  • 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

    Anyone else have this problem?

    It can be helpful to some people to 'say it' before you try to write it. Record yourself saying your ideas; record yourself telling any of the story floating around in your head. I've found, often, that when people write they - consciously or not - try to 'sound' different than they think and...

    How do I achieve forgiveness?

    I need advice and prayer support. A few years ago my wife was friends with a woman, and this woman actively tried to break up our marriage. Granted, we had problems and my wife sought her advice. This was not (is not?) a Godly woman. My wife finally realized this woman was a bad choice and...
