Doctor Who news…spoilerish…
Say it isn’t true!!!! Oh, the anguish; Tennant steps down as Doctor Who. Well…at least he’ll be around through all the Doctor Who specials in 2009. On a positive note, perhaps this means the human-Doctor and Rose will make a reappearance at some point in the series? Ten’s been my favorite Doctor so far, and [...]

Feedback: The Ark of the Covenant; a type of Mary?
This post is in answer to a reader’s comment on Catholic verses? Part 10. The claims actually come from here: A Biblical Defense of Mary. The case is put forward that the Ark of the Covenant is a type, or foreshadowing, or symbol, of Mary.

See…lolcat frets not:
Ephesians 3:11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: 12 In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. 13 Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
14 For this cause I bow my [...]

Fret not…
My husband, The ‘Shrink, seems to think this is a timely message, and so do I. The stock market thinks it’s a roller coaster, and I personally know many fellow believers that are under attack, physically, mentally, spiritually, financially, etc… Here’s a link to a write-up of a sermon that Doc Scott, and Melissa Scott [...]
