    prayer request

    My son just got braces on and they really hurt. Also he is going to have to get a tooth pulled next month and is very unhappy about it all. Please pray for him to get through all these hard things with a good attitude. He is having a hard time. Thank you.

    Please someone help me....

    Pray and study what Jesus teaches, then put it into practice is the basis of being a Christian. For some physical healings, keep praying, eat healthy, get exercise, and maybe see a doctor if it's serious. There are community health clinics that are supposed to be affordable according to your...

    prayer request

    Please pray for the ladies in charge of my kid's team. They allow bullying and sometimes are bullies themselves, and we are all working to stop that more and more, but sometimes the head coach threatens to kick the good kids off the team when one of the core values is "inclusion." Please pray...

    Religious Superstitions

    If it's on the internet, it must be true! or not. There is a reason there was a time called the "Dark ages". There was obviously a very corrupt church period in history. There's a New Testament Bible verse that says if something feels like sin to one person, but not to you, leave them alone...

    Church Clothes?! Church needs to modernize!

    Maybe you can tell your church leadership or board about the welcoming committee not appearing so "welcoming." If they are rude and don't want to change, you should reconsider your membership there. Sometimes the attitudes are too entrenched or there are behind the scenes politics, if you follow...

    The Well You Tube Video

    To be brutally honest, I don't like seeing the half dressed people reminiscent of mud wrestling (strip club connotations). And 6 minutes is a long video. I don't even want to click on it.

    American Gender: Missionary Window

    Donald Trump and his companies are running the Miss USA pageants according to Wikipedia. It isn't a practice in evangelism or American democracy. Ever see his Apprentice show or hear his presidential rantings? He is not a pillar Christian, just read his Twitter.

    Entertainment Appropriate for Christians

    If he isn't Christian, you'll probably be sitting next to him at your computer while he watches what he wants. I think the tamer family friendly or non-fiction educational things would be too boring. Me personally, when I have free time, my hobby is robotics that I help teach kids. Maybe you can...

    What's the right thing to do?

    When I witness a car accident or crime, I report it and write down the time, date, and relevant information. I would kind of do the same thing in a work situation if I saw something wrong, at least let the head people know you were a witness, which it seems like you did in the end.

    are "christians" (in name and banner) even seeking God?

    Life isn't all about signs and wonders though. I love studying science and engineering, but as Christians, I see it through the Creationist point of view and just gloss over the "billions of years" theories. There is educational value in science but take it with a grain of salt. And there...

    I don't want to settle for a guy but don't want to be too picky..Help?

    You are very young, get your education and then you'll meet a good man with similar interests. I highly recommend going for your Bachelors and even Masters degree in this day and age. Don't settle, you'll be divorced by the time you're 25 if you do.

    This is terrible advice

    dealing with my partner....

    My Pastor has good advice and says men should have men friends and women should have women friends. Your female BF should be your wife only. You'll get into trouble otherwise. It happens too often.

    Seeking advice in current relationship

    To get your mind off a man who your family is against, consider taking a class and adding to your education, get a Bachelors or Masters degree and meet new people maybe that way. The doubts you have are full of red flags.
