Hi! My name is Matt Alexander and I am very excited to be serving as the Production Director at NewSpring Charleston! I have lived in Anderson, SC all of my life. My younger brother and I were raised in a traditional Baptist church. Yes, we were "drug" to church every Sunday! I started playing drums at the age of 7, beginning my love for music. In high school I was a member of the drum line in the marching band and played in a garage band called "Silkworm". (I didn't choose the name)
At Anderson University, I majored in Human Resources but spent most of my time playing drums in a band called "Six and Twenty" doing gigs for youth rallies and campus ministries. You might recognize the name of our lead guitarist - Steve Barlow(Our new worship leader!!). Steve and I were band-mates for 2 years and roommates for 4 years! In 2000, I joined NewSpring Church and have volunteered there ever since!
In 2003, I married my lovely wife Sara. We actually met at a NewSpring Bible study! We have three children, Lucas age 5, Ava age 2, and Wyatt is 4 months old. I have an obsession with flashlights, tools and knives. I am a techy,
gadgety kind of guy. (who isn't?) I enjoy trying to play golf... but pretty terrible at it. I love to play racquetball, so
let me know if you play! I love a good challenge! I also love a pick up game of Ultimate Frisbee!
We are so excited to be starting a new life here in Charleston! We know that God has great things in store for NewSpring Charleston! Sara and I both are passionate about what God is doing in our church! We have experienced true life change over the past 10 years through Perry's teachings and Home Groups! I can't wait to meet each of you and begin seeing life change happen here!
