    How do I Control the Uncontrollable?

    Hi Mel, I'm so sorry to hear what you and your daughter are going through. Sounds like she's hurting a lot and doesn't know how to deal with it. I totally understand that you are scared by her suicide notes. I hope there are more qualified ppl around here who'll know what to do. It sounds like...

    How do I Control the Uncontrollable?

    Hi Mel, I can't give you much advice because I'm not parenting a teenager (my son is only 3) but your post sounded so much like one my mother could have written about me some years ago that I thought I'd write a little bit from the point of view of a (former) uncontrollable daughter. I...

    Okay I feel Horible

    Hi Megan, sorry to hear you're having such a rough time. You are not an awful mother though!!! All your being there won't help your kids if you can't feed them. When I was sick as a kid I didn't care much if my mom, my dad or my babysitter was around - as long as there was someone who...

    The Matt Redman thread!

    Just some additional Matt Redman and Tim Hughes ressources: Some articles from the heart of worship website that was closed down were published in a book called "The heart of worship files". In addition to the books by Matt Redman that were already mentioned my personal favourite is his...

    how do you explain an absent father?

    Thanks for your reply. I did that. He thought for a moment and then said: "But the other kids have another dad as well...Why don't I?" So far I've been able to get him off the subject. But he keeps on coming back to it. And he's really stubborn when he wants to know something... :) But...

    how do you explain an absent father?

    Hi everyone, I'm new here and I'd really appreciate to get some advice. I'm a single mother of a 3-year-old boy. His father and I split up when I was pregnant and we haven't been in touch since then. Lately my son has begun to ask me why he doesn't have a dad and I'm really at a loss how to...

    Women are forbidden to teach publicly

    If you want to get the view of some who allow women in ministry I'd recommend "Why not women" by Loren Cunningham and David Joel Hamilton. hatschie

    The Matt Redman thread!

    Well, among my Christian friends in Germany everyone knows Matt Redman and Tim Hughes... and most ppl have never heard of Chris Tomlin... And they both (the English guys) played Chris Tomlin songs at their summer worship conference and ppl thought they were their songs... So I guess it might not...

    Let the poor pay their fair share of taxes.

    I certainly agree that children need to be taken out of their families if they are in danger of being harmed (by neglect, abuse etc.). But Sharp was also talking about single parents who have children out of wedlock or are divorced for reasons he doesn't agree with. If that's (as he claims)...

    Let the poor pay their fair share of taxes.

    What a wonderful idea... Let's take children away from all the parents we deem unfit to raise them according to our standards... Wait - we've been there done that in my country... And while we're at it why not copy some more of Hitler's ideas and sterilize everyone we think shouldn't have...
