I have another thing to tell you all I just went to Rapture Forums, and he is reopening tomorrow after he told us it is closed permanently.
Where did you see that because I dont see anything stating that.

I think we all need to give Chris a big virtual hug when it opens back up.

Oh, that…….:D

A little surprised, but happy. I did not like how it closed without notice, but I also understand the stress Chris has been under, and needed a break. Managing folks like me can be challenging, just ask my wife….:eek:
He should have just stated he wanted to take a break, but not come back on to state permanently closed. That got people upset, and a person needs say what you mean and mean what you say. I wonder if he got word that Adrian is thinking about starting his own forum.

A hearty AMEN to that. I guess we all do things sometimes in the moment that we later reconsider. Doesn't feel nice to just have the rug yanked out from under you though. Creates future trust issues. I'm looking forward to the Announcement thread tomorrow night, some 'splainin' would be helpful at this point.

Perhaps it's a Romans 8:28 moment. We also found this forum and the wonderful brothers and sisters here :)

Howdy to all y'all newcomers from another forum.

So... The rapture forum vanished suddenly... Without notice... And y'all are left behind? :LOL:

Sorry. Couldn't pass it up.

So... Welcome to the forum.

The Singles Forum, despite the name, has over the years evolved into the default chill forum where people married and single can hang out and chat about all kinds of things. You'll see a lot of single-related threads, but also a lot of other topics that have nothing to do with singles specifically. Stop by and chat sometime.

The Miscellaneous Forum, by its very nature and definition, has become the other default chill forum.

The Bible Discussion Forum has become a place where people yell at each other a lot and do research on innovative ways to call each other "not a REAL Christian." It is recommended to avoid it unless you have a very thick skin.

The only other thing you need to know here is... Never, ever, EVER start a conversation about music when the Lynx is nearby. Lynx will talk you half to death about anything music related, and then talk you half to death again, so... three quarters to death? Anyway, avoid music topics around Lynx. Trust me.

What type of music do you like Lynx? I play Mandolin, sometimes my two uncles and I get together, two mandolins and a guitar. A bit of Celtic or Gospel music. Good to meet you :)

Oh man, I would LOVE to have some more celtic gospel music! All I have right now is one sole album, Robin Mark: Revival in Belfast. Can you recommend any good contemporary Celtic Christian albums?

Rapture Forums
Rapture Forums is currently closed at this time, BUT will re-open again on Friday 5/12/2023 in the early evening some time.
When Rapture Forums re-opens look for an Announcement thread with more information.
Thank you.

I was the same name there as here. This is good news.:)

There's a lot of good music on youtube. Whatever tune/ song you're looking for it's there. We sometimes put a little tune on there as well :)

Tried that. Didn't work. Maybe I was using the wrong search terms.

Got any names of singers or groups? I just need a place to start.

There's a hymn I was liking at the moment. To the tune called 'Leaving Lismore'. There's a nice version of it called 'Mallaig Sprinkling Song' by a singer called Kirsten Easdale on youtube. God Bless, hope this helps :)

Rapture Forums? Sounds like a fun place. I might want to check it out when it comes back online.

You probably know about the Gettys. They're style isn't totally Celtic in most of their songs, but they are from Ireland I think so they have the accent. And some do have a Celtic sound to them.
