About our speaker

Matt Tyner photoMatthew Tyner is a motivational speaker, sports coach, and author who values faith, character, perseverance, and empowerment. As the Head Coach of Towson University’s Baseball program and a former minor league baseball player in the Baltimore Orioles system, he brings an uncanny perspective on sports and faith. Matthew’s commitment, hard work, and determination to get to the playing field of baseball as his ticket out led him down paths of destruction and eventual redemption in baseball and his faith. 

As a lifelong player and coach, he has spent countless hours on the field. He finds the field his second home surrounded by teammates, coaches, and players. He shares his battlefield-tested observations and experiences to help people and organizations garner the best from those struggling to reach their untapped potential. Matthew teaches that coaching is as much about living your best version of yourself as it is playing the game.

Matthew has established a reputation for kindness and an attitude of excellence and sportsmanship. He has inspired coaches and players around the US to be well-rounded citizens on and off the field. He is a loving family man who exhibits humility, kindness, and generosity. He is more than a coach but a leader who teaches, develops, inspires, and mentors hundreds of young men and women. He has played for the University of Miami and the Baltimore Orioles and coached at Towson University, The University of Richmond, Bellarmine University, and Butler University.

He learned the value of hard work and commitment at an early age growing up in Decatur, IL. He was the oldest of three children born to a broken family and endured a parent struggling with substance abuse. His

hard work and dedication to live substance-free saved not only his life but the life of his family. Matthew is the father of two grown children and 3 beautiful grandchildren, He was lovingly married to his late wife Laura for 29 years before she succumbed to cancer in 2020.

“Love As A Management Practice” – New Series

CBMC has developed a new discussion guide for Connect3 teams, based on the book, “Love As A Management Practice” by John Johnson, that applies the principles of 1 Corinthians 13 to our daily work life. This new group study is now available on CBMC Advance (free with login). This will equip you to serve others with strength and compassion!

A laywer, seeking to test Jesus, asked: “Teacher, which command in the law is the greatest? ” He said to him, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important command. The second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets depend on these two commands.” Matthew 22:35-40 (CSB).

John Johnson writes: “Clearly, God considers our love – for Himself and for one another– of great importance. Not one of these passages suggests, “except in the marketplace,” so we have every reason to believe that love – in the biblical understanding of the word – is just as important where we work as anywhere else.” In this study on the principles of 1 Corinthians 13, we will learn from God’s word how love works and why it works in a workplace context.

CBMC Montgomery County meetings are held on Tuesday mornings at the Village Green Restaurant, 120 N Frederick Ave, Gaithersburg, from 6:45-8:00 am.
