    Run like a girl

    I agree that "like a girl" should not be an insult, just as reba pointed out that "like a boy" isn't an insult. I do believe we need to make a distinction between men and women, however, not to say that one is less than the other, but to acknowledge and celebrate our differences. I am glad women...

    Heh, no, not particularly. It's closer to Jonathan Maberry's Patient Zero. Think "Die Hard" meets a Billy Graham Crusade. With zombies.

    That's amusing. My mentor is an engineer and published author. Your book concept sounds interesting, very much unlike other books I've heard about. I'd definitely run with that idea.

    Who Are Your Heroes?

    As often as he seems crazy, he is perhaps the most sane individual among his group, and despite his reputation and desires, he often does the right thing. When he cannot do the right thing and serve himself, he chooses to serve others at a great cost to himself.

    Writers

    I do keep a journal, and I think that is beneficial. When I started this thread, I was thinking more of people who write creative fiction, informational articles, poetry, and so on. Christian fiction often follows a formula wherein a character presents the Gospel to another character, often in...

    Losing Salvation after getting saved?

    I have not read through every post in this thread, as I do not have the time or inclination. However, I have struggled with whether or not a person can lose or voluntarily forsake their salvation. This is a question which deals with the nearly taboo issue of predestination. Of course, there are...

    Writers

    Who here is a writer? What do you write? Do you write solely for yourself, or do you have aspirations to be published? Are you already published? I love writing. It is my catharsis and my reason for living at times, whether that is good or bad. I can communicate with God much more easily...

    Who Are Your Heroes?

    Do you have any heroes aside from Christ? I assume He is "a given" for any Christian.

    Who Are Your Heroes?

    I have many heroes, but most of them do not exist. I find my role models in literature and film, and occasionally in songs. Of course, any Christian "is required" to list Jesus as a hero, given His death on the cross for us. Aside from Him, who would you say is/are your heroes (real or...

    Joel Osteen, good or bad

    There are charismatics in my town, but--in my mind--Osteen and his ilk (i.e., Benny Hinn) take the "charisma" to a whole new level. They have (at least in the past) claimed to have healed many, and there have been deaths of conference/seminar/church attendees of Osteen's and Hinn's. The only...

    Forget the spiders. It's mosquito season!

    249/250 clays for the Shotgun Merit Badge. A mosquito shouldn't be a problem.

    A large shotgun.

    Bipolar Disorder

    Yes, now that I have experience with it, I'm not a fan of Lithium, either. I need to speak with my psychiatrist about alternatives, but I don't know when I'll be able to talk to her. I see her once every few months, and she rarely looks at me when we talk. She cuts me off, missing what I...

    [ Testimony ] The Descent into Shadow

    Yes, God has brought me through many things, and I would not be who I am today without Him leading me. Thank God He's not done with me yet.

    Here's a Surprise: There's This Woman...

    That is my struggle: being patient. I also have a difficult time compartmentalizing, which means I share too much too soon. I have not yet learned what to share and when. Often I share a part of me that comes across as too intense, and it scares people away from me.

    Photographs A Reminder to the Accuser

    I modified this image until I liked it. I have a sordid love affair with the Crusades, like two lovers in a tiff who can't get enough of one another. For that reason, my visual work often revolves around knights (both from the Crusades and not). A Reminder to the Accuser Vanquished, you think...

    Rise up - go to church

    Peace and love in Christ to you as well. I had not heard that, though I would disagree, given the use of the word for "locust" (akris) elsewhere in Scripture. It wouldn't make sense for vanilla beans to be that which ravages the Earth in Revelation (see the 9th chapter).

    Rise up - go to church

    John the Baptist did indeed eat locusts and honey. I love that guy. I agree with you: feed your congregation and get them asking, and don't be afraid to say, "I don't know, let's find out together." I am more likely to trust a pastor who charges headfirst into the unknown, rather than acts like...
