    How much should I know about God?

    I wouldn't get obsessed with trying to understand every little event. Sovereignty is just one of ten aspects of divine essence. Most if not all of them are very difficult for the finite human mind to understand. We get a glimpse now and in eternity a much greater understanding. The essence...

    My hair is thinning and falling out. I need prayers.

    Seems to me you now have two good reasons to see a doctor; your hair is falling out and you can't get pregnant. Confess your sins of fear and worry, trust in God, and go see a doctor. As long as you are filled with the Spirit, your prayer for yourself is just as effective as anyone else's...

    Travel and home security

    Being away for 6 - 8 weeks is a long time. How about a locked gate & private property sign at the beginning of your 1 mile driveway. Whenever I go on a trip I take normal precautions but put up a prayer and ask God to protect my property while I am gone. Our lives are in His hands. Disaster...

    Is it wrong for cristians to be emo

    If I understand what you are asking: Emotions are the appreciators of life. They follow, they do not lead. They respond they do not initiate. What you think is what you are and what you should think is what the scripture teaches us.

    Day 2 being sober

    "Trying" is where addicted people start in giving it up. Then they discover the degree of the strength of their addiction. They try, they fail, they try, they fail. That's when determination has to kick in or you just cycle in and out of addiction. So Bingo does have a point. You must be...

    Is cleanliness next to godliness?

    If you google it, it says John Wesley (1703 -1791) first used the phrase in a sermon. How often you wash is a personal decision but should take into account consideration for others and your own health needs. Today, physical washing is not directly related to anything spiritual. In the...

    Please suggest good Christian movies

    I have to say I am very leery of any Christian film that has someone playing Christ with a speaking role, especially when and they are not quoting scripture but making up new dialog for Christ. Very iffy territory, disrespectful, speculative, and I think a wrong move for any Christian or...

    Please suggest good Christian movies

    kaylagrl, could you clarify which movie you are referring to? There is one called "God's Not Dead, a Light in Darkness" (2017), another called simply "God's not Dead" (2014). There is also a "God's not Dead2" (2016).

    Minimalism

    I have know people who kept everything! I saw it as a weakness, not as a good idea. They did it because they saw value and usefulness in everything, but they were also very insecure and thought they would live long enough to need it all. They failed to accept the brevity of this life and gave...

    Minimalism

    I think it comes down to evaluating everything you own as to its value and usefulness. What are your priorities? What are your necessities? I wouldn't become a minimalist just to be a minimalist. It has to make sense for you.

    Minimalism

    I guess it depends on what you mean by being a minimalist. I suspect that people who chose to live in tiny houses secretly dream of having more space. There is a book, which I have read a little of, called "The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing"...
