Random Thoughts from these past few weeks

Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

Eh, this was all written via my iPhone and transferred over to wordpress, forgive any typos/grammatical errors/punctuation errors. I didn’t check for them (not that I ever really do). I’ve been away for a while; I find myself distracted often by books, music.  These two distractions I don’t mind so much… they’re productive and I [...]

Project 365

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Beginning tomorrow, I’m going to launch a bit of a side project. This next year should be an interesting one for me, and I want to document it, so I’ll be taking part in something called “project 365.” Each day of the year I’ll be taking a photo and putting it online, keeping track of [...]

themattscott 3.0

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

I’m back. I think the time off was much needed and incredibly beneficial. I think you’ll find a (not so) subtle difference in the content, which will begin tomorrow. I’ve changed in many ways, yet still remain connected and interested in the emergent expression of faith I was a part of before my world blew [...]

What then do I write?

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

I’ve always written about that which was currently going on in my life. It’s easy to tap into that source and come up with plenty  to talk about, it got me through my first two years of blogging, but now… now I’m stuck. What if what’s going on in my life isn’t something that needs [...]

A Logical Problem

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Ok, I’m taking a class in symbolic logic this semester. It’s been an interesting class thus far, I’ve found out several interesting life truths, namely that if you throw out a little Latin in the first couple sessions, you get called on for answers a lot more. I’ve also learned that my natural inclination towards [...]

Questions for emergent friends in ministry

Monday, August 10th, 2009

Interestingly enough, I’m tempted to put in an application for an associate youth ministry job in the area. Two months ago I wouldn’t have given this a second thought and moved on with my life, but with some recent reinforcement from various people as to some various abilities that would be an asset in a [...]

Life updates

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

Well, I haven’t been around much lately. This summer I took a nice size course load to try to get my college “career” jump started again. I don’t think I’ve ever gone into the details of my past failures here (on the blog) so a quick summary is probably in order. Back in my junior [...]

Why I don’t go to “church”.

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

To make this completely straightforward, I actually “go” to a “church” nearly every Sunday, and play guitar (and occasionally sing…) for a Fourth and Fifth grade section of the childrens ministry. I do not, however, attend church services. The last time I did, it was on a whim after we got done playing for the [...]

apologies

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Sorry I’ve been out for the past week, been a little hectic at themattandbeckyscott household, both of us started our summer semester classes. On top of that, this was the final week of school for our county school system, which makes my job rather insane, so I had very little free time to work with. [...]

I’m Alive!

Monday, May 11th, 2009

My apologies for having been out for the past week. For those of you that don’t follow me on Twitter, I was in the hospital for a few days due to a severe (antibiotic resistant) strain of Staph. My wife (dutifully) updated my twitter account with my status, and I’m touched by the well wishes [...]
