Oh, and this "irrational obsession" that "we" have is neither irrational or an obsession. We have seen firsthand the dangers of the HA and TMM. We are looking to prevent others from being hurt and abused in the same fashion that we were. Because of this, we are doing what we can to ensure that...

Why thank you, sjt1979, for the single post that you have posted on this forum. Welcome to Christian Forums by the way. To set the record straight-- First of all, I went to the internship, graduated, went to college, and am currently working on my MSW. As well, I have a full time job in...

Hello friends, I am not sure of how many of you have taken your youth group to an Acquire the Fire conference or any other Teen Mania event, but I wanted to give you some information. When I was a kid, my youth group went to ATF in Nashville, TN every year. Eventually, I "felt the calling"...

F4C, My story is posted on the website. I can copy and paste it, if necessary here. OR, you can go and read the hundreds of true stories that are on the website, rather than just mine. I am very well aware of who created the site and who is behind it. But, thanks for the information. I also...

I was an intern in 2001. I would highly suggest one research the place before you attend. My Teen Mania Experience

Heaven forbid you have a life outside of CF Erwin! What were you thinking? ;) It wasn't the apocalypse, so it really isn't a big deal.

I understand the point of Gen Ed classes. I know that about 80% of Freshman come into school with no idea what they want to do. Gen Ed classes give a taste of each major/minor or college. But, still...

August- October Classes: Intergenerational Family Therapy Models Psychopathology and Marriage and Family Therapy (I am a Master's degree student earning my MA in Marriage and Family Therapy)

I feel ya! I hated Gen Ed courses in college--- they are the reason my GPA was not as high as I would have liked it to be. Just think, though... once you finish undergrad, if you choose to go on to grad.... during grad there are no gen ed courses--- you take only what you want to take in...
