    The Origins of Religion

    I remember when I was in school, theory was just that - theory - not proven, now a theory is seen as fact, they are assumptions and theory to theory building is now a fact. It's ludicrous. Scientists don't know as much as they'd like us to believe, simply because their "facts" are only...

    Bible Study Bible & homosexual marriage

    This contradicts what Paul said here: 1 Cor 10:23 “All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up. If we are under Law, then yes, it would mean that we are sinning under the Law and breaking one of them, means we have broken them...

    How far would you go?

    The first time I prayed for one of my children for hanging out with a questionable crowd and I was really stressed out about it, I feel like the Lord kept telling me to "love my child through it", so this has been a constant reminder and a call to action on my part, no matter what love them...

    How old were you when you were born again and where did it happen?

    There wasn't a single moment in time that I could say I was born again, but I was very young, 9 or 10 when I first started seeking God, I loved reading the Bible my grandmother gave to me, I would read it for hours in my room. When I went to bed, I would sing and pray to God, it's how I went to...

    Happy Church Day Everyone!

    It is a sad reality of people in the church today. Instead of encouragement, comfort and sincere, honest prayer when presenting a personal issue, we are met with judgement and condemnation. It doesn't create a very safe environment for people to share their struggles. I remember when that same...

    Happy Church Day Everyone!

    That's a whole lot of assumptions (judgement) about Obadiah on your part. :yes Jumping from attending church, to money, to nice clothes......all over the map.

    Happy Church Day Everyone!

    If a person lives too far away from a church to attend or do service with, it doesn't mean that person isn't doing a ministry and being used by God. 1,000's of people live too far away from a church to attend, they are not able to serve inside a church for this reason. Yet, they are still, or at...

    when God sends you a message

    If we listen, God us speaking to us more often than we notice, imo. Yet, a very specific time was very recent, He was preparing me for a switch at my job by placing on my heart a desire for a specific duty at work. I mentioned to my boss this new desire and she said no because of time...

    why do mothers talk a lot?

    My kid's Dad talks to them a lot, they talk about issues I don't have a clue about, science, engineering, physics. I talk to them more about their day and why females are so strange. ;) oh, of course I an the one to talk about God and the Bible.

    female gluttons

    You said it well, that was the point I was trying to make. I love good food, love trying new recipes - especially like cooking with salmon, shrimp, crab, lobster, steak and chicken - all YUM. I also like making to die for desserts - but it's all portion control.

    female gluttons

    I am a "foodie" for sure, but have lost almost 45 lbs in the process. Gluttony? Anyone can be a glutton. I don't see any stereotypical differences in this area between males and females, but maybe there are and I'm not seeing them.

    Do you want to be fed or guided through religious rituals?

    You really hit it on the head, it's exactly what it is.

    Do you want to be fed or guided through religious rituals?

    If God was in this sort of movement, then it wouldn't fail. The problem, imo, might be that we are conditioned (in the west at least) and were taught that the church services have to be the way they are and there is no other way to conduct "going to church". We've also been taught going to...

    Do you want to be fed or guided through religious rituals?

    Like Willie and yourself, the attitude of what can we give to others and the church is, imo, how we are to approach it. It would be nice if church services were set up in a way where we are being fed the truth in a more meaningful way, for instance, being able to openly discuss what is being...

    Do you have a "go to" bible verse?

    These 2 verses are on plaques on my desk at work, they have both helped me through times of high anxiety: Isaiah 40:31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. (NIV)...

    Confession

    Your request reminded me of a pastor who told us we should not ask to be taken from the lion's den, but strength to endure it, as to be refined. I can tell you have an immense love for the Lord, Blake! Prayers being said for you.

    Any other single parents out there? :)

    Hi Kimberly! I am a single mom, but my children are much older than your child, they are both in college, they do still live with me as it saves everyone money. I wasn't a single mom while they were really young and their dad is heavily involved with their lives. I do not have any other family...
