I'm reading the book "The Single Issue" by Al Hsu at the moment. So far it seems that Hsu rejects the idea that having the gift of singleness will cause you to be completely happy and satisfied as a single, not struggling with temptation or desire to have children. So, what does it mean to...

... about a church or denomination that is different to your own. It's easy! I'll start: I am impressed with the massive missions programs that many mainline churches run (Presbyterians, for example). They're like, all over the world! That's a good thing :)

Hi guys, just a question out of interest: Do you have a young adults ministry in your church? What is it like? And how does it relate to the youth ministry? We don't yet have a young adults ministry in our church (I'm the only young adult in it at the moment), but it's a possibility for the...

Not a few people from our wonderful state of Victoria have said they'd love to catch up in Melbourne some time. So... is there a particular month that suits us better than others..? And what about venue? I was thinking like a big park somewhere, where we could have a BBQ and whatever else we...

Sometimes we go through times in our lives which I would call "wilderness experiences". Times of turmoil, brokenness, transition, confusion, barrenness, or all of the above. For those who are in this place, or have been there, you'll understand what I mean. What is God teaching you through...

What do you think about our PM saluting President Bush? Big deal? No biggie?

... I'm here for the rest of the day! And for quite a while after that ;)

I'd really like to change my CF username.. but it costs tens of thousands of blessings! Anyone know how I could acquire enough blessings to do it?

Does anyone else enjoy watching Pride & Prejudice? I'm referring to the movie-length version starring Kiera Knightley; I haven't seen the other version yet... I've watched it over, and over, and over again... I think it's mainly because I identify so much with several of the characters...

The topic of body shape keeps coming up in various threads, so, how much do you think your weight will play a part in your relationships, if at all? Anyway, see poll :)

See poll :) I donated blood for the first time today, as part of an effort by all the churches in my town to double our town's donation level this year. It wasn't so bad... I actually enjoyed it a bit ;)

How much do we singles all need prayer! So... Post a prayer for the person who posted before you! I'll start by praying for all of us. :prayer: Dear Lord, I lift up to you all the singles here on CF... Thanks that we can help and support each other. Help all of us, Lord, to navigate this...

What can we do with our love of romance while we are single? I just love listening to romantic songs by the old crooners like Nat King Cole and Dean Martin... I also don't mind a good-old romantic comedy or chick flick (as long as it's not tooo mushy). :blush: But do you reckon it's healthy...

A few of my friends have joined online dating sites recently, which got me thinking... isn't it being a little 'desperate'? Are we trying to 'hurry God up' by doing those sorts of things... or should we be realistic and say that if we hope to find someone we can relate to, then we're...

Hi everyone!I'm interested in learning some Filipino Christian songs, in Tagalog/Cebuano. I heard some when I was there, and would love to find the lyrics. Do you know of any websites where I can find the lyrics? One song I would like to have the lyrics for is called "Basta Ikaw". Salamat :) Rachel

What is a good reason to leave one's church? I'll say it first: I never want to be a church-hopper. I have gone to my church for 4 years, and before that I was part of another church for 12 years. I believe in being firmly rooted in a Bible-believing church and sticking with it through good...

What are you supposed to be doing when you're on CF? Me, I'm supposed to be studying. I'm studying for a Bachelor of Arts at Bible College. My studies are online, so instead of doing assignments I often find myself wasting time reading matchmaking threads :P

Ok, I'm sorry if this has been discussed in another thread, but frankly I don't have time to go through 101+ pages of threads to find out! (What a popular section this is becoming!) What are your thoughts on the age-old question: what is an appropriate age gap between people who are dating...

My Bible college lecturer bought up a really interesting question the other day... it sort of ties your brain in knots... "Do we worship our worship?" In many churches I have noticed that sometimes we idolize our worship, and glorify the experience of worship, rather than glorifying the...
