    Oh and you will recieve scorn. When I do I just pray really hard that God would break their hard heart and bring another person into their life to tell them about Christ.

    Well I started by going to Mexico with my youth group, pretty common for churches around here. I would help with the people in the area building stuff. Somehow God has opened all that to the point where I am today. I am part of CMA (Christian Motorcyclists Association) so I witness to bikers...

    Strife in the church

    I feel for ya. The only thing that I would say to do is to follow scripture. Go to her alone, go to her with another, take her before the church leaders. I definately wouldn't want to be in your shoes though but that is what God has told us to do.

    I have a fear of praying outloud

    I too had the same issue. What I had to do was to realize that when I pray I am talking to my best friend and that I can't be concerned with what others think. It was a hard hill to climb but now I am preparing for my first sermon (Lord help me) on October 10. I will be praying for you.

    John 3:16-17 says it all "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him." God created us to have a...

    Oh my

    Try this, I think of praying like a phone call with God, just don't hang up the phone. I know it sound wierd but when I am scared (I get paranoid when it is dark and I hear noises) I just start praying until I fall asleep, I am sure that God doesn't mind. As far as anything further I would...

    When people truly follow God it is exciting but not all people act the way that you mentioned above. Some, although "Christians", do go through bouts of depression and some have to fight the urge to be materialistic daily, everybody has something that they have to deal with. If you have people...

    This reminds me of a childs song I learned in sunday school; Read your bible, pray everyday, and you'll grow grow grow. Something disturbs me though about your post, finding God is not a cure for your illness. It is an eternity long relationship that you are committing to. If what you want...

    Don't want to lose her!!

    Well I was in about the same spot you are in now. I got engaged to a girl and we had sex, long story short, we broke up. I started praying for my future wife and a year later I met someone I really wanted to get to know. We "hung out" for about a year before we started dating. During that...

    How do you witness?

    First, in my opinion, witnessing is showing Gods love to another person with the intent of bringing them to Christ. Second, I am a biker and in prison ministries so I witness to the unloved "low lifes" of the world. I find that when a person is at the pinnacle of their life they think why do I...

    Total Confusion

    As far as knowing what God wants you to do I always ask myself one simple question, "Will this glorify God?" If it is a yes then likely it is from God, if it is anything else then pray about it and seek wise counsel before even considering it further. Some things like choosing what cereal to...

    Please read :)This is what happened to me on the plane!

    He isn't normally as obvious in my life as he was in your situation. All I have to say if that he know what you need and obviously knew what you needed to hear.

    Is faith not up to me? Was I predestined to Hell?

    God doesn't want anyone to go to hell, that is a decision that each person makes on thier own to turn away from Christ. As far as faith goes, the only thing you need to have faith in is that Christ is the son of God who came down to save you from your sins. If you can do that you're set. If...

    Christians and drinking alcohol... What do you believe?

    I believe that I can drink alcohol if I want as long as I don't get drunk or fall into sin. Now if I am with an alcoholic or someone who struggles with it I don't drink because I would be causing them to stumble.
