Hello Michelle! I would love to chat with you. Will send you a message.

Amen! :clap:

How wonderful that God removed your obsession. I too struggle with my thoughts. He wants us to come to Him with our needs and to rely on Him. You aren't being annoying. You are doing what you should :hug:

I tried reading one of Joyce Meyer's books. I just didn't like her writing at all. Good to know someone else feels the same way. I do love Beth Moore though. I find her to be very encouraging. I also dislike preachers that "sell" Christianity as a means of prosperity.

The purpose is praise.

Sounds like a very negative experience. I would suggest praying about finding a new church home. Search for local churches in your area, and read their statements of faith to make sure that their teachings align with the Bible. I've visited several churches, and I've been blessed to have...

Plus the fact that in the book of Revelation chapter 20, we read 18I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. 19And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God...

Me personally, I would go to the Evangelical church. I have visited both types of churches, and there is definitely more of a feeling of fellowship and family in the Evangelical church. There are a lot more Bible study options, also. Keep praying on it.

Absolutely pray to God for guidance in choosing a church. And checking out the statements of faith on individual church websites definitely won't hurt, either. In the past, when I was looking for a church, I had a bit of a hard time, even when doing my research. It was only when I...

Going almost 2 weeks without those distractions is pretty awesome (this is coming from someone who logs into Facebook every day!) I agree with the above post. Maybe aim for a shorter period of time. Your heart is totally in the right place. I would suggest starting over, and perhaps for a...

Hmmm... that is a universalist belief, though. I'm hard-pressed to think of a Christian group that believes that. Revelation 20:10: "And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day...

This is a good post. I'm thinking of visiting a UCC soon.

I like this!

I'm confused. You're Jewish but attending a Christian church? I visited your profile and gather that you are Jewish but your family is Christian? Just trying to understand the situation.

Oh wait that isn't a natural disaster - but I made the connection anyway. =0)

Another good one is that God created AIDS to kill the gays.

Sorry if I overreacted. Just feeling a bit overwhelmed. I do know that all of you have good intentions.

Thanks!!
