    Involvement

    This really doesn't fit into the typical outreach or youth ministry. I'm a coordinator for the city's neighborhood watch program. If you know about the neighborhood watch, the majority of the groups stem from religious organizations and mainly consist of older individuals. I'm looking for...

    Publisher

    I have been trying to recollect/edit two novels that I have written for a series. My flash drive where I stored my writing was stolen several months back. I have a hard copy and electronic copies of the story, however I was in the middle of editing it when it was stolen. I'm pretty sure that...

    Tradition???

    I attend a small, Missionary Bapt Church. We average (if we are lucky) about 40-50 people for morning service and about 19 in Sunday School. They are very traditional and resistant in changing the slightest detail of services. For example: we have had several people suggest mixing in a few...

    Sudden Behavior Changes

    I have a 3 (almost 4) month old Chihuahua. I've had her since she was 6 weeks old. She was doing great until the past week or two. She's a very friendly dog. She loves everyone she meets and loves attention. In the past few weeks, she has almost been timid of everything, jumps at the...

    Preacher's Wife vs. Self Ministry

    Our church has been going through a rough time this past year. We lost four members who were pretty much fighting amongst themselves, but tearing the church apart at the same time. Our church is small. We average about 30-40 each Sunday. Last Sunday night there was 8 people in attendance and...

    Co-Worker Woes

    I need help with this work-related issue: I have been an HR Director for a local 2-year college for almost 3 1/2 years now. This past February, our payroll officer left and the VP asked that I take on her duties as well. Therefore from February to August, I have been doing two full-time jobs...

    Room 1408

    Has anyone seen this movie yet? I was grossly disappointed in this film. It seemed as if Stephen King has lost his touch. I wasn't scared the entire time I was watching the film and was thinking "what the heck" the whole time. The reviews said I would be on the edge of my seat. Well, I was...

    Building the Youth & Raising Money

    I attend a small church. We have about 15-20 kids total in church. However their attendance is sparatic. I have several ideas of my own on what the church needs to build the youth. I've shared some with the preacher's wife, who is excited about getting started. However, I was wondering if...

    Signature Sound

    I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Signture Sound's new release "Get Away, Jordan." I like some of the songs on the CD, but I feel that they complete butchered Get Away, Jordan. Of course, that's only my opinion! :D I haven't heard many give the album a good review. If you've seen it or...

    Withdrawing Christian Fellowship

    How do fellow baptists feel about the church withdrawing Christian fellowship from a member based on assumptions? How common is it? Also, I'm interested in knowing how common it is for one person and/or family (other than the pastor & his) running things and monopolizing or politicing within...

    Makeshift Cheesecake

    I wanted cheesecake so bad a few months ago, but all I had was some cheesecake-flavored pudding, so I made it. Then I got to thinking about a strawberry cheesecake. I knew I had some SF jam in the fridge. So I took out about a tbsp of it and popped it in the microwave for a few seconds just...
