Good one, Mr. T! 😎👍

Thanks for your thoughts! I do identify with a lot of that. Especially the part about giving chaotic buttheads a chance, to the detriment of my own social standing 😂. Been accused of ulterior romantic motives a few times as well. 😑😒 And yet..... I'm losing count of the times some basic...

Oh definitely, anger is a characteristic of God and I think righteous anger/indignation is proper for Christians as well. Especially if it motivates us to protect or defend those who are vulnerable. 😎👍 Human wrath I have a harder time with because vengeance belongs to God and He sees all angles...

Great verse to ponder, miss Daisy! I appreciate you! 🤗

Lol ok, you distract 'em while I confuse 'em, together we will conquer the internets! 🤠 Seriously, maybe you're right. Still, in hindsight I felt like I came across as too conciliatory. When I saw the person go on to attack others who were legit bothered, I did get angry then. But at that point...

I agree, especially with the parts I singled out above. Christianity is not a spectator sport, but many modern churches treat it as such. As far as the solution goes, emphasis on the gifts and Spirit-enabled abilities of the entire congregation goes a long way. Some people don't witness...

Great thoughts! I would have to agree, the real culprit often isn't what we think it is. I think that can be the case for most (if not all) sins. I have found for myself that I tend to struggle with pride when my self-esteem is low. I think it's because my brain is over-compensating 😂...

Hey everyone! Posting this in singles because ya'll are chill 😎. A recent online interaction has me in an existential quandary. I was reading back over the interaction with no intention to reply or comment, simply wanting to process what had already been said. As I was reading I couldn't help...

Yeah... I was thinking about this more today, and I wonder if Sarah, Abigail, Esther, or Rahab felt "privileged". Sarah was given over to foreign men by her own husband. Abigail ended up married to a man she didn't respect, probably through a hefty dowry paid to her father. Then she had to...

I'm just waiting for @Texasgal to pop on and inform us that she ain't nice, and she certainly ain't no lady! 😜 In all seriousness, I wish Anthony the best according to God's will! He might enjoy the fellowship here regardless 🙂

OK, THIS part does strike me as a red flag 🚩. Of course, as always it would depend on the context. Maybe your guyfriend brought it up and asked to see a pic. But if not..... yeah that definitely sounds like conquest/trophy behavior. 😕

Totally! I'd consider it a MUCH bigger red flag if we couldn't have a mature, open discussion about the pics and how we both felt about them.

Hi miss Hope! Very interesting thread and very interesting responses! 😎👍 Given the context of what you said in the above quote, my first impression is that he brought it up to guage your reaction. The "unofficial" stage of a relationship can be confusing because there are feelings present but...

Girl, I hope you're not offended by me saying this..... your old church sounds a Lil whack. 😬😳 It's one thing to require marriage within the body of Christ (definitely biblical!), but to require it within the CONGREGATION sounds like the mark of a cult. Glad you escaped...er, "left" 😜 Regarding...

I used to worry about the state of the world a lot too, but then at some point I realized there wasn't anything I could do about it (other than pray). It's all going to end at some point, sooner or later. I also realized there IS something I can do about the state of my community, so I've been...
