As a teenager in high school, Matthew Teis wanted to see people come to Christ. Pursuing that goal would change the course of his life forever.

As a seventeen-year-old attending summer camp, Matthew Teis was impressed with the need for people to make an eternal decision and to receive Christ. He thought he could make that difference through politics.

 While attending college, God impressed on his life that ministry was a better avenue to invest his energy. Changing his major to pastoral ministries, Matt gained a deeper understanding of Scripture, an appreciation for ministry, and much opportunity to learn practical ministry.

Being led back to his home church in Las Vegas to become the executive pastor at Liberty Baptist Church has given Pastor Matt daily opportunities to speak to new people about Christ. He has been serving in Liberty Baptist Church for over fifteen years now and has the privilege to see people make life-changing choices.

In addition to ministering and keeping the church operating, Pastor Teis was appointed chaplain for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the eighth largest police bureau in the country. He also co-chairs the Heroes United Initiative, an organization dedicated to eliminating violent crime in the most violent area of Las Vegas. Pastor Matt is thankful for the opportunities the Lord has given him to speak publicly and make a difference in his community.

Pastor Teis is a sought-after speaker for colleges, schools, churches, revivals and conferences. He and his wife, Breanna, are blessed with four children.
