This will be a page, not a post, and if anyone wants to help, let me know &#8211; I could be the info collector and you could design the page. I just thought it would be kind of nice to have a page on which one could find links to posts from bloggers who have visited Rome and those who live and blog from there. I&#8217;m not sure exactly how to structure it, and I want to keep it simple, but I think it would be an interesting and fun resource. <\/p>\n<p>3) Catholic Scripture Study. This is probably the most common bleg I get from readers &#8211; people wanting guidance on what Scripture study resources are out there that would be good for individuals, groups and youth. I really have no idea, since it&#8217;s been a while since I worked in a parish or have been seeking these things. But a page with resources &#8211; NOT pages of weblinks to articles, but an annotated list of books, booklets, discussion guides, etc. Again, this would be a page &#8211; and if something like this exists, let me know and you&#8217;ll save us all a lot of work.<\/p>\n<p>4)&nbsp; There&#8217;s another one, but it escapes me at the moment.

She attended Knoxville Catholic High School, then the University of Tennessee where she majored in history.

Amy has written columns for Our Sunday Visitor and Catholic News Service at times over the past twenty years. Her articles have been published in venues ranging from Our Sunday Visitor to the New York Times to Commonweal. She has written 17 books. 18, if you included the as yet tragically unpublished novel. Amy has five children, ranging in age from 26 to 4 and was married to Michael Dubruiel, who died unexpectedly in February 2009. She lives in Birmingham, Alabama.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/author\/awelborn"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2899","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/180"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2899"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2899\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2899"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2899"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/viamedia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2899"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
