To everyone dearest to me,
Thank you for stopping by to read this post. I hope you will return many a time hereafter.
I have always (read: since I started reading them last year) wanted to start a blog. And, if you have yet to be informed, blog is short for 'weblog,' an online journal that, at least in this case, will be more personal than formal or, perish the thought, political (yikes!). For the longest time this blog has actually existed, however I have failed to keep it up, by reason of apathy, and also for not having a good reason to do so.
But last year as I was attending Indiana Wesleyan University and simultaneously attending a different church, it felt strange to be so separated from the spiritual body that for so long had been my home church: Kalamazoo Wesleyan, newly named Lighthouse Community Church: a Wesleyan Ministry. After all, I am receiving a scholarship from them, and they are my home church, in my home district, in which I will be given ministerial student standing. So in an attempt to stay better connected with the folks at home, it seemed appropriate to keep an online journal, especially for those whom I will not be calling on the phone every week.
I will try not to limit myself to specific topics of discussion, and you may find some posts to be more or less formal, occasional, personal or thought provoking. I hope this will make the blog more and not less interesting, and will encourage you to return and not to flee.
I will move to Marion on Monday, August 29. Until then I have 33 more hours of work at McDonald's, and a week to pack and get psyched, man, get psyched for school. That won't be too hard. I am already too excited to express it in words.
Blessings still from Kalamazoo,
Scott H.
