    Having a non-Christian best friend

    Thank you for your considered response! She was baptised I believe, but is firmly atheistic. I’ve never pushed her on it, as she is evidently set in her ways (I’ve always adhered to the idea of trying to set a good example, rather than confronting). You discern correctly my dilemma about...

    Having a non-Christian best friend

    Yes; this is the approach I take too - to hold firm on matters of principle.

    Having a non-Christian best friend

    I do spend the majority of time with my male friends already; she and I have always been explicitly non-romantic, so there’s no attraction there on either part. My worry, principally, was whether or not such differences are tolerable, not that one of us might get funny ideas about the other, as...

    Having a non-Christian best friend

    Hello, I know this isn’t strictly family-related, but we are very close. I’d like to hear some both moral and religious perspectives on the suitability of being best friends with, and spending time with, a non-Christian. My best friend is a relatively moral person, but we differ radically on...

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    That’s my general attitude too, to accomplish as much as I can otherwise. Thanks Lynx!

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    These are a lot of good tips! It’s just a matter of getting on the social ladder I suppose, as you rightly suggest. From there, hopefully good things will follow, beyond the spiritual fulfilment derived from doing good.

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    To elaborate slightly on my reply to Lynx, since I was about 18 I felt a draw back to faith, that only truly strengthened - forgive me, it is not something I can articulate precisely - at the start of this year. I felt it entirely natural and logical to accept God again, in that period...

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    Thank you kindly for the tips, which I have taken mental note of, but I meant my question more locationally i.e. how and where in terms of places to go (physically and virtually). Sorry for being unclear.

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    Sorry for my not knowing. I was christened as an infant, but my family stopped attending church when I was about 7, when my dad becomes an atheist. I’ve returned to faith in about the last month, and have been studying the KJV since. I wanted to gain an understanding of scripture first as a...

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    That’s a fair point 😂 I suppose I could phrase it better: theoretically, where might one look? As to what type of girl, I have found all manner of women attractive. Ordinary traits like kindness and good-humouredness are particularly appealing to me. To what keeps me from finding her, it is...

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    I am a Christian, and thus should like my marriage to be sanctified in the presence of God.

    How/where does one find a Christian wife? (UK)

    Hello, My name is Adam and I’m 21. I have only recently - in the last year or so - developed a yearning for companionship, marriage, fatherhood etc. Hitherto, I was not overly interested in these things, preferring to focus on my own hobbies and interests. I was friends with a number of girls...

    Pornography addiction

    I was never addicted like you, or like many of my friends, but would watch it infrequently, perhaps monthly. The way I stopped was to keep a mental tally, like X days since I stopped. That way, as the days pass, your resolve strengthens. I’ve used this method for other things too, like not...

    Thank you for your detailed response Amanda :) I shall look into those apps that you suggest. Thank you also for your offer of friendship; if I have any questions I shall be sure to ask you, and if there is ever anything I can do for you, please let me know.

    Hello! 21M (UK) looking for Christian friends

    Hello all, My name is Adam and I’m 21 and from the United Kingdom. I was christened Anglican with my brother aged 2, but we stopped going to church when I was about 9, when my dad stated he didn’t want to go any longer. I’ve sort of been teetering on returning to Christianity ever since I was 18...
