Most recently, Dr. Matthews completed a biography of General Colin Powell, who served as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (under Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton) and as Secretary of State (under President George W. Bush). Colin Powell: Imperfect Patriot is published by the University of Notre Dame Press (January 2019).
Currently, Dr. Matthews is a founding partner and Business Director of the Camouflaj game studio, headquartered in Bellevue, Washington.
Once an aimless, ambitionless teenager who barely graduated from college, Powell became an extraordinarily effective and staunchly loyal subordinate to many powerful superiors who, in turn, helped to advance his career. By the time Powell became chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he had developed into the consummate follower―motivated, competent, composed, honorable, and independent.
Imperfect Patriot is the fascinating story of Powell's professional life, and of what we can learn from both his good and bad followership.
Tim’s career in media began in 1980 with the development of a recording studio and music record label. In 1989 Tim started his own advertising agency, which produced over a thousand commercials and videos, including two national TV specials. In 2014 Tim founded Thinking Man Films & Media, an international documentary and publishing company with a focus on exploring some the biggest questions of the past and what they mean for our world today.
A native Minnesotan, Tim’s hobbies include folk music and outdoor activities. Tim and Jill have been married 40 years. They have four (4) married children and eight (8) grandchildren.
After leaving Egypt, the Bible describes the Israelites crossing a deep sea that was miraculously split with walls of water on their right and left. When the Egyptians and their chariot force pursued, the water came crashing back down to destroy the entire army. Are miracles of this kind even possible?
Skeptics contend that no evidence has ever been found for huge numbers of people crossing the wilderness or a mighty sea. Does the lack of evidence at the traditional sites mean the events didn’t happen, or might we have been looking in wrong places all along?
