# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Timothy came from Lystra or Derbe in Asia Minor, born to a Greek father and a Jewish mother who had converted to Christianity. Paul met him during his second missionary journey, and Timothy joined him and Silas as a companion and missionary partner. He traveled extensively with Paul, who mentored him through the expansion of early Christianity. Paul later addressed two epistles directly to Timothy — the First and Second Epistles to Timothy — which became part of the New Testament canon. Timothy went on to serve as the first Catholic bishop of Ephesus. According to the Acts of Timothy, he died around AD 97.
