(This poem was inspired by the many Atheists I've posted with over the past few years on Christian forums. It comes from my heart, and it took only a few minutes to write.) Forgive me Lord, the only God creator of Light for offering misguided, longing love to those who cannot find...

Among both the Christians and the Muslims here, what do you think? Is Rifqa Bary truly afraid for her life? Or is she just a misguided teen who has run away from home?

The news is now focusing on a young Kenyan teenager, Caster Semenya, who recently took the gold medal in the women's 800-meter world championship. It would seem she was born with both sexes, and those defeated in the race want her title taken away on the charge she is more male than female...

Should we tear it down? The message on this famous American image reads: The recent barrage of emails in my inbox, many from fellow Christians, call for the deportation of hundreds of thousands of of the "wretched refuse" that have come here from mainly Mexican and Cuban shores. How can we...

Please pray for our neighbor who died of unknown causes in his home today. He was only 58 and in very good health. His son found him and his other children live in other states. His lived with his wife, and they were lifelong Christians. They've lived next door to us for over twenty years...

I once had a muslim friend tell me they reject Christianity mainly because of our trinity doctrine. God is one, which is the fundamental root of Judaism as well. Monotheism is what distinguished the children of Abraham from all others. Yet, in both the old testament and the Qur'an, God...

What do we mean when we say we are Christian? I first began reading the gospels, and I noticed just how foreign the teachings of Jesus were to the topics we most discussed in our church (at the time a non-denominational, charismatic church). I began to wonder why the Christianity I was taught...

I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I've not posted on many forums, but of the ones I have, I've only ever gone by rahmiyn or most often my first name Bev. I live in Orlando, Florida, am married, the mother of four and grandmother of five. The best way I can describe my faith is to say...
