They have 16 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Despite years of ministry involvement serving the Body of Christ, their primary ministry has always been to the development of a healthy family life. They are blessed to have many who call them friends across the US as well as abroad, in traditional churches as well as house churches.

The Mission: EQUIP
All ministry through Bear Creek Ranch must maintain vigilant attention upon maturity and healthy relationships. We function as a family of kings, each focusing upon the stretch toward maturity personally and corporately by maturing in our inner life and in relationship with others. We are all equipping one another in the pursuit of healing of the whole self: Spirit, Soul, and Body.
"So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ." (Ephesians 4:11-13)
E
Engaging Brokenness…
The Saints are broken and we engage that brokenness with deliverance and inner healing.
“The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.” (Psalm 51:17)
Q
Quickening Relationship…
The Kingdom of God is all about relationship. We are committed to reconnecting and healing the relationships with self, with others, and with God.
“’Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind…’ and the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” (Matthew 22: 37-39)
U
Unearthing Identity...
The King of kings is revealing His True Identity. As we discover our identity, we become the fodder for spiritual giftings for the benefit of all.
“For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.” (1 Corinthians 12:13-14)
I
Instructing Servant Kings…
Practical training and coaching is essential to healthy Kingdom living. As a family of servant kings, we get our own revelations through asking questions and retraining the mind in upside-down Kingdom thinking which leads to healing for the Spirit, Soul, and Body.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” (Romans 12:2)
P
Pursuing Jesus’ Mission…
As servants to the King of kings, we are dedicated to fulfilling each portion of Jesus’ stated mission.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” (Luke 4:18-19 KJV)
The 3-Fold Vision
The Retreat Center
The Retreat Center exists to provide a place to engage the brokenness of the saints through deliverance and inner healing retreats. We currently offer four different retreats: Deliverance Retreat, King Camp, Deliverance Training Retreat, and Gathering of Kings.
There are several more retreats in the making and will be launched over the next couple of years.
The Equipping Center
The Equipping Center exists to raise up Servant Kings through practical equipping and coaching for healthy Kingdom living called Mule Camp. We will offer online classes in two forms: Classes “At Your Own Pace” where you follow the lead of the content and “LIVE” classes where you join a weekly video classroom alongside other students.
(More information coming soon.)
The Community Center
The Community Center exists to connect families, clans, tribes, and nations in order to heal relationships with self, with others, and with God. As folks come through deliverance, we encourage the connection of individuals through our small group coaching program and online Facebook groups.
