    Which Charities...?

    Okay, I'm not sure that this is the proper forum, but I'll start here and maybe move to others later... I would like to know, preferably from the most cynical among us, what charitable organizations that they find.. a) the most trustworthy b) the most important or worthwhile I'm...

    Looking for secular music with...

    Man, what happened to this forum? This used to be one of the most popular forums on CF. Anyway, thanks for the input. I've come up with about 150 songs, not including all the possibilities by groups that have several such as U2, Linkin Park, 3 Doors Down, and crossover groups like 12 Stones...

    Looking for secular music with...

    thanks guys, there are several I hadn't thought of on here. Once I get a larger list, I'll post it complete. btw - "profound" lyrics will work. anything to make christians think about how they are REALLY executing Jesus' teachings. It's helpful if all the lyrics are clean, but not...

    Looking for secular music with...

    I haven't been here a while so I hope I don't step on any toes in this forum. I am trying to compile a list of popular, highly recognizable secular songs that either have, or could be construed as having a spiritual message. They can be motivational, uplifting, socially conscious...

    Shot in the dark...looking for...

    I live in the KC area, but I have an old friend that I think lives in Boerne, TX and I would like to get in touch with her. So, here's hoping that someone knows her and can have her contact me. Her name is Tiffany Muenzler, but it may be Bockerstette now. If you know her, ask her to email...

    Not sure if this will do anyone any good...

    Well here's the deal. I am a complete failure. And I'm not saying that so much to solicit pity or empathy or whatever. Actually, I'm hoping that it might be encouraging to someone else to know that failure isn't the worst thing that can ever happen. This story is much longer than I'll...

    To reiterate a previous question...WHAT is not in line with Scripture? We need some examples.

    Gifts for ex spouses "from the kids"

    Even though I mostly agree that there shouldn't be a problem, there is a problem and I'm glad that there are some dissenting opinions. Seebs, you were right on. She thinks I'm still to close to the ex because I choose to do things with the kids, even if it means that she will be there also...

    Gifts for ex spouses "from the kids"

    Well, I was going to be remarried...but I think this issue is going to change all that unfortunately. I have always taken the kids to buy their mom something, with MY money...my girlfriend thinks I'm too close to her and refuses to see that it isn't for the ex, it's for the kids. I'm really...

    Gifts for ex spouses "from the kids"

    My girlfriend doesn't even think I should take them, no matter whose money it is. She thinks I'm doing it for the ex, not for the kids. The kids share equal time and they are 9 and 4.

    Gifts for ex spouses "from the kids"

    With mother's day approaching, the kids would want to get my ex-wife a gift, which I would have to buy, of course. What is the consensus here on the appropriateness of this? She is re-married. What if it would cause problems with MY current spouse?

    So what IS the right way to break up?

    No matter what the break up victim might think (I know there are exceptions), most of the time it's just as hard on the breaker upper. It gives me more empathy for all the girls who've cheated on me. I think they felt trapped, but knew that I was trying...just wasn't good enough. So instead...

    So what IS the right way to break up?

    You bet! I totally have to be deceitful for the next two days at least. It's incredibly hard, and I'm sure when we have the conversation, she's going to bring up the fact that I've been telling everything is okay. And she's making it tough, she's really trying to get me to say stuff about...

    So what IS the right way to break up?

    This is what I was talking about. I was all ready to break up with my girlfriend last night. We've had a really rough past couple of weeks, WAY rougher than I think a couple should have after only 3 months of dating. But the past couple of days it seems as if she is making a conscious effort...
