When doing some research for a post on my Kitchen Kop blog I came across this video. See if it makes you cry, too. Has anything like this ever happened to you? I was going to say that I wish we could write those kind of checks or help someone in huge ways like that…but […]
It wasn’t until I was in my 20’s and converted to the Catholic faith (I’ll tell you more about that someday) that I even heard the word, “Novena”. There’s nothing mysterious about it, though, it’s just a nine-day prayer.

Let’s face it. There are some neat Christians and some odd Christians. Just like any other group of people in the world. And to one, someone could be in the “neat” category, and for another they might be in the “odd” category. These are the things that make the world go ’round. (How boring would […]
I received this via email and it really made me think… SATAN’S MEETING: (Read even if you’re busy) Satan called a worldwide convention of demons.
