About Layman's Ass

In the Bible, specifically in Numbers 22-24, there is a story of how God used a donkey, or an ass to speak to one of His prophets. This story is commonly referred to as "Balaam's Ass" because Balaam was the name of the prophet, and it was his donkey through whom God spoke.
As a play on words, I called this blog "Layman's ass," first because I'm a layman (not a member of a clergy, nor a Bible college grad) and second, I would like to jump out in front of you as a reader and prevent you from accusing me of "speaking out of my ass," because as the title indicates, I am already admitting to doing so.
I manage a couple websites, and blog in several places, but this one will be my "theological" blog, my way of expressing thoughts on books, Biblical passages, sermons I hear, and other Christian and religious topics as they come my way.
