Hi, Seeker, what a friendly post to start things off here on CF! As a seeker, you probably are wondering about many theological questions. Here's a thorny question: why did the Father send his beloved Son to suffer and die? Is it because it had to be that way--there was no other way? Do you...

Hi, Oceanmoon, It is a privilege to answer your question, the first one, "Why did Jesus die on the cross?" You see, Oceanmoon, there is something in the world called the "sin problem." Ever since Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, when the two of them sinned, men have been born with a sin...

One type of toxic relationship is being with a narcissist. The narcissist suffers from narcissistic personality disorder. You, his partner, can suffer (as I did) from narcissistic abuse syndrome (see Wikipedia.org). If this is the kind of toxic relationship you think you are in, feel free to...

To: The Last Child (sounds like "The Lost Child" yikes!) From: Albertine Retrouvee Last Child, if you send me a private message, I can send you my e-mail address and we can start up a big chat! I also have unlimited nationwide long distance, which I am pretty sure would be easier for you...

Thu. 11/07 Dear Last Child: Hi! My name is Albertine Retrouvée and I am a Christian woman living in Chicago, IL. I read what you posted here and I like you! You know, a nurse friend told me she prayed for me that I would find a friend to talk with that was “on my level.’’ And you seem very...

The 67-year-old man and I met in an Italian class. He was a platonic friend. And as for his faith, he was what is called a lapsed Catholic. He has since had a stroke and has not come to faith even now. Don’t these people know God tries to ‘’get their attention’’ with events like strokes?...

I'm single, but did I "choose to be single?" I had a few offers, but I didn't feel like marrying those men, so I didn't. When I was 35 I did the San Francisco Marathon. I was in training and wore shorts every day. An older man (age 67) started asking me to marry him. He had a lot going for...
