  • 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 anyone here not like christian music?

    usually, Christian radio music is pretty trite. it just takes a little ingenuity to find something that you like. search the web or *gasp* go to a bookstore and see what they have.

    downloading music?

    why is there a debate about this? it's illegal to download music that you aren't paying for, unless the artist is giving it away for free. i mean, regardless of legal matters, as Christians, shouldn't it irk us to take something from someone without paying them for it? We should be the FIRST...

    is it right...

    wow. i'm astounded by some of these answers. what we are basically saying is, the church is SO dysfunctional that we cannot seek answers or help there, so we have to come here under cover of anonymity (isn't there something about 'into the light?..."). we come from churches where even and ELDER...

    is it right...

    "we are christians and if one of us is struggling they should be able to come to this forum for advice and not fear condemnation for their struggles but have caring people give their opinions....." isn't this what your church is supposed to be? if someone in your church has a problem, YOU...

    is it right...

    ...to post complaints about spouses on this forum? i'm interested. i'm going to be married soon, but i don't think i would ever DREAM of posting complaints or asking advice on this forum. i mean, God bless you all, but i don't really know you. If I had a problem in my marriage i would talk...

    Improving guitar/singing Skill

    well, play as much as you can...singing and playing at the same time is off-putting for everyone at first. concentrate primarily on the singing part, simplifying your strum pattern until you can do both in rhythm. then, work on a more complex strum. there ARE good Christian resources out...

    CD's: Worship Together!

    i like it when the person keeps it entirely about Jesus. I don't even like the word 'artist' when it comes to worship. perhaps soon we will get tired of trying to do the same thing the world does with a different label on it, and actually do something radically different. i don't think, at the...

    CD's: Worship Together!

    of course, there is something to do with God involved in those cd's too right? I'm less interested in discovering new artists and songs as i am in discovering God.

    I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.

    i think Gandhi would look at this forum, and say pretty much the same thing.

    Metal Churches???

    surely any church should be formed around a mutual love of Jesus, not a mutual love of a particular kind of music? isn't that kind of twisted? the church isn't a social club where we all meet to be entertained and talk about the things we like.

    Worship leaders: How do you handle requests?

    how about if we all requested the verses that the preacher preached from? in the middle of the sermon, we could just shout out "Do Romans 8! I like that chapter!" or...'How about some Psalms?' yeah, ridiculous, isn't it?

    Worship leaders: How do you handle requests?

    i think requests generally come out of personal preference...unfortunately, our corporate times of worship are not supposed to be about personal preference, but where is God leading the church? i've had all kinds of requests...from 'lean on me' to 'He reigns.' it helps when the congregation...
