In this episode, I sit down with Neil Getzlow, author of Unmasked, to talk about redemption, accountability, and the transforming power of God’s grace. Neil shares his personal journey of overcoming hidden sin and discovering the freedom that comes through confession and surrender.

This is a raw and hope-filled conversation about what it really means to be restored — not by our strength, but by God’s mercy.

In this episode, I open up about moments of discouragement—times when it felt like no doors were opening for I Am Matthew Ministries and I began to wonder if maybe it’s because I’m not ready yet.

We dive into 1 Peter 4:7–11, where Peter reminds us to stay clear-minded, love deeply, and use our gifts to serve others while we wait for God’s timing. Even when doors seem closed, God is still preparing us for what’s next.

This message is for anyone who’s felt stuck, overlooked, or waiting on God to move. There’s still hope in the waiting—because God’s silence doesn’t mean absence, and His “not yet” still carries purpose.

In this episode, I open up about my own battles with anxiety—moments when old memories crept back in, and even times when the pressure of a big ministry day made my heart race. But through every moment of panic, I’ve found that peace is possible when we keep our eyes on Jesus.

We look at Philippians 4:6–7, where Paul reminds us not to be anxious about anything, but to bring everything to God in prayer. Then we go to Matthew 14:22–33, where Peter steps out of the boat toward Jesus—only to start sinking when he looks at the waves. It’s a powerful reminder that peace doesn’t come from calm circumstances, but from the One who walks with us through the storm.

If anxiety has ever tried to steal your peace, this message will help you find hope in the middle of the panic. God hasn’t left you—He’s right beside you, steadying your steps.

In this episode, I start by talking about my families recent vacation and the awesome opportunity to meet Forrest Frank in person. Forrest had shared a YouTube short about feeling a shift—like Jesus is coming back soon—and that sparked today’s discussion. It reminded us of 1 Thessalonians 5:4, where Paul says that even though Jesus will come like a thief in the night, we are not children of darkness but of the light.From there, we move into Ephesians 2:1–10, where Paul reminds us that God has brought us from death to life through His grace. Verses 1–9 show us the hope we have in His mercy, and verse 10 ties it all together—showing that we’ve been made alive for a purpose, to walk in the good works He’s prepared for us.This episode reminds us that our hope is both present and future: we live ready for His return, walking daily in the purpose His grace provides.Scripture Focus:📖 1 Thessalonians 5:1–6📖 Ephesians 2:1–10If you’d like to learn more about the ministry or support our mission, visit www.iammatthewministries.com or give through Venmo @IAmMatthewMinistries.
