Tim Dillard – Non-Denominational
Tim Dillard is called to grow things and grow people. With over 20 years in the advertising and marketing business, he’s the first to admit he’s never seen anything as amazing as the growth of Lakewood Church during his two plus years as the Director of Ministry Development. He has been the subject of numerous local, regional and national news stories and some of his techniques have been the subject of study at American universities such as Texas A&M and Oklahoma State. He has spoken to numerous organizations on Brand Development including the National Collegiate Athletics Association National Convention. “Lakewood Church is the standard. I am called to take the menu of principles I saw at work at Lakewood and offer them to churches all over the United States. What makes Lakewood Church tick is a multi-ethnic membership charged with God’s unconditional love. It’s impossible to describe what’s happened there and how much it has meant to my life,” Dillard stated. Mr. Dillard was saved at Lakewood in 1981 and gave up a secular job with a large, growing marketing company in Houston to spend two years at Lakewood working on special projects. He is married and has three children. His religious affiliation is that he was brought up Episcopalian, became an agnostic, married a Catholic and ended up a non-affiliated Charismatic.

Matt Schulte - Methodist
Matt Schulte gets things done no matter what the obstacles in his way. And he does so while maintaining a calm, cool exterior that faintly masks his bulldoggish determination to bring every project in on time and under budget. Matt has one of the most impressive backgrounds any church could ever draw upon. He was one of the top promoters in the country handling national acts such as the Rolling Stones, Sting and the Spice Girls. He personally produced over 500 concerts a year which makes him a leading expert as far as the American church is concerned. Why? Because Matt has forgotten more about image mag, lighting and sound and the perspective of the audience than most people will ever know. He gave his heart to the Lord at a 1999 Newsboys concert which he had produced and attracted over 33,000 people to Houston’s Astrodome. At the time, the concert was the single largest crowd for a single band Christian music event in the United States. Matt has since taken over the contemporary service at his church. He is a masterful guitar player and accomplished music producer. Mr. Schulte is married and has two young sons.
