  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

thanks I read it too, anything else. Not that popular of a subject I guess.

Jerry Bridges has several titles on spiritual fruit and covered humility too. You'll find others here.

Currently reading (among several others) "Parables" by John MacArthur.

Also studying ""All New Square Foot Gardening", an updated edition of Mel Bartholemew's original work.

How did you like the gardening book?

How did you like the gardening book?

It's quite interesting. It gives a lot of information about how many of each vegetable to plant depending on the size of your family. And I think planting by the square foot makes it easier to keep up with the gardening. I've found myself reading from the beginning, then jumping around through various chapters, then going back and continuing where I left off. It's a good source of information and offers various plans for planting as well as constructing raised beds, etc.

I'm glad you liked it and appreciate the feedback. I've contemplated it in the past. I'll pick it up when it goes on sale and look for a copy in the library.

We've started a new thread for 2024 in the prepping forum. You're welcome to join. We love green thumbs!

I ordered "The End of the World According to Jesus of Nazareth" by Jeff Kinley from Amazon and it arrived today. Hope to start reading it tomorrow.

Sounds good! (Let us know if you like the book?)
I like Jeff Kinley. Recently read his book "As It Was in the Days of Noah". Was good.

Ever watch "The King is Coming" show, hosted by the late Ed Hinson?
Jeff Kinley hosts it now (runs on NRB TV). He makes prophecy easy to understand. (I like it that way!) :blush:

I'm having so many problems that I can't read any books! But I signed up for Life Alert.
Sounds like a wise decision :oldthumbsup:

(I live in a house with alot of stairs ... do them constantly ... and am thinking of signing up for a similar type device.)

Ya think? LOL
If you really want to be humbled. A.W. Pink's Exposition on the Book of Hebrews should do the trick.

I don’t want to be humbled necessarily, but I want to live humility.
