So Christian Theology, what a class. From the 70+ page readings that are filled with big words from the 1800's to the outrageous comments that a certain person makes in the class, it is all interesting. Maybe I should have stuck with Fiction and Film? Can you even believe I dropped a class that I was taking with Kelsey Boone? We all make mistakes. So all of this confusing readings and discussions and reflection papers have led up to this, a project on pop culture and how it relates to the themes in our class.
So I think to myself... what a wonderful world...
No, I thought to myself I could do U2. But, I decided to go the more country route for a change. I went with Johnny Cash. He is the man if you did not know. An over arching theme I will be discussing is his redemption that he perfectly portrayed in his music of his later years. I think what got me hooked on him was the movie, Walk the Line. His passion for music and the chase for June Carter was memorable. The man in black can sing.
On to other events.
Last Thursday was the Mat Kearney concert. The man from Oregon did not disappoint what so ever. The dude played guitar on the piano out on the quad. It was sweet. It was also nice to snack on his left over food. He likes the strangest tea though. It was spicy... So that was all good.
Now, as the semester is about to be sealed shut we have one more Harry's this Thursday.
We have The Civil Wars coming to town. This is huge. Ever since we nailed the date down some time ago they have grown more and more in the music galaxy. We are very lucky. This is crazy, but it is Monday and we already have over 200 people saying they are going to the show on FaceBook. I am not really sure how we are going to fit every one in there but no one will be disappointed. The show will happen no matter what. Bring on the whole state of Alabama. This will be huge for Harry's as well. Harry's has been a real blessing for me this semester and I will not take it lightly. It has grown more than we could have ever imagined and hopes for next semester are massive as well.
Goodness life is kind. Kelsey still puts up with me. I'm making good grades. I have food and a [uncomfortable] bed to sleep on.
Before I cut this one off I must say something about Secret Church at Brook Hills.
It was phenomenal. Frugal living is so biblical. So do it.
Faith, Hope, and LOVE.
Summer is next week.
Matt
