Maybe we can keep this going, like the "What's on your mind" thread in the Singles area. What are you working on, how is it going, what are your thoughts, etc. I'm working on what will technically be my second novel... although I unpublished my first novel and I'm reworking that story into...

I get the whole view that a Christian should write only about things that are good, nice, edifying, and whatnot. To me, the creative arts are meant to have an effect on people. To entertain, yes, but also to maybe make them see things a bit differently. And I don’t think I’m doing any good for...

What is a Christian writer? I am wrestling with this like Jacob wrestled with God. Is it someone who tries to sanitize the world in their stories, afraid to depict anything evil or anything that might upset anyone? Or is it someone who shows just exactly how evil and corrupt the world really is...

I’ve been enjoying making playlists on Amazon Music, so I wondered, what are some songs that always seem to pop up in your playlists? Do your favorite songs share any common traits? Is there a certain mood or energy that you look for? For instance, I like songs with feeling (like...

What are the best Christian books you’ve ever read?

This could be fun. Maybe you’ve heard a song a thousand times and just now understood it. Maybe you’ve just heard a popular song for the first time and you want to express your thoughts. Whatevs! I’ll go first. You know, when you really listen to it, “MmmBop” is kind of a sad song.

Which one are you? Also, is it possible to change? I'm asking, uh, for a friend.

Everyone is busy these days. But, why? Do we like being busy? Sometimes I think so. Is it because technology lets us do things faster, so we think we have to cram more into the day? I just look around and I see that most people are extremely busy, and most are stressed because of it. But how...

Person A: “I enjoyed that movie, but now that I’ve seen it and I know what happens, no need to ever watch it again.” Person B: “I enjoyed that movie... so I will buy it to rewatch it whenever I want and re-experience it again and again.” Which are you? GIRLS ONLY! No, I’m kidding... boys too...

Okay, I JUST want to hear from the ladies on this. And if it turns unfriendly I will have the thread closed. But I don’t expect that. I have met many women who tend to be controlling... some married, some single, and a couple that I’ve dated. Ladies... what are your thoughts and experiences on...

What’s your personal style like? Is there a particular look you like for yourself? Certain accessories that you prefer? Even if you don’t consider yourself stylish, maybe there’s something you wear (or a way you wear it) that is unique to you. Here are a couple of my quirks... I like my Indiana...

So, who here likes taking pictures? I don't care if you get paid or not. Or if anyone sees your photos but you. What do you use? What do you like to photograph? What do you like to do with your photographs (if anything)? Do you have any photographic aspirations for the future, like becoming...

I was talking with a friend about the concept of "adventure" and how it irks me that people will go on tourist-y trips and call it an "adventure." I don't think it means what you think it means. So, how do you define adventure? And while we're at it, what kind of adventures would you like to...

Name five "you" movies... AKA, movies that someone must see (and possibly appreciate) if they want to understand you. I'll have to think about mine for a bit, but I will post them.

What are some good ones? What are some I might not know about? (The term "obscure epic" seems like an oxymoron, but you never know.) I have a tradition where I watch one epic movie every week for the final four-ish months of the year. Fall just seems like the perfect time to watch epic...

Is it possible that the Lord would speak to me by moving me, emotionally, whenever I read a particular verse or phrase? It has happened twice this week. The first phrase was "Even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly!" The second was from 1 Samuel: "Consecrate yourselves, and come with me to the...

Have you ever tried to show interest in someone of the opposite sex and they just didn't get it? Or have you ever realized that someone was showing you interest and you were oblivious? If so, tell us, so that we may learn!

And I will make fun of your punctuation and spelling... I mean answer them. In a video. I can't say I'll answer all of them, but I'll try to answer something from each person.

What's a profession that you admire, but could never do? One of mine is a sports coach. I admire the work they do. But if I had to motivate a baseball team, I would say something along the lines of, "Come on, guys! Be better at baseball!"

Seems like He does, based on my experience with Him.
