About Me

Hello, my name is matt. I currently live in the Big D(aka Dallas, Texas)with my wife and my soon to be child. Let me ask you a question...What is your life? And when I say that I mean, what is it you live for? Most people, whether they realize it or not, live simply for the moment with no hope in mind. They may have a plan or a goal that is set before them in life but lack TRUE joy and peace. Hope is a word that is thrown around lightly and used for a more shallow meaning than what it is truly defined as. Hope is not doubtful nor pessimistic.
There is a humanistic movement that is decieving and killing our generation, saying that you can do anything you want and believe whatever you want and it will be true...This is a blind hope that cannot be true. Let me ask you another question...What is going to happen to you when you die? Before you get angry at that question I want you to really really think about that. What is your life? What do you live for? Is it true that the after-life is more than reincarnation or simply just an end of existance? Is there really a heaven and really a hell? Believe what you want to believe and stand strong in your opinions all you want to...Truth is truth and it will never change because you dont agree with it. Do you think I havent rejected this idea before? Do you think that I have held onto my Bible since birth? Well if you do, your wrong...I have grown up in the church all my life. I have been raised to understand who Jesus is and what it means to be a Christian. I have sang all the songs and read all the key verses and have practically heard all the sermons, but it didnt matter. There was still a doubt and skepticism that was growing. A battle was taking place in mind trying to discover what TRUTH really was. Some of you are searching for truth and arent satisfied.
Let me ask you another question...What do you think when you hear the name Jesus? Do you think of a the son of God, a hero, savior or friend? Or do you think hipocrite, lunatic, hater or maybe just a nobody? People in church today claim to know him but really dont. Evangelist Steve Hill once said, " Going to McDonald's doesnt make you a hamburger and going to church doesnt make you a Christian"...Do you know him? I mean that sincerely...DO YOU REALLY KNOW HIM?! There is a hope, a true hope, one who gives eternal life and a true peace. That hope is Jesus. Do you know him?
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
I Cor 1:18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Romans 8:24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? ..

Do not harden your heart

I feel a prompting on my heart to bring notice the darkness that surrounds many of you. I have had many encounters and dreams from God recently that have shook the core of my spirit. He has conti...

Why do we pray anyway?

Have you ever been satisfied with answers that you have heard behind the pulpit. Usually when we pray it's because we need something, some request or desire that isn't feasible unless God steps in. Mo...

It's a girl!

I hate the rain

There is only one thing that I hate more than the devil himself. That thing is called "rain". I really really can't stand waking up in the morning to the sound of little droplets of water, beating aga...
