In 1995, Pastor Davis began his lifelong endeavor of “Turning Hearts toward God,” through Turning Hearts Ministries, Inc and Dads of Faith. These organizations impact communities through father/child bonding, evangelism, discipleship, music, drama, technology, and community development.
Pastor Davis’s workbook has been presented in several translations: Czech, English, Luhya, Portuguese, Spanish, Swahili, French, and Hindi. This book is an evangelism and discipleship training tool that has been utilized in and throughout the United States, Belize, Brazil, and Czech Republic. He is also the author of “Sharing the Gospel: Good News on the Go”. Pastor Davis is the father of two daughters, Megan and Macey. He proudly shares the ministries’ responsibilities with his wife, Carolyn, whose musical gifts keep the youth and music ministries afloat.
Dr. Matthew A. Davis has been led by God to build a sanctuary that reminds everyone of God’s saving grace. He praises God and gives Him all the glory in allowing Him to build a sanctuary in the shape of a cross. Since January of 2008, Pastor Davis has delivered messages within the cross. As airplanes, helicopters, and drones fly over the building, they notice the shape of the
cross and individuals are reminded of God’s amazing grace and how Jesus gave His life to redeem the fallen world. Thus, the membership of the New Beginning Church has adopted the slogan: "Come to the Cross and Experience a New Beginning”. At the New Beginning Church, they are, “Reaching Souls by Lifting Jesus” (John 12:32).
