About Me
My name is Alison and I live in Texas. I have a wonderful husband of 5 years this May 2008 named Bradley. We cannot have children (we have had 5 miscarriages) so we have kitties. I am a Christian and I am very involved in my community. In my spare time, I like to write (poems, stories, etc) and study biblical prophecy. I love older movies (between 1940’s through 1960’s) and I am a HUGE Sandra Dee fan. I like crooner music (though I don’t have any ‘crooner songs’ listed on my fav music page) and I enjoy going to amusement parks. I am looking forward to sharing my thoughts on many topics and seeing what everyone in this community is interested in. You can find out more about my favorite things in the tabs above. Navigate around and let me know what you think. This site is dedicated to my deep and random thoughts on ’somethings’ with a little bit of the ‘nothings’ in this world.
My husband and I have worked, volunteered, with a ministry called Understand The Times for almost 4 years. Some of you may have heard of Roger Oakland, he is the head of that ministry. For anyone interested, they have some really great materials (ie: books, cd’s, videos, etc.) for understanding the truth of some controversial topics as well as being able to witness to others regarding those topics.
Most of our (Bradley and mine) ministry efforts have been on-line through emails, forums, e-newsletters, etc. though we do try to witness and minister to others in person.
Bradley and I have gotten involved in our city government on a small level to try and keep a moral standard in our community, however, as politics go… that is not always obtainable by a minority… but we try. In this, being the end days, we can only expect what the Bible tells us it will be like before Christ returns for His Church, but we pray and follow through the best that we can until that day comes.

Love your life emphasis. Thanks for sharing. We are not having luck with having kids and are currently considering adoption and/or fostering.
Take care.

Thank you for your comment. I am sorry to hear that about not being able to have children. It can be rough at times. I wish you well in which ever direction you go. It takes a very strong couple to embark in the act of fostering. To love them as a parent but not really have complete authority as a parent and risking them leaving to go where you are not sure they may be safe (back to their original parent(s)). Foster parents are so needed, but I think that many look at it as a way to make a check, sadly enough… there truly needs to be a lot more caring parents out there to foster and if you are a couple who can remain strong in that avenue, you truly are a blessing!
Adoption is a wonderful thing. We have not pursued this option fully as of yet do to our finances, however, we are launching a new company and if the Lord wills, we will be able to set aside enough money to properly care for a child and give them everything they would need comfortably.
Again, I wish you the very best on your journey ahead.
God Bless!

Hi Alison:
Just left you a Tweet. Wanted to leave you a longer message that I could thru Twitter. You and your husband may enjoy looking at a ministry that can be found online at biblescholars.org. Lots of stuff on understanding the scriptures from the Jewish / Hebrew perspective. It helps since Christ was also a Rabbi. Understanding the Hebrew background and the Jewishness (not even sure that’s a word) of Jesus adds significant insight to the scriptures. Thought you might enjoy the site. Looking forward to your Tweets. Take care and God bless you and yours…dave clifton

Hi Dave, Thank you for commenting and adding me on Twitter! I appreciate the link you have shared and I will be sure to check it out. You are so correct about understanding the Jewish background/history of the scriptures because it is the key to the door, which is Jesus. Thank you again for the link and your kind comment! Looking forward to tweeting with you
