    Social Network

    One of my wife's friends on Facebook asked if anyone had heard of "USA Life social network"? Supposedly it's the conservative Christian answer to Facebook. I thought USALife was an insurance company?

    Chronological Bible question

    I have seen Chronological Bibles in a Christian Book Distributors catalog I get sometimes but have never actually seen one to look at. I know they're supposed to be re-aligned into what happened first, and in order time wise. My question is does it start with Genesis 1:1 or with John 1:1? I took...

    Fear not.

    I understand that in the Bible, the phrase "Fear not" appears 366 times. Once for every day day of the year, including Leap year. So in this time of over commercialization, how is it that there has not been a perpetual calendar made?

    Should a Church be involved in this?

    So my small South Arkansas town has spent several million dollars building a performing arts venue about a block off the downtown square. In the last 10 + years, we have lost half our industry, and at least 10 K in population-from 28 K down to a little over 18 K. They hired some consultant who...

    Attendance

    Can anyone explain the reason why Churches take roll? Not just in Sunday School, but also attendance during regular service, usually by the usage of the tithe envelope.

    First Things magazines

    Does anyone know anything about First Things magazine? I received an invite to subscribe to it and was wanting some general information. I know it's a religious magazine, but knot much else. After visiting their website I'm not even sure what religion it is. Thanks, Richard.

    Bible verse question

    Pardon me if this is in the wrong spot. Isn't there a bible verse that talks about not going along with the crowd, just to get along? Or am I having an old fogey moment? Richard.

    Bible Study Acts 21:25

    My men's bible study class is studying Acts. Last week was chapter 21, which in verse 25 mentions "... abstaining from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality."(NIV). We understand the last bit about sexual immorality, but we're not...

    Memorial Day question.

    This may not be the right spot for this. But what is the general feeling of a Church leader who thinks it's akin to idol worship to in any way honor the fallen or ex-military on the Sunday closest to Memorial day or the 4th of July, yet still does Mothers/Fathers day programs and a High School...

    [_ Old Earth _] Hawkins quotation help.

    I had been told that in one of his books, Stephen Hawkins had stated that during one or more of his experiments, all the evidence pointed to God being the answer. He also stated that he could not accept this answer, so he threw out all of his research, invented new mathematics, and reworked the...

    Do I not deserve some basic courtesy?

    So I was at work on this past Saturday. I was only scheduled for 2 hours and 45 minutes. I work in fast food. So, at 10:15, my scheduled time off, no one had came in to take over the grill specifically. There was 2 people working who both could work the grill and the make table. Nobody came to...

    Obedient women

    Interesting Week

    In the 33 years since I've graduated high school and have been a registered voter, for the first time I've been called to serve jury duty. Monday, I was the last alternate called for a murder trial that lasted 3 days. Thursday, I was the last juror called for a rape trial that lasted the one...
