Personal life
Lambesis is part Greek. A Christian, his lyrics are personal, expanding from relationships, to life's struggles. Many of his lyrics are inspired by Ecclesiastes, which is his favorite book in the Bible. During an August 2010 radio interview, Lambesis boldly stated "I can only really write about what I'm passionate about in life, so naturally my faith, my belief in the teachings of Jesus and His resurrection come across in our lyrics.".[3] Lambesis recently received a "rocking Jesus" tattoo by artist Hannah Aitchison on the television show LA Ink. Tim is the third of four brothers. He was born in Scottsdale, Arizona but moved to San Diego when he was at about the age of seven. All of his brothers live in Scottsdale. His parents own their own company in Carlsbad, CA. Lambesis once worked for his parents for a short while before starting As I Lay Dying. His height is 6'3". Lambesis is married and has a young son, whom he adopted from Ethiopia.[4]
