Holy Ashes, Batman

I posted earlier today the footage from our visit to Pompeii while we were in Italy. You can view it at the home page (www.allenhuntshow.com)

Pompeii fascinates me. The first century town was buried under 10 feet of volcanic ash when Mt. Vesuvius blew its top. The huge layer of ash preserved much of what life was like in the first century Roman world. Bodies were of humans and animals were found centuries later. Walking the streets of Pompeii, which is still today not entirely excavated, generates an eerie sensation. Almost like you walked into the first century but sense that something is horribly wrong. The looming size of Mt. Vesuvius in front of you reminds you just HOW wrong! Wow!

We walked through first century shops, homes, and cafes. We toured the Forum where much of the official town business and politics occurred. And we saw the stunning amphitheater. A truly special experience.

Those people who died in Pompeii, where did their souls go. Heaven? Hell? Purgatory? Some other unspecified place? Inquiring minds want to know.

Allen Hunt's Blog

The Allen Hunt Show is about faith and life, plain and simple. According to a Gallup Poll in May of 2005, 85% of Americans consider their faith important or fairly important to their lives. Yet there is a gap on the talk radio airwaves that examines where faith and life come together. This show fills that gap like nothing currently on the radio. This is not one more political talk show, nor is it another faith-based counseling show because ultimately, life is not about what is right or left, but about what is right and wrong. The Allen Hunt Show takes on real life issues, with real life people, to see how faith can have a real impact. Join us on Saturdays from 9-11 PM and Sundays from 6-9 PM. Blessings!
