For those of you who know me or follow me, you know that I already struggle with maintaining my "real" blog. So why another? And for those of you who are wondering if I've gone off the deep end of fandom and are concerned for my soul, don't worry: I've not *completely lost my mind. It's just that after watching (and re-watching) 9 seasons + of the longest running science-fiction television series in history, I found myself making connections, imagining the unimaginable, and thinking outside the box (and not just the blue one that's bigger on the inside). My omniscient and omnipresent God somehow seemed bigger when I realized the depth of space and the unfathomable concept of time. My LORD - who created the entire universe - grew inconceivably loving for his actions in saving humanity - aka dust - through his death and resurrection! The difficult to perceive or imagine in the Word - most of Revelation and bits of Daniel & Ezekiel for example - became that much easier to grasp having seen Oods, Reapers, Silents, & a Racnoss.
My hopes and purpose for this journey of a blog are not to make corny analogies or blasphemous comparisons. I don't want you the reader to become a bigger fan of the show, but I want you to become a bigger fan of my God! It isn't possible to make too much of Him. It isn't possible to over exclaim His greatness. So, I hope, as I systematically work my way (slowly no doubt) through the many available episodes of Doctor Who, that a) I'll make sense, b) I'll challenge you to think bigger, c) I'll change the way you watch television shows for the rest of your life, and most importantly d) I'll glorify my God!
However, don't look for sermons (just ask my youth group about those 2 attempts...), or poetically and perfectly composed epics; you'll more than likely be finding raw responses, transparent thoughts, and incomplete imaginings. But now that you know... You won't be disappointed! :) Not to say some of my points won't preach! :) Okay, well, Allons-y!
