These are some pictures from our drive through the highlands. When you see the pictures, keep in mind that they are mostly taken from a moving car through closed windows! It is amazing how beautiful it is out here.

Well lets see, these days it is a bit random. I am listening to a lot of Explosions in the Sky - who are awesome. I continually find myself listening to Sigur Ros as well. I have also been listening to the Cold War Kids, to get a little bit of Southern California back in me, and I also have enjoyed listening to Dustin Kensrue's solo stuff.
There are many books that I have loved reading, but because this is the "books" section, I figured I should put mine here. If you like it, please add it to your page!

One of the most interesting things of living in another country that speaks the same language (well virtually the same) as you do, is that you can see how differently we use that language. It makes me think of how absurd some of our signs and sayings are - but just so you can get a feel for our life in Scotland, here are the signs we see and often don't understand. Just remember, Do not foul your dog, or let him foul, I'm not sure.

So I figured I should actually have something in the "about me" section. I guess I should first say what I "do", since that is how we categorize each other - I am a writer - my book comes out in April; I have co-founded and help run a website - which is www.metamorpha.com, which is NOW LIVE!!! and we are very excited about it. I live in Aberdeen Scotland, where I am at King's College of Aberdeen University working on my Ph.D in theology. Here is King's College, and is where I can usually be found. If you see the arrow on one of the slides that is where my office is:

This is Kings College, and it was built in 1495. While I am here I will be studying theology, with a focus on the work of Karl Barth and Jonathan Edwards, with a focus on the Christian life. It should be interesting because they are very different thinkers, but yet both were pastoral, vastly prolific, and each are arguably the most important thinkers of their day. I am daily reminded of how little I know, how much I have to learn, and how blessed I am to have the chance to sit at the feet of two intellectual and spiritual giants of theology. I have no doubt that it will be an incredibly growing experience.
After that I hope to teach in a college or graduate level setting, but we'll see. Other than that, I am married and absolutely love marriage. We are constantly laughing, and she has no problem being my sugar-momma as I do a variety of things that aren't extremely lucrative. Kelli just finished her doctorate in Physical Therapy, and she will hopefully be doing that when we are in Scotland. Well, that is about it for now.
我想認識： Instead of this category, I would like to let you know what sites I tend to frequent, other than myspace of course:
1). Metamorpha.com - which is the site that I and my friend Jamin put up to help engage in the discussion of Christian spirituality.
2). My family tends to write and put up websites (I'm not sure why that is), but my Father's site is www.leestrobel.com, and my sisters site is www.alisonstrobel.com.
3). www.christianaudio.com - This is a great site. Friends of mine have put this up to help people on the go get great books to listen to on their I-Pod or in their car - check it out!
4). Wordpress.com. I am a part of a group blogging effort to talk about Christian theology in a way that is inviting, informed and faithful. Check it out at: theologyforum.wordpresss.com.
Hey Kyle ... just updating you. Today was actually a pretty good day. At least the best I've felt in awhile. Being thankful for a brief taste of normality again. Thanks for your prayers and care.
Wow ... I'm sick too man. HAD to work because we have no coverage. Dizzy. Weak. Throat's been bad for at least a week. Exhausted. Ok ... no more complaining for me. :) I'll be keeping you in prayer my brother.
Hey Kyle ... sorry I haven't sent that email yet ... life continues to be interesting. Would love to talk to you. Give me a call when you get a chance. Much love to you, my brother.
Hey, it's little Matheney. Just wanted to let you know I just got your book and am really looking forward to it because I have heard nothing but great things about it. Actually just to let you know a buddy of mine up here in the Chicago area that's a youth pastor is really excited about your book and is doing an entire youth retreat on it. Hope that brings you a little encouragement. Little Matheney
Hey Kyle, thanks for the prayers today. Turned out to be a good birthday. God even blessed with 60+ degree weather here in NE Ohio! I had a wonderful time of solitude and silence to begin my day. I'll tell you about it later.
Hope you're feeling better. I messaged you my number.
HEy bro..how was your holidays..I got my dad your dad's new book for Christmas for one of his gifts..He says its awesome..i will read it when he's done..
In reading your book(with study guide) for three days I have had more epiphanies than I have ever had in my entire time trying to read the bible by myself. THANK YOU!! : ) : )
Hey Kyle ... sorry it's been awhile since we last talked. My life just kinda turned upside down a couple weeks before Thanksgiving and I'm still feeling it. I'll update you soon, but please keep me in prayer. Love to talk to you now that you're in the states. I think you have my number. Read Philippians 1:19 with me in mind ...
