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 and Slips, two apps built around the same idea: simple tools that stay out of your way.
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 that’s productivity and workflows, technology and the tools I use, web design and development, thoughts on ministry and life, and being a dad and husband. No grand themes or content strategies. Just thinking out loud about things I’m working on or learning.
If you’d like the occasional heads-up when I make or write something new, you can subscribe to my newsletter. It’s rare, and easy to leave.
