About
Hey, I'm Matt. I'm a pastor, married to Kalena, and a father of two. I spend my days serving at church, building stuff on the web, and trying to keep up with my kids.
What I Do
I pastor a church, which means I get to walk with people through all kinds of life stuff. It's messy and beautiful and I love it. When I'm not doing that, I'm usually tinkering with websites, writing, or figuring out how to make things work better.
I'm also the developer behind Axiom Bible, a Bible reading app for iPhone. It grew out of my own desire for a simpler, more focused way to read Scripture, and building it has become one of my favorite creative outlets.
Over the years, I've built a large selection of themes for various platforms, including some of the most popular themes for Micro.blog (such as the 2025 default theme).
What I Write About
I write about whatever's on my mind, usually stuff related to:
- Productivity and workflows that actually work
- Technology and tools I use
- Web design and development
- Thoughts on ministry and life
- Being a dad and husband No grand themes or content strategies. Just thinking out loud about things I'm working on or learning.
Colophon
This site is built with Bear Blog, a fast, privacy-friendly platform focused on simplicity and performance. The design is custom, with inspiration taken from my previous work in theme development.
