    PTSD Episode in Church Today

    Church was extremely triggering for me today, and I’ve needed to have a good cry the whole day (but had six other people, besides my kids, at my house all day). The pastor was preaching that only death can end a marriage, and that divorce for any reason was sin (he doesn’t believe adultery is a...

    “Covenant Marriage” trend

    I have heard a few opinions in the church from people that a second marriage is not valid in the eyes of God if your first husband is still alive (“covenant marriage” believers do not consider anything besides death valid to break up a marriage, and even reject adultery, or an unbelieving spouse...

    I’m a Selfish Little Brat

    Oh, poor me! Oh, poor me! How my body grunts and creaks. I wallow in self pity, Dab the tear drops from my cheeks. Oh, poor me! How I suffer! How the cares that cramp my style, Form a wrinkle down my forehead, Train my lips to never smile. Oh, poor me! Oh, poor me! All the things that could go...

    The Suicidal Christian

    Someone needs to hear this tonight. ❤️ I am going to bare my heart and hold nothing back because God has used my life stories to help others time and time again. As with everyone else who had to endure this, the four months of isolation were hard for me. I am an extreme extrovert to a fault...

    My Mind is at War

    Depression is something I can't seem to escape from, no matter how much I focus on the Lord. I'm really struggling tonight with fleeting thoughts of suicide. I'm so burned out. When I think of suicide it seems peaceful to me; like an answer to all of the pain I carry in my bursting, heavy heart...

    Celebrate Recovery is Idolatry

    Celebrate Recovery, "Girl, Wash Your Face", Jesus Calling, and other popular liberal Christian teachings are really self-worship hidden in a sugar coating of Jesus-isims to fool the church and unbelievers alike. Please be aware. There is a reason the devil is called a snake, and a wolf in...

    Bob Ross the Serial Killer?

    What if Bob Ross was a serial killer, and all his paintings are where the bodies are buried? “We don't make mistakes, just happy little accidents.”

    The Nephilim Might Return

    Nephilim, fallen angels of HUGE size and extreme intellect. What if they were into genetic engineering and created half animal/half human beings? Noah and his family were the only survivors of the flood. Noah’s sons would have been alive during the time of the Nephilim. What if they passed the...

    Where Does the Funding for this Site Go?

    Hey there. I have a question. Several times now I've been publicly shamed in the chatrooms for not paying the $24 per year. I enjoy the fellowship, but my four kids and I live in poverty and all of our bills are paid to the dollar. Every month we are in the negative when it comes to even buying...

    What do men think about dating women with children?

    I am a single mom of four beautiful kiddos. I love the Lord with all of my heart, but I was abused and abandoned by my former husband five years ago. Someday I would love to date again, but with four children I feel like no man would ever date me. I am a joyful, adventurous, happy go lucky woman...

    The Wild Child

    One very important thing I have learned in parenting and from my childhood: Just because your child has a different style/personality/likes/dislikes than you, doesn't make it wrong. :) Abbie was holding my hand at a farm tour yesterday, and she said, "Mommy, why is it that when you're not...

    My Charlie Brown Tree :)

    When I was a little girl, my family lived in a rural area of Ohio. We had five acres of land flanked by corn fields and railroad tracks on all sides. I was in love with nature, as I have always been, and really believed that trees were alive and had personalities and feeling just like people do...

    The White-Out Bottle

    A little white-out bottle, That sits upon my desk, Has just one tiny problem: She covers for the rest. When others make mistakes, And leave such disarray, My little white-out bottle, She makes it go away! She works, and works and works, And does what others don't, But when she needs the help...

    Testimony

    My book's already written, My plot's already set. Upon a cross of torture, My life long needs were met. I hung onto the failing, I grappled to the vain, I jollied in the pleasures, I suffered from the pain. As I lay sick and dying, My body wrecked from sin, A hand from Heaven touched...

    Sought

    Forlorn, forsaken dusty road, She forced her feet to tread, And dabbed a troubled, tear-stained face, Her heart consumed with dread. With shoulders hunched beneath a load, Of sins she often fed, She lived a life devoid of grace, 'Til hope had all but fled. This little lamb, though she was lost...

    Change the Tide

    I wear the mask, But I'm crumbling I bear this load But I'm stumbling A bleeding soul You will not see It's easy being all But me Within these perfect little lies We carve a phantom of our lives So no one cares Yes, no one knows Of painful scars Or hurtful blows Why shouldn't we just wear a mask...
