“He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?”
— Malachi 6:8
Matthew J. Cordes
With 18 years of experience as an Enrolled Agent authorized to practice before the IRS, my expertise lies in tax accounting for clergy as well as small business clients, particularly in the service-based industry. My professional philosophy is to leverage financial expertise to support personal and business aspirations, prioritizing values like faith, family, and financial independence. This approach is not just about numbers; it's about enabling our clients to use their finances as a tool to achieve greater freedom and fulfillment in their lives and allow them to follow their true calling.
I currently am a full time tax preparer with another firm, and this is my passion project and ministry. I have a desire to assist clergy in their complex tax needs.
Away from the office, I am happily married to my wife Christan for over 20 years and a father to three wonderful children, Haddon, Evelyn, and Lilian. My passions include BBQ, active involvement in my church, and spending time with my family. These personal commitments reflect my ultimate professional goal: assisting my clients to spend less time entangled in taxes and more time enjoying what truly matters with their loved ones, a balance I cherish and strive for in my own life.
