Matt Beham

Matt was born in London, England, to American parents and lived his growing up years between England, Scotland, Louisiana and Houston.

Matt was converted to saving faith in Jesus as a freshman after a friend invited him to a church youth group. That experience planted the seeds for Matt’s future passion to see others come to Christ through the work of the local church.

Matt, whose young years overseas were spent playing soccer in every available street and park of Scotland and England, was recruited to play college soccer for Trinity University in San Antonio. He began attending Redeemer in 2005 and quickly made it his church home. He was part of the early chapter of Reformed University Fellowship at Trinity and began testing out a call to ministry by volunteering with the youth program at RPC.

During his college years, Matt reconnected with Haley, a childhood friend he had known in Houston who was then attending Texas A&M University. They started dating when they both returned to Houston for the summer. Matt and Haley were married in 2008, the same year he was hired as RPC Youth Intern. Matt was later named Director of Youth Ministry and began pursuing his Master’s of Divinity from Redeemer Seminary in Austin.

Matt was ordained in 2016 as Assistant Pastor of Youth Ministries, and in 2021 he was called as RPC Associate Pastor of Spiritual Formation, taking on leadership of Redeemer’s spiritual formation programs for youth, children and adults. He now serves as Co-lead Pastor of Redeemer, sharing preaching and pastoral responsibilities with RPC Lead Pastor Paul Hahn.

Matt and Haley have two children, Elliotte, 7; and Graham, 4.
