As a kid, Matthew was interested in knowledge, contemplation and reflection; character traits that are still with him today as a 24 year old man. In 4th grade his tendency to dive deep into topics took him on a journey into studying Hitler, Stalin and the atrocities of World War II; which resulted in a complete disillusionment toward any good in humanity. As a self-described “misanthrope” (one who dislikes humanity and doesn't want to be around people) Matthew hit a low point in middle school when his self-loathing turned into depressive and suicidal contemplations. Until the music of Johnny Cash highlighted a real, not imaginary relationship with God and provided Matthew with the hope he needed to turn his spirit of inquiry to the Bible. After reading the Book of Revelation and the four Gospels in the New Testament, Matthew was brought to tears at the realization of his own sin, his need for a savior and just how gracious God is toward each of us. As he began walking in obedience with the Lord as a teenager, hear how Matthew was reluctant to follow his calling to be an evangelical pastor, yet is now in the home stretch of completing his requirements.
