His leadership is anchored in biblical fidelity, strategic thinking, and a strong commitment to advancing the gospel in both word and action.
A Strong Spiritual and Academic Foundation
Pastor Dr. Yeboah’s ministry is deeply enriched by an impressive and diverse academic background that spans three continents. He holds a Doctor of Ministry (DMin) degree from the Adventist University of Africa (AUA), Kenya, where he further sharpened his skills in pastoral leadership and applied theology. He also earned a Master’s degree in Pastoral Ministry from Montemorelos University, Mexico, and a Master of Divinity (MDiv) from Andrews University, United States one of the Church’s premier theological institutions.
His foundational training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Theology from the Adventist Seminary of West Africa (Nigeria) and a Diploma in Theology from Valley View College (Ghana). This strong academic formation has not only shaped his preaching and teaching ministry but has also equipped him to engage effectively with the complex spiritual, social, and administrative demands of church leadership in a modern context.
A Journey Marked by Faithful Service
Born in Assin Edubiase in the Central Region of Ghana, Pastor Dr. Timothy Yeboah’s life story is one rooted in humility, perseverance, and a clear sense of divine calling. He officially joined the gospel ministry in 2004 and was ordained in 2009, marking a significant milestone in a journey that would see him serve the Church with distinction in multiple capacities.
Over the years, his ministerial experience has spanned pastoral leadership in several local churches and districts, where he nurtured congregations, strengthened faith communities, and guided members in spiritual growth. His passion for outreach and literature evangelism also led him to serve extensively as a Publishing Director at the Conference level, a role through which he championed the spread of the gospel through Christian literature and innovative mission strategies.
From 2022 to 2025, Dr. Yeboah served as Director of Stewardship, Planned Giving, and Trust Services for the Accra City Conference. In this role, he emphasized faithfulness, accountability, and biblical stewardship, helping members understand the spiritual dimensions of giving and trust in God’s provision.

Pastor Dr. Timothy Yeboah often anchors his leadership in the Spirit of Prophecy and the sure hope of Scripture. His leadership style is both pastoral and administrative firm in principle, yet gracious in approach. Colleagues and members alike describe him as approachable, thoughtful, and deeply committed to prayerful decision-making.
Echoing Ellen G. White’s counsel that “The greatest want of the world is the want of men—men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest” (Education, p. 57), he consistently emphasizes integrity, faithfulness, and unwavering loyalty to God’s mission. When given the opportunity to preach across Adventist churches, he frequently challenges believers with a thought-provoking question: “Do you know your identity as a Christian?” a call to authentic discipleship and purposeful living.
He further points the Church to the blessed hope found in Revelation 21, reminding believers of God’s ultimate promise: “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying… for the former things are passed away” (Revelation 21:4).
For Pastor Dr. Yeboah, this prophetic assurance fuels present-day mission, inspiring the Church to serve faithfully now while looking forward with hope to the coming kingdom of God.
