    Ratings emoticons

    I know we are supposed to "rejoice always", but sometimes a post just makes me sad or angry. I often don't like to speak up so would it be possible or wise to have a sad or angry emoticon (I am old. Is emoticon even used anymore??) for this purpose?

    Bethel music

    Hope that this is okay posted in this forum. I have listened to a major, national, "Christian" radio station for many years. (yeah, I know radio is for old people. I am old!) I give some credit to the music for keeping God in my heart even while I was a prodigal. My concern is that I have...

    Trying to find a song from the early 80s

    For a while in the early 80s I attended a Pentecostal (?) church. I guess that's what you'd call it. The music was great. I'm trying to locate a song we sang. It was something about the army of the Lord. Every one that I've found on Google is not right. It was one of those rousing...

    Prayers for travel and anxiety.

    I read in my Bible that we can pray for anything and our God will answer. Therefore, I ask you to please add your prayers to mine. I am flying on Saturday from California to Florida. I have gotten over the fear of flying, praise God! We have to drive from our location (population of less than...

    Need suggestions for commentators, preachers, teachers.

    During Bible study on Sunday our pastor was talking about false teachers. I was shocked to hear that some of my favorite teachers from the internet, Youtube, and even Bible studies that I've attended are very subtly sneaking things in that are not in tune with what the Bible says. I really...

    Why do unbelievers ask a pastor to do a funeral and then tell him not to mention Jesus?

    Our pastor is asked to officiate many funerals and many of those are non-believers. They tell him not to mention Jesus at all. Of course, he always will find a way to bring up eternal salvation. :) Why do they even ask a pastor to perform the ritual? Seems like anyone could do this. My...

    Please pray for me.

    I would like to ask you to pray for me to overcome my anxiety. It is getting worse as I age. My days are constantly up and down now. Thank you.

    I just want to praise God.

    I was a prodigal for over 30 years. God led me back to him...like the sheep! I love Him so much and am so thankful that He welcomed me home. He was always with me through it all. Hindsight is 20/20. Our God is awesome. <3

    Hello. :)

    Just a little bit about me. I became a Christian in 1982 and joined our local Baptist church. My family and I were very active. After a while we somehow stopped going to church and behaving as Christians should. I spent over 30 years doing my own thing. I didn't, however, give up on God and...

    I stand in amazement!!

    I've been....um....let's just say, "away" for a very, very long time.....about 21 years. Don't get me wrong, I never stopped believing. I just spent a lot of years doing all the wrong things. Some very bad things. Well, the Spirit started really working on me. Not sure when, but I suddenly...

    Hi! I could sure use some help!

    This place has completely overwhelmed me! There are soooo many forums!! Forgive me if I've posted this in the wrong one. Here's my story: My children, husband, and I were all baptized in the Southern Baptist church in 1983. We attended for a couple of years then moved to a spirit filled...
