Speaking

A story of surrender, transformation, and the living Christ.

This is the story of what happened when a man who had been going through the motions his whole life finally met Jesus for real. I'm not a pastor and I don't have a degree in theology. What I have is that. If it would serve your people, I'd be glad to come tell it.

Churches and Sunday services. Men's groups and Bible studies. Recovery ministries. Prison and jail ministry. Senior living communities. Young adult and college groups. Retreats and community events.

I'm based in southeast Michigan and I'll travel anywhere in the metro Detroit area. Farther than that, let's talk — if it works out, I'll come.

I don't ask for a fee. If you want to cover travel or take up an offering, that's up to you — but it is never a condition. I'm not doing this for a living. I'm doing this out of love for my Lord and Savior, and to spread His love and His message.

About Matt

I'm Matt Bodo. I live in Lake Orion, Michigan, with my wife, Kris — we raised our four kids here. Most mornings you'll find me out walking the dogs, Gibson and Bo, before the day gets going. When I'm not on the boat or watching college or pro football, I'm spending time and making memories with my family.

I knew about Jesus my whole life. I just didn't know Him. This site is the story of how He waited for me — and what He's doing with me now.
