  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Should I volunteer in a local Church?

    Well I have many years IT Tech experience, though I've never done any video streaming before. Should I still go for it? And if it's a learning experience for me to do this task, is that good for my faith?

    Christianity that Works

    I'm a fan of Joel Osteen, and I've heard one of Joel's sermons where he says, pray for others as well as your needs. Answered prayers are in God's timings, not our timings. I hope that helps. Lee.
