  • 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

    Diagnosing BPD

    There are some churches out there that have licensed counselors that are also pastors at the church (perhaps in the Biblical Counseling department). Normally you find these type of pastors in bigger churches -- if you are low on money, certainly try that route. For BPD or any other mental...

    bpd spouce

    Yes, my main thing has been to find some sort of "community" for BPD and the people who love them...especially with a Christian focus. That is an element that IS definitely a major part of our lives, and it is nice to be able to openly talk about God and his mercy, grace, and love to get thru...

    My husband has BPD as well. We just found out not too long ago. I was actually drawn to read a book by a Christian man that was abusive to his wife and his journey thru that ("Angry Men & the Women Who Love Them"). In the book it described personality disorders, and it opened my eyes to...

    Support for familes/friends of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD's)

    My husband has BPD, along with a few other Personality Disorders (from what the Dr's told me, they tend to come with other disorders). It has been a challenge to have a loved one with a Personality Disorder, to say the least. I finally had to leave him for a good period of time in order for...
