SUNCOOK, S.C.. — Betty Lynn Monroe believes her dog, Rambler, has had a conversion comparable to what humans experience. Monroe says that for months Rambler has been sitting in a corner and listening to her home Bible study group discuss the Bible. Then, last week during the prayer time, Rambler ran into their midst, lay down on the floor and looked up at them with “a look of pure regret and sadness,” Monroe says. “It was as sincere as anything I’ve seen among humans at the altar at church.” The group laid hands on Rambler and prayed that God would make him a “born-again creature.” Rambler then leapt up and pranced around the living room. “It was the most joyous display of freedom in Christ we’d ever seen,” says one woman. “I teared up.” Since his “conversion,” Rambler is more helpful.
