I just wanted to put up a note of thanks to all those who sent in Bible-related questions after my recent invitation for them–as well as those sending in questions on other topics.
So many folks responded that it’s taking me some time to work through the questions that were sent in, but I wanted to let you know that I’m still working on them and will let you know before your question goes up on the site.
Muchas gracias, mis amigos!

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

And we, Jimmy, want to thank you for always being willing to answer our questions and for always providing such clear and well-thought out answers when you do.
“Muchas gracias, mis amigos!” Mis, Mis, Mis????
shouldn’t that be just “mi”??? 😉
Maybe I’m wrong, but anyways, thanks for your hard work on this blog Jimmy, you are helping so many people out there! Thank the Lord! Keep it up brother—I mean hermano! Muchas gracias!
No. Since the noun is plural, the possessive is mis.
And, Jimmy, ALT+0161 will give you the “upside-down” exclamation point (“¡”) that should begin your sentence.
¡Muchas gracias, mis amigos!
“You’ll thank me later.” 😉
¡Gracias Benedict y Buzz! Tu es muy smarto!
Jimmy never responds to my emails :-(. Then again I’ve only sent him a couple.
Because of that I’ll ask this here in hopes of getting a response. What happened to Michelle Arnold? I just noticed she’s not on the JA.O bloggers list any more.
“Jimmy never responds to my emails :-(. Then again I’ve only sent him a couple.”
He hasn’t responded to mine either, but, then again, Jimmy is a busy man!
Hey, Jimmy didn’t respond to my email either! Whassup with that? Is there a “Jimmy Akin rejected me” club out there that I can join?
JR and Esau, I think we should have buttons made.
Although…simply speaking for myself you understand…perhaps (like Wayne and Garth) my question wasn’t worthy. Perhaps it was Jimmy’s ingrained Southern politeness that kept him from saying, “What a dumb question!”
Hmmmm…but JR and Esau both tend to be S-M-R-T on this blog, so maybe it isn’t that my question was dumb.
Ohmigosh, JIMMY WHICH IS IT? WAS MY QUESTION DUMB OR ARE YOU JUST BUSY!?!?!?!
Sincerely,
Mary
