A Passionate Heart For The Ways Of Jesus
Today is October 1st. In Michigan, that means leaves have begun to turn from green to red, yellow, orange (and brown). The weather is (mostly) chilling down after a hot Summer. The days are growing a bit shorter, the nights a bit longer. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I love Autumn [...]
Because of my past, there are questions people tend to ask me. I’m sure you can guess the one I’m addressing today. Should Christians ghost hunt? My answer should be obvious. No. Christians have no business poking about dark homes or reportedly haunted locations trying to make contact with “the spirit world” (whether it’s out [...]
I’ve been seeing a particular question which goes something along this line: “What does the Bible say about ghost hunting?” It’s not a surprise Christians are wondering about ghost hunting. Just consider the popularity of ghost hunting programs on television. Since Ghost Hunters premiered in 2004, interest in haunt activity, belief in ghosts, and people [...]
There is an animated film which is premiering this Friday called ParaNorman. When the trailer for this movie first appeared, I confess the title gave me pause. The play on words with paranormal gave me (obvious) reason for concern. What I saw of the brief synopsis clip was the world imperiled by zombies (which is [...]
“Check that place out. I bet ‘D’ would go nuts over it”. My husband and I were on a long road trip. There had been a lull in our conversation so I was enjoying the view out my window and noticed a historic looking cemetery. I immediately thought of my friend who still leads the [...]
Two years ago, someone asked me to define necromancy. What is it? How does it differ from being a medium or is there no difference? Confession time. I totally forgot about this question until a few weeks ago. So, I thought today would be a good day to make good on that promise to offer [...]
“Did you know there’s another new TV show about a medium?” my husband asked as he looked at me over the top of his laptop expectantly. “Yes, I know about it. How many paranormal programs do you think there are now?” I wondered. “Last time we checked there were 27 on ghosts alone”. By the [...]
Ghost hunting can be traced back to the spiritualist era of the mid-1800′s with the Ghost Club of London and the Society for Psychical Research. In both instances, members of the groups were interested in finding proof of the paranormal. Over the years, ghost hunters and paranormal researchers have created ways to collect evidence of [...]
In the past two years, since I began sharing my story I’ve noticed something—specifically among Christians. Some know exactly what I’m talking about when it comes to the paranormal fascination in our present culture. They hear what their friends are saying. They know Christians who are visiting mediums. They are aware of the proliferation of ghost hunting/medium/psychic [...]
Today is Halloween. Child voices will fill the early evening with cries of “trick-or-treat”! Adults dressed in costume will attend parties or find some kind of entertainment with friends for the evening. Ghost Hunters will seek to find evidence of the paranormal. Futures will be sought through tarot or palm readings. And many people will pull [...]
