The Spiritman Update can be read like a devotional. It follows the comics panel by panel mixed with commentary from the creators and a dose of scripture.

Martin is looking right at a figure emerging from the fog. Still he does not know what he is seeing. Will you know when you see it?
"but how he now sees, we don’t know; or who opened his eyes, we don’t know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself."
John 9:21 WMB

So, it’s been awhile. Circumstances have pulled me away from working on Spiritman as much as I would like. I started a new job. Then almost immediately I was hospitalized twice in a single month. Fortunately I still have a job and my health has improved. I am only sharing this with you because I want to say how great God is, and I miss doing that through my Spiritman postings.
Since the idea of a daily posting no longer makes sense I will start calling these things The Spiritman Update. Please know that I appreciate you for following the Daily Dose and look forward to a more regular, if not daily, posting of Spiritman. I am currently in the middle of drawing issue 4. Issue 5 has been written so there are many great things waiting to be shared.
Behold, God is great, and we don’t know him. The number of his years is unsearchable.
Job 36:26 WMB

Out of the fog. We finally get to see what Martin, Chelsea, and Cameron are seeing. Still not sure what it is. Just remember the setting is still in Martin's bedroom... weird.
Got to tell you about a wonderful podcast produced by the author of Spiritman, Scott A. Snyder and his nephew Brad. The podcast is called "Not About Us." They are doing deep dives into the scriptures, currently looking at Genesis and Revelation. It is fun to hear them marvel in wonder at the greatness of God's word. Definitely worth your time. You can find them on iTunes or at their website... Not About Us
"To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood— and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father—to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen."
Revelation 1:5b-6 WMB

What does it mean to be human? That's a big question. I can only offer a small part of the answer.
"So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger; for the anger of man doesn’t produce the righteousness of God."
Jacob (James) 1:19-20 WMB
Spiritman Daily Dose 349
Spiritman has been battling demons that emerged from the fog but now a human emerges. What does that mean? I am as excited as you are to learn the answer.
"The angel said to me, “Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns."
Revelation 17:7 WMB
Spiritman Daily Dose 350
The mysterious being that stepped from the fog... a prophetess?.. is looking right at Chelsea. Does Chelsea even know why she is being watched? I doubt it.
"They have now surrounded us in our steps. They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth."
Psalm 17:11 WMB
Spiritman Daily Dose 351
Spiritman has been engaged in spiritual combat with ugly demonic beings that emerged from the fog. He has beaten them back but then a seemingly human person emerges and stares at Chelsea. What should Spiritman do with this?
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves."
Matthew 7:15 WMB

Hello! My name is Amanda. I am a teenager, an aspiring Christian author, and a hopeless superhero addict. I just wanted to thank you two for writing those books. Their message came to me at a time when I needed it. They gave me hope. Keep writing and never give up.
