    Is it wrong

    If your playing of WOW is not causing you to stumble in your Christian walk, then no, I don't think its wrong. That said - the fact that you are questioning your use of prayer regarding this game to me is a sign that it could become a problem for you. I would advise you to spend some time in...

    I can't find a good denomination for me!

    When I left the church, I was striving for that personal relationship that you speak of. Maybe I wasn't applying myself as others have mentioned, but honestly - I was going through the motions and I wasn't being spiritually fed. My advice would be to seek out bible-teaching churches that focus...

    Different denominations prefer different bible translations?

    I attend a Free Will Baptist church - we use KJV exclusively on Sundays. The Sunday school teacher uses NKJV. When I asked my pastor to recommend a translation he mentioned those two I just mentioned or the NASB.

    Telling Christian family that I want out...

    The bible clearly teaches Christians that we are not to be unequally yolked. Until VERY recently I was unequally yolked. I am a Christian and my DH was not. I knew going in that my DH was not Christian and I was okay with that, but it was definitely something we struggled with for a good number...

    What kind of Baptist are you?

    voted freewill baptist. It just happens to be the church I am at. I'm not sure I'd call myself freewill baptist - or give myself any label at this point yet.

    How would you have handled this

    yes a friend had pointed this out to me. The Holy Spirit was definitely already present otherwise I would've run off at the mouth. My mama-bear instincts tend to get the better of me much of the time!

    I'm jumping ship

    Welcome, I've recently jumped shipped as well... Like you I was socially liberal and very conservative in my own personal life. I'm noticing though that as I grow deeper in my faith that I'm becoming more socially conservative as well... to the point where I was no longer feeling welcome at a...

    How would you have handled this

    because I didn't. Not really. I didn't. We were in the pediatrician's office Monday afternoon for my kids appts. (aged 10 months and 4) Anyhow, this older woman came in with her teenage (I want to say grand-daughter) She seemed very put out that she even had to be there, gave the...

    Thank you everyone for the well thought out replies. After a lot of prayer I was baptised on Sept. 14th.

    Recipe for a strong and HAPPY marriage

    we took what was called "marriage prep" classes. (we were married in the Catholic church) Personally I liked them because it gave us talking points to discuss... It was like a retreat setting (over the course of a few afternoons OR you could take a weekend) There were talks on finances...
