    Is this common

    Thanks for all the replies. There was definately no guilt tripping that I picked up in the email. It was a more how are you going, hope everything is ok, We miss seeing you and the kids and if there is a problem, we are here to help. I thought it was lovely. It is an evangelical style church...

    Is this common

    I am feeling quite warm about my newish Church, and not sure if this is normal but I haven't attended for 3 straight weeks due to some major things happening and this morning, I received an email from the Ministers wife making sure everything is ok, offering any assistance and to call if I am...

    Anglican Phone Apps

    Hi All In this new year naturally my New Years Resolution is to have a closer relationship with God. Anyway, I have been looking for phone apps to help me in reading the daily office in line with the Liturgical Calender plus listening to sermons from Anglican Churches. What (If Any) apps that...

    Supid Question, Baptism / Confirmation

    Hi Guys and Girls Sorry for this stupid question. I have been baptized Anglican but not confirmed. TBH Its only recently, the last year or so that I have really come back to the Church after not going through my teenage years and then coming back. It's amazing how things change when you have...

    Stressed and don't know what to do

    Thank you all for your support and reading your comments and speaking to God is being very helpful. My stress levels are coming down day by day as I am seeing things being accomplished and things beginning to fall into place. I have sat down with my wife and spoke to her about the issues...

    Stressed and don't know what to do

    Sorry all, I don't really like complaining but i really need to talk and get help with my current struggles. I generally would sit down with my minister but I have just started at a new Church so do not feel that comfort at the moment. I have a lot of issues with my son (behaviour and school...

    Should I confront a brother?

    If your friend doesn't believe they have done wrong, then I would just have them removed from your life.You have offered the hand of reconciliation and forgiveness and they have not shown you the same respect. Spend some quality time with God and focus on your own healing. You have done all...

    Church Advice

    Thanks all, I just came back from the service, was really good. My Son had a ball and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. It was only me and my kids and we all enjoyed it. It seems like a real family orientated Church ans I have a good feeling of this being my new regular Church. I...

    Nauru

    Sorry but if we can deter people from getting on that boat and risking their lives i'm happy. If every single person who would have gotten on a boat decided to fly instead and claim asylum that way, I would be content with that result. Flying into Australia is much safer than getting on an...

    Church Advice

    Thanks Albion The Church has been approved by the Diocese Bishop Brian Farran which does give me some comfort. I have had a good look at the website ANeW Church and have sent them an email, (awaiting a reply).

    Church Advice

    Thank you all for your advice. My main focus is on my kids at this point to get them engaged with Christ and start building their relationship with Him. As i went to a Baptist school, I am familiar with that style of teaching, being a more informal style which probably helps relate to kids more...

    Nauru

    Sure, to a point I agree, the Introduction of TPV's and the decrease in boats couldn't be conclusive evidence of working, but i believe a huge coincidence that when TPV's were introduced the boats slowed to a trickle in a short time, and once scrapped, the boats became a flood in no time...

    Nauru

    I think the Pacific Solution should never have been removed. Speaking with a current Liberal MP (Who i should keep Nameless) mentioned before Nauru was brought back that even the full Pacific Solution reinstated would not stop the flow of boats in the short term, but the main issue isn't and...

    Church Advice

    Hi All. I am conflicted and need some advice about my local Church. Well I currently go to a church by myself due to the fact that most in the congregation are over 70, no kids at all (except the odd occasion when i bring my son) and my wife really doesn't go to Church. (I am hoping will...

    Is Auricular Confession a must to be a truly catholic (small c) church?

    I don't think it's about making things complicated nor forcing people into confession but my view is that asking for an overall forgiveness for all sins may be all well and good, and scripturally sound but I believe a more critical look at our sins through a one on one confession would be of...

    Is Auricular Confession a must to be a truly catholic (small c) church?

    Well, from my point of view being baptised Anglican but never really growing up in Church and only just finding Church again a few months age, I like the idea of confession. The confession of sins in thought, word and Deed that we confess before communion is good, and i agree for smaller day...
