My name is Matt and this is my blog.

I'm designing a vocational program for adults with developmental disabilities at a non-profit in Plano and my wife teaches at a daycare in Las Colinas.

I enjoy reading, writing, and thinking.
I run. A lot. Like Forrest, only I shave.
I like bacon, coffee, and peanut butter.
I love Jesus, His Church and my wife.

  1.   Good morning, and in case I don’t see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night. I hope your week has started off well, but in case it hasn’t there’s a hymn coming straight to your earholes at 8 AM (CST). It’s based on verses 17 & 18 of Psalm 10 and originally written by Edward Osler in 1836. Few, but very powerful words…simply reading them is encouraging to me. I hope that hearing them in song will be as well. It’s been a little over a week since I last popped in on the social media world. In that time, we’ve laid down 4 final cuts to songs for the first Hymnbook CD due out in September. I’m stoked to see these come together and how much better the quality is by moving up from the iPhone headphones to record to the TASCAM US-144mkII, an actual microphone and some studio headphones to mix. Simple upgrades that were made for the benefit of your earholes in this process. I’m still no Matthew Smith, Caedmon’s Call, or this guy…and that’s not even the goal, but I’m hoping you’re getting as excited as me to see these sings leak out into the atmosphere and do their part at ramping up global warming. Kidding of course. Maybe. So check the twitter feeds for @mhenslee or @myhymnbook at 8AM, CST to listen to Psalm Ten…and please keep praying as I finish recording the final cuts so we can start raising some funds for some great church plants, ministries and missionaries. Other updates… I’ll be opening for Diamond Rio on October 23rd in Vidalia, LA Leading some of the hymns for the BMA of Arkansas in November To blessed to be congested. Well… Matt PS: Have you heard of my good buddy, Kevin Sanders? If not, he’s put his new demo out on NoiseTrade and I implorest thou to hearest it: click here.
