"Two of my greatest fears have always been hearing the words, ‘You have cancer,’ and being falsely accused of a crime. Well, I guess I can scratch two things off my anti-bucket list.”

Tim Sharer became a mentor in 1989 when a student leader application literally hit him in the chest, thrown by a youth minister during a church service. Finding contentment and purpose in helping disciple young men, Tim spent the next thirty years building a community of men who continued to support each other, long after they’d moved on to start their families and careers. Many would lead successful, fulfilled lives, going on to become business leaders, pastors, college professors, a state legislator, an Air Force Lt. Colonel, a Space Force Captain, and even a ten-year-player in the NFL.

But in 2021, a false accusation would bring Tim’s life crashing down around him. After his years of mentoring and supporting men of all ages and backgrounds, Tim’s legacy and the reputation he’d painstakingly built were in shambles. Holding tight to his faith and the knowledge of his innocence, Tim and his courageous family endured rumors, lies, betrayals, and even death threats. All the while, the men he’d poured encouragement, faith, and support into now gathered around Tim to support him. In 12 Seconds, Tim shares his story in his own words, along with the proof of God’s faithfulness and mercy along the way.
