  • 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

    Does my anxiety disappoint God..

    Thank you Sailor Kenshin, and thank you everyone for the kind and relateable replies. It's wonderful that our heavenly Father has given us such a big family, from all over the world :). It's comforting to know I have brothers and sisters in Christ even though I'm an only child (for now!).

    weird or relatable?

    This is interesting.. many of the questions your minds seem to be raising are questions you'll find in the philosophical system of nihilism. I sometimes struggle with existential nihilism. I've heard Christian apologists talking about it, perhaps listening to what they have to say could help...

    Emotional Numbness

    I've been dealing with bouts of feeling nothing. It's annoying because I'll be depressed and want desperately to feel something, to cry so I can get it out of my system, but I can't! So I just get stuck with it, it's horrible. I find if I do something else or talk about it with someone, it can...

    Panicing about Aging / Death

    I've struggled with the fear of death and had panic attacks because of it. It's truely horrible to realize your mortality (in the flesh at least). Something that I had to get my head around was that death isn't the end, it's just going from one place to another. Like going through a door. If...

    Does my anxiety disappoint God..

I think I'd have to agree with everyone saying God is pleased with what we do based on what we can do. Sometimes when I think of what others do in the...

    Thank-you for the replies. Sorry I hadn't replied, I forgot my password to this forum and then I had to reset my email account because I forgot that password lol. Since writing this, I've had my prayers answered and my friend is speaking to me again. Currently in my life I'm dealing with...

    Does my anxiety disappoint God..

    In the past yeah. Although I've found God and His Word to be what helps me to overcome things more than what therapy did.

    Does my anxiety disappoint God..

    Hello I'm new here.. I'm usually just a spectator on forums and never really get involved but I've decided I needed to talk things over with fellow siblings in Christ. Here's the worst of it: I feel like I can't leave the house without my husband because I'm anxious I'll get sick...
