007MattTheisen

From the firehouse to the fields, from tradition to transformation — this is the powerful story of Matt Theisen.Matt spent nearly four decades serving the City of Monticello — 36 years on the fire department and 39 with the city — building not only his community but a legacy of service, integrity, and quiet strength. But behind the badge and the uniform was a man carrying a much deeper story — one of faith, identity, and freedom.In this heartfelt conversation, Matt opens up for the first time about growing up as a Jehovah’s Witness, the strict rules that shaped his youth, and the courage it took to walk away in search of a real relationship with Jesus Christ. From childhood memories of missed holidays and forbidden sports to moments of danger and purpose in public service, Matt shares how God worked through every season of his life to reveal truth, grace, and freedom.This episode is a testimony to perseverance, redemption, and the quiet power of living out your faith in everyday life.In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
