    altar calls?

    Does your church do weekly altar calls? What is the purpose? Do people just go up for Salvation? Do they offer it to those who are Saved and need to get right with the Lord again? How about those who are struggling internally and need extra prayer? Just curious.

    Talk to me about adult baptism.

    give it to me straight. I was approached by my pastor tonight and asked about baptism. I’m thinking they wanted to do it at the last “outdoor” fellowship in a couple weeks. I told him that at this point I was just not ready and that I would pray about it as something to do in the spring. I’m...

    http://www.ignatius.com/ViewProduct.aspx?SID=1&Product_ID=2645&SKU=PLC-M&Category_ID=31 I know this is just one of 3-4 that they have. They look pretty good, but I was just wondering what age group they were geared towards and what the format was (cartoon, live children, etc.)

    small prayer request

    We vacationed in South Carolina last week and the trip did not go as planned at all. Anyhow, I believe my 2 year old really felt the tension between me and a close friend... he really is overtired, exhausted, irritable and now has a bad cold and has been running a low-grade fever for the last...

    Biblical Holidays...

    I came across this great book called "Family Guide to Biblical Holidays" It's very Messianic in nature, but a great book to learn about the celebrations that Jesus would've partaken in - lots of crafts, recipes, celebration ideas, etc to use in the home. I came across it on another board and...

    I wasn't here for very long to begin with, but I had a little mini "crisis of faith" last fall and took some time away from all my forums to work things out.
