As I posted earlier: Today is Catholic Media Promotion Day!
Therefore, here are my picks:
For my 3 blogs:
I will place a dear, sweet, lady first:
Dymphna’s Well, described as “Celebrating beauty in art, music, poetry and scripture.”
I discovered Dymphna’s blog years ago. Long before I had my own computer I had made it a point that whenever I was online her blog would be on the list of sites to review.
Next up:
Stumbling Back Home: “A posterous to document my spiritual journey. – A spiritual seeker’s diary of returning to the Catholic church, after a long time in the desert.”
Anything about “spiritual seeking” involving Catholicism or returning to it draws my attention. Laymonk does a great job.
Then:
Roger’s posterous: “A blog, an eclectic collection of things, an experiment.”
Roger is an online friend of mine, and is helpful and supportive of some of my online doings, namely Recovery for Christ.
I picked Dymphna’s, Laymonk’s and Roger’s blogs as although I read a bunch of blogs and probably communicate on Facebook, Twitter and Plurk with other bloggers more often, these are really the only 3 that I go to without bothering to see their feed in my RSS feed reader first. No disrespecting any other bloggers, it is just how things resonate.
For my 3 podcasts:
First, the “Home Office”: Radio Vaticana. Vatican Radio has some great podcast resources, from the Pope’s weekly audiences and Angelus broadcasts, to English language news and such.
Then:
Where I learn stuff:
Catholic Roundup
Sean’s a wonderful guy, and Canadian!!!!! How kewl is that!
Last up:
Catholic Weekend — An SQPN Featured Show
For my 3 Media picks:
Rob Williams, is the Tupelo Geek: “Using Technology for Personal and Professional Growth!”
And um, Oh My God… It’s Full Of Stars. Just because Chris is cool, too.
Lastly: Catholic Web Solutions:”Bringing the Expertise and Gifts of Catholic Organizations to the Internet”
For random Catholic stuff:
My wife Rose’s site, which feature her photography and other work, including links to her online store. These store are places where you can purchase her work. Yes, as in BUYING MY WIFE’S excellent photography and other artistic endeavors (HINT-HINT-HINT)
ARTIST4GOD: Rose Santuci-Sofranko
Then, a great idea for a browser startup page: myCatholic.com : “Customizable Catholic Homepage”. It has been my home page for years. It is customizable!
Finally, the premier Catholic radio station in the world, after Vatican Radio:
Station of the Cross
For my projects:
There’s my primary blog: Sober Catholic: “Conversion, Penance, Recovery, Sobriety, Scripture, Prayer, Catholicism.” Also The Four Last Things: “Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell.”
I also run a small social network: Recovery for Christ
I’ll cheat and mention a fourth project: CatholicPreachy.com : “Preachin’ da WORD to da HERD :-)”
CP is a joint project I share with Bro Jer, one of my bestest online buddies, and to whom I owe a lot.
Well, that’s all for that. I Tweeted an idea to Sean that maybe this CMPD should be held on March 25th, the Feast of the Annunciation. Just a thought!
I have a new book! "The Sober Catholic Way" is a handbook on how anyone can live a sober life, drawn from over 17 years of SoberCatholic posts! It's out now on "Amazon," "Apple Books," "B&N" and and others!"!My two other books are still available! "The Stations of the Cross for Alcoholics" and "The Recovery Rosary: Reflections for Alcoholics and Addicts" (Thank you!!)
I love these picks…especially the new places I have to see! You rock, sir. Always!
Okay, mostly always. Cuz, you know, I wouldn’t want it going to your head.
🙂 LOL Thanks Maria!
Great Posting Paul. All the best. I do like the idea for March 25th.
Maybe in 2012? This year might be too soon. Greg, Sean and whomever else can discuss it!
Ooh – I forgot to mention myCatholic,com, even though I have it open in a tab right in front of me!
Thanks for the mention, Paul!!! 😀
Thanks everybody!
Thanks for the mention, Paul. Keep up the good work!
