@Butterflyyy Here is my main feeling about all of this though: it is really circumstantial. This is just the way that the Lord CHOSE to work in MY life and use ME. My plan may or may not be the plan of other people my age. Some kids may not swim well in a public school atmosphere and that is...

Hello @Butterflyyy !! It is so nice to hear from you and I have no issue whatsoever with answering these questions. So, this spring I graduated from college as a part of the class of 2020, and I graduated from high school in 2016. I actually came to really know the Lord during my freshman year...

Thank you for giving this insightful response regarding Dinah's story. I am in the process of reading the Bible all the way through and I was heavily drawn to Dinah's story, but I couldn't necessarily figure out what it was about the story that drew me in. I didn't see it from this point of...

Hello all, I am experiencing a lot of tension in my personal relationships right now. I am finding myself to be quite "down in the dumps;" I pray and pray, but my earthly situation just seems to be taking over each day. I rarely ever ask for people to pray for me... but if you can, please pray...

I completely get your point and that is why I stated that I believe homeschooling can be a really beneficial and safe place for many, many people. I understand everyones public education experience may not be the same as mine, but I just wanted to share what could come out of it for someone. I...

Everyone, I do not follow him, listen to him, nor do I consistently watch him. I just stumbled upon the video and was curious to know what people thought about it. I completely agree with this!! I really just wanted to see if other people saw this the same way as I did, because I didn't know if...

I am asking out of curiosity, in what context than is it "okay" for a woman to teach? Outside of a church? Without men present? Because in the passage I listed above, it states that woman shouldn't teach over men. I have seen many times men and women fellowship together and women share beautiful...

That's the thing, the Christian perspective isnt supposed to be "practical," its supposed to be Biblical. Yes, you have to be logical about things, but I root everything I believe in the Word of God. I truly do go to Scripture for all of my guidance and answers; and if I don't find it right...

Maybe leaving the country and going on those trips is your calling, though, truly. I love your confidence so much in God's ability to speak through you. That is something I need to work on... is feeling content to let Him do the work, instead of stress over what I am going to say myself. I also...

I know what you mean by all of this; I don't think you have it all wrong at all. I think that an aid to your point would be to emphasize with others that Christians are sinners and are in a place of need just like everyone else. Aside from being a renewed part of Christ's body, there is no set...

Hello, all! I recently came across this video on YouTube by a man named Pastor Anderson. I have seen some of his other videos before, and quite frankly, they've disturbed me. This thread is not so much about him personally; I am curious to know what people's responses, reactions, and thoughts...

Hello, brothers and sisters. I wanted to get some opinion's on a topic that can be very controversial amongst believers: the role of a woman in evangelism, ministry, preaching, parenting, work, life, etc. Before I start, PLEASE PLEASE... this is a touchy subject but I am not here to start...

@EliBeth - thank you for responding. I think you honestly just shared the true feelings of all Christians, to be honest. First off, I promise you that I will pray for Juliet. She will be on my heart. :) I understand the feeling of questioning, like you aren't doing what you should be. I don't...

Hello, @alittlelonger! Thank you for opening up and being transparent about everything. Well, it sounds like in your situations they really are based on very personal interactions you have had with people. Unfortunately, situations like these happen to all of us and forgiveness is often a tough...

I know it is a touchy subject, but as someone who is Christian, young, and went to public school, I thought it couldn't hurt to share with people that going to public school didn't corrupt me, change me, or mess up - it actually showed me the beauty of witness. This is the experience God gave...

I haven't read the replies to this thread yet, but I wanted to share my brief opinion. Many people will probably disagree with me strongly on this; however, I am just speaking from experience. I don't want to argue or fight with anyone. I am 21 years old, recently graduated from college, and...

KARI JOBE.

Welcome, Marcie! I hope you enjoy CC. God bless :D

Thank you for your reply. When I would go to mass when I was younger because of family, I would always feel weird about the Nicene Creed. I am just sharing what my heart's instinct is, and someone may feel completely different which is okay. But, I always felt like the Nicene Creed and other...
