Mystery Photo #4


Author: Jimmy Akin

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."

  1. It is the orthodox side of the Holy Sepulcher, on the top of Calvary, looking over from the Catholic side.
    Am I right?

  2. You are correct totustuusmaria. That curved display case contains a bust of Our Lady of Sorrows.

  3. I was going to guess the Holy Sepulcher (based on having seen it on TV before) and mention that the guy has a hat on in Church, tsk tsk. Beaten on both counts though.

  4. Church of the Nativity or the Holy Seplechure both have the “Oriental” style of candles and holders. The Orthodox, Armenians, and Copts all have some section and certain times (as well as we Latin Catholic)
