I’ve known Matt Daniels for nearly 10 years. During these years that I’ve known him I have been astonished by his spiritual growth. Whereas many people would define spiritual growth by using ministry as a scale I’m very reluctant to do so. My scale for spiritual growth is intimacy with Jesus, the effects of that relationship with one's family first and then their neighbors. I have had the privilege to see first- hand and learn how to become more intimate with God as I observed Matt and interacted with him. Likewise, my growth as a father and husband has also been influenced by Matt. The reasoning I and so many others have been so richly influenced by Matt is because he is a man who daily pursues the heart of God.

Matt Daniels opened his heart and his time to our church before ever meeting us. I contacted him, never having met him, and it was as though we had been friends for a lifetime. God has granted him the ability to see the kingdom of God at work in the church and in other’s lives even when the effects are invisible to everyone else. His passion for the Gospel is inspiring. Matt Daniels is my brother in Christ, and I am grateful to God for the opportunity to serve our Lord together with him. We need each other to be complete; let’s be the church together.

I came to know Matt and his wife and children about 5 years ago. We very quickly became family. When I say family, I mean that in the highest regards. Matt is one of the most inspirational and biblical definitions of a Husband and Father there is. His family values have inspired me in being a Mother and encouraged me in God leading me to finding my own Husband. Family is an area the devil has always stolen from me, but in asking Jesus into my life he has placed several amazing men and women of God in my life as family and mentors that have all become my family. Mentor is another roll Matt has been in my life as well. Always there with a listening kind ear, followed with Spirit led prayer and guidance from the Holy Spirit. When it comes to prayer, when Matt says he’ll pray for you he does. He is a prayer warrior.

I have been blessed to be involved with Matt on several ministry occasions. Matt is a true man of God, full of Faith, and Spirit Led. Alongside of him I have witnessed and been part of many, many Miracles of Healing and Deliverances from bondage. John 14:12 says “Whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do.” Anyone who knows Matt has witnessed this in his presence. Having Matt in my life has helped me grow very quickly in my Faith and Relationship with God. I thank Jesus for bringing him and his family into my life everyday.
