A common teaching I have come across is that after salvation, we undergo the process of sanctification (growth/being made into the image of Christ). My question is what makes this necessary - when ultimately we are all raised with restored and sinless bodies, in perfect communion with God. What...

When you are interested in someone, do you prefer getting to know them through dating or a friendship? In other words, do you prefer being approached and learning more about them through the dating experience, or creating a friendship and developing it in a less concrete manner? Personally, my...

Anyone read a lot of sci-fi fantasy? When you get into a new one, are you more interested in learning about the world or the main character in it? Is it more important to you that the protagonist is dynamic or the setting? I don't mind simple characters as long as the world is fleshed-out and...

I'm world-building for a story set in an alternate 1940's Europe, and I've now reached a point where I need to come up with a flag for the main country.

Are there any other writers out there? How do you deal with the no-mans land that is writer's block? I've been a victim of it for basically over a year because I can't seem to hold onto the initial inspiration that comes with a new plotline. Usually I can overcome the short-term block by...

A brother posted this in another thread; but as I began to respond, I realized that it really deserves it's own topic: I've tried this strategy in the past, and it was a horrible experience. It really made me understand the saying, "Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at...
