Matthew is a theologian, though he tends to think more like a psychologist than what his title might suggest. He frequently seeks to integrate the two disciplines in ways that make each personal, practical, and relational.

He obtained his Ph.D. from the Toronto School of Theology, looking at Dallas Willard's theology of emotion and using neurobiology as a lens for critiquing and expanding on Willard's spiritual dynamics. Along the way, he also dabbles in physics, behavioral economics, and educational theory. He has taught in various fields including mathematics and spirituality.

Matthew currently serves on the advisory council for Grafted Life Ministries, which seeks to help the Evangelical church understand spiritual formation in its own la

I'm obviously not the audience for this book. It should have been much more clearly tagged YA, for one thing, though that was only part of my struggle with it. You are welcome to disagree with my review - this is why I'm starting off my saying I'm no ...more

The first half dragged. The main character just wasn't interesting enough, which made the 1st person perspective rough.

Revesk I don't mind that Scalzi's work may be "mind-candy, mostly." As you can see by my reading list, I do read a lot of mind-candy. Thanks, I'll try Redshirts as well!


Matthew Green Honestly, that kind of surprises me. I see Scalzi as mind-candy, mostly. His Old Man's War series is enjoyable, but I don't see a lot of depth or substance to it. I guess I figured you'd want a little more weight to your reading.

But if you've any love for Star Trek, his Redshirts novel is a fun journey.


Revesk Thanks for introducing me to John Scalzi's work -- I'm really enjoying it.
