About

Scot, Stephanie, Mariah, and Madison in Sydney

Welcome to resonate! Here we explore  life and spirituality. You will find articles, links, community, and nonsense. Join in the conversation and be a part of the resonance.

My name is Scot Longyear. I am a husband, father, musician, Pastor, worship leader, preacher, and full-time schmo.

I have been married to Stephanie since I was 20 years old. Together, we have 2 daughters and a dog. We are an average family living the above average life, leading a church, spending less than we make and living way beyond our means.

I am on staff at Maryland Community Church where I serve as the Sr Associate Pastor, a fancy titled which, when translated, means “he who goes to many meetings.”  Steph is a stay- at-home Mom and Princess of all things travel. Check out our travel blog, Trekeo, for a look inside the life of a budget traveler.

I am a follower of Jesus and live in community with a bunch of like-minded folks whose primary desire is to serve the cause of Christ. With this community of people we live, laugh, fight, serve, and love.

Over the course of time I have had the opportunity to write and record CD’s, open for some fine folks in Christian music, and have been able to travel to speak and lead worship.  Some highlights include traveling to Spain with the Billy Graham Association as well as teaching and leading worship in Moscow. I live a crazy life on this journey and wouldn’t trade it for anything.

My hope is that through this blog some of the things here may resonate with you so deeply that it causes you to resonate with the Creator.

Welcome to the journey.
