  • 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.

    Looking for ideas for new music to check out...

    I just came from Alabama's Youth Evangelism conference. The performer there was Matt Papa, and he was really good. Really powerful lyrics. I got the CD and it is really good.

    I just came back from the Youth Evangelism Conference. If any of you youth directors have not taken your kids to this, you really need to. It is awesome. Great music, great speakers, drama skits, etc... It is really worth the time. In Birmingham, there was a smaller crowd than last year...

    The Holy Spirit and Drinking

    I have mixed emotions when it comes to this topic. Personally I have never thought that drinking was a sin. I see nothing wrong with sitting in your house having a beer with your meal, if you like beer. But, I also believe that anything that affects your witness is a sin. So if I'm in town...

    Ever had a vision or seen an angel?

    At one point in my life, I was closer in my walk with God than I had ever been and been since. When I prayed, it was like God was sitting in front of me, if that doesn't sound dumn. Now this is gonna sound silly, but I was sitting on the back steps at work one day having a real heart to heart...

    Family Devotions: What To Do?

    I think for a 12 year old son, you should really look at the old testament stories about David and his mighty men. Show him how amazing the stories are and how interesting the bible actually is. But don't just read it to them, discuss why David made some of his decisions and how he might have...

    what are baptists main believes?

    As a Southern Baptist, I can tell one some of the things that are debated between us and other religions. Once saved always saved. We don't believe in drinking. We believe in Baptism, not for salvation, but as a public display of faith. Ummmmmm..... We eat alot too. That's about all I can...
