Barry Stricker

Barry has been a member of Tiburon Baptist Church since 1979. He was called to pastor in 1993. His main areas of ministry responsibility include preaching, teaching, and pastoral care. Barry is married to Julie, and they have two children, Eric and Molly.

Barry first came to TBC as a seminary student. During his student days, he served as a Bible study teacher, choir member, deacon, and a member of several committees. Upon receiving his theological degrees, Barry became a faculty member at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary. During that time, he continued to be active in his church ministry. Then, fourteen years after first becoming a part of the TBC family , the church asked Barry to consider a call to pastor. This invitation was a surprise to most everyone involved -- but God's call was unmistakable and clear. Barry resigned from his teaching responsibilities at the seminary and began his service as pastor in June of 1993.

Barry was born in Kentucky and graduated from high school in Louisville. He received his B.A. from Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and his M.Div. and Ph.D. from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary in Mill Valley, California.
