I have either sent you a message through facebook, or you have received an e-mail from me recently. Now you are probably wondering, why does Matt have a blog and why did he let me know? Well the reason I am starting this blog is to keep people up-to-date with what is going on in my life. Since the tornado, I have felt bad that I have not stayed in touch with many different people. I did reply to everyone who either text me, called me, facebooked me, or e-mailed me. But I wish that I had more time so that I could have let you know what is going on now. So if I have not gotten in touch with you anymore, I am truly sorry. However, I really do want you to know how much I am thankful for all of your prayers during these last 2 months.
So why start a blog? Well other than what I stated above, there are a few more reasons:
1) I want to have a place where I can weekly update people on what is going on in my life. This will be a place where I can let you know how life is going and also what God is doing.
2) Also about once a week, I want to review books. I find myself always recommending books to people. So this will be a place where I can review a book I have either recently read, or one that is one of my favorites. I will be posting one soon about Dead Heat.
3) My final reason is so that I can share my thoughts on sometimes random, and sometimes pressing topics or issues I am facing. If there is something in the news or from class that interests me, I may post about it on here.
I will do my best to keep this updated. Like I said, I find that I am bad about not e-mailing people. So hopefully through this, I can keep it updated, and you will know what is going on. Now I will continue to try to e-mail people (if I have promised to do so), but I will probably be just as bad at it as I have been. But if you ever need anything you can always text, e-mail, facebook, or call me.
Well I guess that about wraps it up for my first post. I know that I did not let you know much about what is going on, but that would make this post really long. So within the week, I will give you an update from Union University and my life. I will also be telling you what I think of Joel Rosenberg's latest novel, Dead Heat.
Until then, I hope everything goes well with everyone,
Matt
