Please pray for a favorable estimate on the value of my car, so that I can afford to get a good replacement for it. I am a single parent and cannot afford a big downpayment on a new car. This weekend I was hit by a hit-and-run driver, who unfortunately completely destroyed the rear of my car...

okay, the emphasis most people stress is that celebacy is a gift. Okay, but I believe celibacy involves a choice to obey God. For those of us who read the words of Jesus Christ carefully, celibacy is a scriptural choice that avoids the sin of adultery after divorce. I have been divorced, and my...

Okay, I goofed up. How to get the ball rollin' seniors... Hmmm, I am a senior myself, and yet I am single with youngsters at home. And you would have to drag me to seniors events at Church. Because I see them as fuddy, duddy cookies and coffee sessions, with lots of 'peppy' oldsters trying to...

Just by looking at the ages listed on "today's birthday" list of this forum, the average age of the folks on this forum appear to be about 30 something. So it is a lost cause to try to stimulate participation from such a scant group of subscribers. Only option is to recruit friends to come and...

I believe what some would call revival prayer. I also believe revival starts with the individual. Jesus promised us he would always answer the prayer of the righteous, expecially in groups of at least two. God managed to record several messages of hope for those that want to have a vivid close...

I can meet in Kitsap, Tacoma, Parkland, Puyallup, Spanaway. We would just need to find a place. I think my church which is not far off the Tacoma 19th Street exit of Hwy 16 would be open to letting us have a prayer group there.

Hello, I am looking for Christians in the neighborhood of Tacoma/Puyallup/Parkland etc. who want to get together to form a small prayer group where the prayer is about getting into the Presence of God, like way in. I have had a few almost incredible prayer experiences that transcended all my...

Sorry to hear of your wifes leaving. My wife left me 5 years ago, and never came back. It's gut wrenching. What helped me survive was a good Christian couple who had the time hear my story a hundred times over the next two years. Somewhere on one of the other threads I heard someones say...

NeonBlack, avast thar matey! Welcome aboard! Yup we're all as if out to sea, it's rainin' again that is. Sorry, I've been to the 'Commander' movie and am still visualizing the gales. What took ya away from us?

Dear Ms Kylee: You do sound broken hearted. Remember to stay in regular, frequent fellowship with safe and supportive christians during your time of sorrow. God often encourages us through others. I will pray for you now. --desp

ABIC: Susiecool is right, I shouldn't have been so short tempered and rude. I apologize. -desp

I am not sure what you're talking about. However, I like Mr Becke's answer. Also, I am a believer in confessing what shames you, and I always recommend going to a professional christian counselor, especially a pyschologist (they really know the norms of human behavior) and tell him/her what...

No, single men should not be close friends with married women, unless the men or the women are hopelessly unattractive, like with a huge disgusting age difference, or other hideous unattractive disparity. (said sorta with tongue in cheek:) Are these questions really helpful? Or are they just...

Lots of people who are in a pickle say they are trying to understand scripture about divorce when the scripture that they are referring to is so simply stated and easy to understand. And you can undoubtedly find plenty of support from other pro-divorce and remarriage 'scholars', some of which...

I would find (with God's help, ask for it) a good Christian pyschologist or counselor and tell him/her the whole business, then get advice on how to proceed with confessing it to your spouse. You will at least get that sin off your chest when you tell the christian counselor person to person...

For sure, God will never leave you or forsake you. However, If I were you, I would go to a professional Christian counselor, even a professional Christian Psychologist, and tell him/her your story. Eventually the counselor should be able to help you set up a meeting with you and your wife, or...

If I were in your shoes I would not remarry ever. Jesus stated a very plain standard that to remarry when you have been divorced is wrong. Although, if you did remarry, because you are a Christian believer, who would not be condemned by God, you would not lose salvation. But since it is such a...

ABIC: WhatEVER! Please go away! Faaaaaarrr away!

Hello y'all and those who maybe curious about celibacy: I am especially keen on saying something POSITIVE about the experience of being celibate. I am not knocking the marriage bond, but since I am no longer married and have chosen to stay single permanently, I have notice many many...

ABIC: Are you from the south puget sound region? I do believe God starts revival. But according to dozens of accounts it begins with something like what is described in 2 Chronicles 7:14...PRAYER and submission to confession of sins, and turning to God. Check out the book Firefall, which...
