    Dose it really matter what version of the Bible I read

    Stovebolts - I couldn't agree more! If at all possible, learn the original languages or use a concordance accordingly. I personally am a 'collector' of Bible translations and try to stay cognizant of what type of translations they are (e.g. thought-for-thought or word-for-word). I read...

    Advice-Opting out of Christmas gifts

    This is a very interesting thread. I did not grow up celebrating Christmas, because of a legalistic Christian denomination, so my feelings about Christmas, Santa Claus, gift giving, etc, are varied and not set in stone. Kudos to you for following, what I am sure is, the Holy Spirit in your...

    The Case for Early Marriage...

    I will probably be married when I am 29ish and, for me personally, that boils down to deferred emotional maturity and a slew of bad choices in previous relationships. So, I suppose, it really is relative to a person's upbringing and life choices.

    Children's belief in Santa Claus

    Goodness, Handy, you make me think! To me, telling a child, verbatim, that Santa exists, that if Sally is a good girl, she won't be on his naughty list, etc, is delivering a lie to that child. I don't think that point can be argued. "Thou shalt not lie" - we have this God-given tenet, do we...

    Children's belief in Santa Claus

    I agree, I do not believe He was born on December 25th but yes, at least we know He is real!

    Children's belief in Santa Claus

    I am NOT trying to start a firestorm...I am looking for genuine feedback to the following question: Do you think that a child's belief, and parents' propagation of said belief, in Santa is harmful? My line of thinking is simple and black and white, for all intents and purposes, it is a lie...

    [__ Prayer __] Could use prayers for encouragement

    Thank you all for your prayers. I wanted to share a praise that I had a wonderfully fulfilling and encouraging weekend!! God is continuing to work me through those wounds that try to keep me bound to discouragement and to my emotions. Praise Him!!

    [__ Prayer __] Could use prayers for encouragement

    Friends, Would you please pray that God brings me encouragement? I am currently, in my life, recovering from addictions and a wounded past. I am also thinking about marrying. All of these things can keep me worrisome and can keep me focused on myself. I don't want that, I want to be able...

    [__ Prayer __] Going home to visit family for Thanksgiving...

    I can understand and He has heard my prayers for your peace as you visit with family. Try not to let the past control you as you are now controlled by the Holy Spirit which is not a spirit that leads us to fear but to a sound mind. :)

    So what...

    Interesting, do you really think so? The whole hidden, secret society thing is fascinating!

    Any George MacDonald fans out there?

    All, I am lately enamored by a Christian author named George MacDonald. He wrote a lot of Christian poetry and novels in the middle 1800s. Is anyone familiar with him? If not, you should be! :-)

    I repent

    Oats, I don't know you, yet, but know how easy it is to post hastily on the Inter-webz. No worries! I think His grace covers even this :)

    What can we give?

    Because he created us? Yes. Anything that the Creator creates is His. Without getting too deep, I think that all that we have inside of us is ours in the sense that God doesn't necessarily create it, rather, it is created by the mechanisms that He has granted to us in our being human. I...
