  • 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

    I don't know if its true

    You don't have to be reformed - you don't have to believe in predestination and election! Plenty of very devout Christians (I include myself in that number) do not believe in that theory. When I read the Bible, predestination and election are not what o see (and I have read the whole Bible, so...

    Seeking Meeting in Minnesota or Midwest

    Unboxed Christian

    Hey everyone! I am an "out of the box" Christian: non-denominational and purposefully "unchurched" as far as the institutional church is concerned! Theologically I would probably be considered somewhere in the Holiness tradition (Wesleyan/Salvation Army specifically), if I was a...

    Have you ever heard of an all-volunteer church?

    Have you heard of the home/simple/organic church movement? Seems like something you might be interested. That's where my ecclesiology lies. I have a lot of resources to share: - Francis Chan's We Are Church website and Letters to the Church book - Most by Frank Viola - Richard Jacobsen's...

    Are there any Christians who have given up TV, Sports, and Entertainment with whom I can fellowship?

    I haven't given up ALL media but I have given up a vast majority. I found the deeper I went in my relationship with Christ, the less interesting and appealing those things are for me! I don't listen to any secular music, watch very little tv (occaisionally food shows, a fishing show, and a...
