There are tricks to sleeping, but I'm not good at too many of them... hence a post coming at close to midnight.

quest, you bring to mind a great point. The version should not matter in MOST cases. We are not muslims and we do not limit the power of our God's word to just aramaic or one translation. However, some translations do not provide true meaning, like the message, and should be avoid as anything...

The only thing I would add is be strong in what you want, and say it clear. Be the Leader God calls us men to be.:yes

I do not think expecting men to treat gals as their sister is a good approach. It might just be me, but I think there is room for some wooing as long as it does not involve over-the-top intimate expressions. The issue with lust comes in just as pard suggested. We have this unreal expectation...

Gotcha. I was just looking for clarification as I would significantly challenge that sarcasm is just a tool of ego. Sarcasm can also be used a tool for bringing some light-hearted, hard truths to a conversation. For instance, when I teach, I will often ask a sarcastic question, such as. "We...

I'm a big fan of the NASB. It is typically the most literal translation, with some room for debate of course. I recommend getting comfortable picking up any translation, though.

Um... she's not a Tattoo artist anymore. That was from a different time in life before we met. Yes, thoguh, we met at college.

Glad you added that clause with Nick...;) BTW, hook up might be a bad choice of words for this generation and this discussion. :lol Let's start by having them exchange cell-phone numbers for texting. :)

Would you like to share about something from your past experience with college? Share it here. If it needs to stay in Vegas, we'd encourage that. :)

I thought there needed to be a few more options as well.I would have tried it if the need arised, but it neve did. There was one gal I would have done it for it a heartbeat in my younger days, but that wasn't what God has in mind. I was really blessed that He didn't.

Yes, we are out there, and no they are not all taken. I can agree with Pizza too, I was passed up plenty of times because I told any gal who wanted to date that marraige was the goal. Then, I met a gal who understood life as I did, and now we have a very happy family. There has been some good...

But no ideas or looks at a particular doctrine that stood out? I mean, his chapter on adoption had some great meat to it, and some things that took some thinking.

Two big doctrines can be seen here both regarding the Holy Spirit and Creation. What do you all see Paul telling us?

Well, what did Roman's 8 tell us. God will work everything for the good of those who love him. Even if this is hard for the youthgroup, God will make it beneift those who are truly loving him. Jman is right on!
