About Dr. Tim Westley

Pro: God | Family | Constitution

I believe the Word of God still matters, traditional family values are still important, & the U.S. Constitution should be followed and not diluted!  I believe in the rule of law, if we have them, follow them, or pay the consequences! 

I proudly served in the U.S. Army for seven years on active duty and one year with the Texas National Guard. I’m the author of five books and a graduate of Wayland Baptist University, where I earned a B.S. in Religion and a Master of Christian Ministry. I later completed a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership from Trident University International.

One of my greatest honors was pastoring Shepherd’s Vineyard Christian Church for over 12 years. Today, I continue serving in ministry as a Group Leader at Cornerstone Church under the leadership of Pastors John and Matthew Hagee.

My professional journey includes time as a public school teacher, but I found a long-term home in higher education—as a college instructor and former Area Chair. One of my favorite courses to teach was Critical Thinking, a skill essential for strong leadership as the next Mayor of San Antonio.

In the corporate world, I’ve empowered countless individuals to learn English as an ESL instructor for a Fortune 500 company. As a professional speaker, I’ve traveled thousands of miles to inspire high school students and educators nationwide, helping prepare the next generation for college, careers, and success.

Politically, I’ve had the honor of being a two-time Republican nominee for U.S. Congress (TX-15) and was a Republican runoff candidate for Texas Land Commissioner. I also served nearly two years as Historian for the Republican Party of Texas, engaging communities statewide with powerful discussions on history and heritage.

Currently, I serve as an Education Services Specialist with the Department of Defense, supporting 32 Military Entrance Processing Stations (MEPS) across the country.

Above all, I’m a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. My wife Tracia and I have been married for over 29 years. We are blessed with three adult children, two amazing grandsons, and a beautiful granddaughter.

We are deeply thankful for the life God has given us and are excited for the opportunity to give back by serving the great city of San Antonio. To God Be The Glory!
