Matt grew up as missionary kid in Bangladesh and the Philippines before returning to the U.S. as a 6th grader. As a fourteen year old, Matt sensed God's leading into pastoral ministry, due in large part to the influence of his youth pastor.

He then attended Cedarville University in Ohio where he completed a Bachelor's degree in communications, as well as serving in a local church as the Jr. High leader.
