About the ministry
Teacher Matthew Lee Ministries is Christ’s Heartbeat’s teaching daughter ministry, run by our founder Matthew Lee.
This ministry precedes the founding of CHMI and was founded in September 2016 when Matthew – led by the Spirit of the Lord – began his YouTube channel. Since its inception, there have been almost 1000 encouraging messages posted on the YouTube channel.
In July 2020, during the covid-19 pandemic, the Lord placed it on Matthew’s heart to begin a daily devotional video series, to encourage people during the challenging times. God gave him the title “From heaven at seven” for the series. From 2020-2022 Matthew Produced two full seasons of the series, totaling over 700 videos, which can be found on the Teacher Matthew Lee Facebook page and YouTube channel. After successfully completing two seasons of From Heaven at Seven, He began a weekly devotional series called the “Weekly Word of Encouragement “, which completed its second season in mid 2025.
However, the ministry has also expanded to include a variety of additional facets. CHMI have developed their own unique Soul Winning Workshop, called “Code RED” where they train up entire congregations in living a lifestyle of evangelism and how to be a more effective witness to those around us.
Teacher Matthew also works in partnership with Christian Family Church International. Since 2022 Matthew has been serving alongside their missions department to train and equip the CFCI pastors and congregations across the continent of Africa.
Matthew also preaches at various churches around the world, teaches pastors and leaders crucial church growth principles, and lectures some of the foundational courses and the 1st-3rd year subjects at various CFCI Bible College campuses.
In 2025 Matthew helped compile, establish and launch CFCI’s Leadership academy, under the guidance of his mentor – Dr Andre Wilmans. To date he continues his work for the Leadership Academy, training and equipping trainers. These trainers then reteach the Leadership Academy content to their congregations, in some of the most remote and unreached parts of the world. More on this to follow soon – keep an eye on our social media accounts…

Kenya August 2025 update - 1 of 3
.
From the 2nd to the 9th of August, I had the privilege of travelling across south-west Kenya, to conduct a spin-off of the Grow Leader conference, that we titled "Grow Together". This was an intense trip, as we conducted 7 conferences in 8 days, and travelled around 1000km between the different locations...
.
After landing in Nairobi late in the evening on Friday the 1st, we kicked off our first conference at Kayole CFCI.
.
On Sunday the 3rd, we woke up early to drive from Nairobi to Bomet, through the great rift valley and the Masai Mara, to have an afternoon conference at Simbi CFCI.
.
On Monday the 4th, we woke up to drive to the next county, Nyamira, where we had our conference at Mobamba CFCI. After the conference, we drove another 3 hours to Migori County.
.
On Tuesday the 5th, we had our next conference at Sori CFCI, in their new church building, after their previous one washed away in the floods last year. The congregation blessed bishop John and I with materials etc at the end of the service. We spent the evening enjoying the beautiful scenery of the sun setting over Lake Victoria.
.
On Wednesday the 6th, we began the long journey from Migori to Busia, via Kisumu. After arriving at the hotel in Busia, Bishop John and I enjoyed a refreshing swimmer in their pool.
.
On Thursday the 7th, we had our 5th conference at Funyula CFCI. After the meeting, we headed through to Bungoma County, in preparation for our next meeting.
.
On Friday the 8th, we had our 6th conference at Kimabole CFCI, under some tents, as the church was too small to handle the number of attendees from Bungoma County. After the meeting, we proceeded on to Kitale.
.
On Saturday the 9th, we had our 7th and final Grow Together conference, at Nabiswa CFCI in Trans-Nzoia County, thus concluding this first leg of the missions trip.
.
All conferences, at each location, were well attended by the various pastors and leaders from the CFCI churches in the region. We equipped them with knowledge and resources, which I firmly believe will bring about church growth in each church, as they apply the principles we taught them during the meetings...
