Matt Olson is the former president of Northland International University. Before coming to Northland in 2002, he pastored Tri-City Baptist Church in Westminster, Colorado, a church he planted “from scratch” by God’s grace in the fall of 1981. Since that time, Tri-City has assisted in planting at least a dozen other churches in the West. Dr. Olson received his BA and MA degrees from Bob Jones University and later completed his doctoral work at Northland International University. His passion is for local church ministry and for the full scope of the Great Commission. Along with church planting and missions, he has developed a special interest in helping young people as they prepare for ministry. Dr. Olson and his wife, Diane, have three children and three grandchildren.
