Since joining Pillar Media in 2020, Stockman has guided programming initiatives that strengthened the organization’s mission of encouraging people into a growing relationship with Jesus through media.
“Matt’s leadership and expertise have made a lasting impact on our organization,” Executive Director Art Garza said. “While we never enjoy losing great talent, we’ve long known this entrepreneurial path was something he felt called toward. We’re grateful for his contributions and excited for his new consulting venture. Matt will always be part of our family, and we know this won’t be the last chapter we share together.”

I believe God has opened the door for this next chapter, and I look forward to using my experience and gifts to help other organizations make an impact for the Kingdom.”
