    How often does your LCMS Church celebrate the Lord's Supper?

    My LCMS has three services; a contemporary acoustic service on Saturday night, a traditional service at 8:30 am on Sunday and a contemporary service with all the bells and whistles at 11 am. All three services have communion.

    Is one of your spiritual gifts the gift of discernment? It is one of mine, though it is one of the lesser ones I have. Still, when a person has a very strong negative vibe or whatever you want to call it surrounding them, I get this feeling too.

    I've had issues with turning both 30 and 40 so I'm sure that when I get closer to 50 I'll probably have a major meltdown. I do not like birthdays at all, but I try to remember what my husband says. He says it's better than the alternative and I suppose that's true.

    Okay, here's one. I found out after I got married that if my husband has to go to the bathroom and he's outside doing something, he'll just kind of step around a building or something and go. I find that to be so incredibly trashy, but no matter how much I've griped about it he has not stopped...

    I've mentioned on here several times about my terrible insomnia which I've had for as long as I can remember. I'm currently seeing a naturopath and we're working on trying to figure out the right supplements that will let me finally sleep most nights. In trying to find the right thing, we tried...

    Help! I love being married, what should I do?

    Oh poo! Maybe I've done something wrong here. I am very hard to live with, but I managed to find a guy who puts up with all my craziness and has done so for 16 years. I've have been an absolute pill for the last week. I've been mean, nasty, belligerent... and what does he do? He comes and gives...

    That picture is so very cool, Lizabeth! I feel the same way about the world out beyond our own.

    It is beautiful here too. Unfortunately, I've been putting off some housekeeping for at least a couple of weeks so I'm kind of stuck inside trying to get caught up. Hopefully, I'll get to take a walk around my neighborhood this evening.

    I'm not sure if age has much to do with it. I've felt that way off and on since I was about 10. I'm okay right now, but I'm also on a gazillion mood enhancing supplements so...

    Are women more in favor of divorce than men?

    Really? Did you actually read what I posted because your answers are do not appear that way at all? Particularly the part that I bolded and colored in. Color me confused.

    Are women more in favor of divorce than men?

    Really, AL? You make some really interesting and provocative threads but on this one... Son, I am disappoint. Anyway, I'm only going to give some anecdotal evidence, but I would say that this situation is probably a pretty good summation of how this kind of thing generally works. When...

    Describe the person above you in one word!

    Blunt (I don't mean that as an insult, either. You're one of my favorite posters here, AL.)

    Would you leave these kids home alone overnight?

    That's awesome! Glad it went well. :)

    Would you leave these kids home alone overnight?

    It looks fine to me. I like the sanity check thing. If you decide to go ahead and go through with it I hope you have a great time. And the kids too getting to play grown up.
