Here's just a little info about the crazy author of this blog:
Biographical:
J. Matthew Henry was born in Worcester, MA to James W. & Paula Leslie Henry. In 1996 Matt married Amber Kristen Mattox. Their first daughter, Kyla Rose, was born in 2004 and their second daughter, Charis Anne, arrived in 2006.
Geographical:
Not long after Matt was born his parents spent a brief stint in Kentucky. Matt's family then moved to the Jersey shore community of Wildwood, NJ and then following a couple of moves Matt was raised in Oakland, NJ about 20 miles west of Manhattan, NY. Being called to full-time ministry Matt and his wife Amber moved to Madison, WI and have since relocated the family to Lynchburg, VA.
Spiritual:
While living in Wildwood, NJ where Matt's father was serving as a pastor, Matt and his sister Leslie wanted to have a Vacation Bible School. Being that a beach community was not ideal for VBS they decided to host it themselves. Leslie served as the teacher for Matt and all the stuffed animals. During that week Leslie asked who wanted to ask Jesus into their heart and Matt happened to be the only one who raised his hand! Leslie then led Matt in prayer so Matt could give his life to Christ.
It wasn't until 1988 when Matt was preparing for a short term mission trip to Australia that he committed his life to full time service to Christ. That summer was the beginning of what has been an interesting journey for Matt and his family. At each turn Matt is challenged by God to grow to a deeper level in his spiritual journey.
