Hey, thanks for answering the question and I respect your opinion, but I also disagree with you... Coming from a Christian family, my parents intentionally set against "sheltering" my brothers and I. They protected me against harm, but always sought to give me an expanded worldview. All...

Hi everyone! I just wanted to say thanks so much for all the advice and encouragement - it was comforting and really helpful. It's been almost 2 months since I posted this, and I'm so glad to say that I'm not anxious anymore and I don't have doubts. M asked me to be his girlfriend about a month...

I totally understand what you're all saying and where you're coming from (I completely agree that modesty is an attitude and change between cultures), but in terms of Western culture, what do you feel specifically is immodest in terms of clothes?

I blush too! It's a dead give-away since I'm so pale! :D

What worship/Christian song do you really love at the moment? Post a verse or two and share why you love it! :) One of my current favourites is Like Incense by Hillsong church (sung by Brooke Fraser.) The first time I heard it, I felt like I've always known it. That's how all beautiful...

We have a Youth ministry of about 20 teenagers, from a church of about 150 people... at the moment though, only about 10 kids turn up... Half of our youth ministry consisted of ten girls from the local high school who were all friends, brought along by two girls who are Christians. This term...

I'm a youth leader in a small youth of about twenty kids between the ages of 13 and 17... only about ten of them come to youth and Sunday church every week, but of those ten, it's been an incredible journey. Youth is soooo much fun and a great excuse to run around and be noisy, but it's also a...

I'm still in super close contact with my 3 bestfriends from school, who have always spiritually encouraged me and prayed for me too many times to count. We share everything. I know through thick and thin, they'll be there, because our friendship is so rooted in God. :) I also have a bestfriend...

To me, modesty is an attitude. It's as much about the way you act as the way you dress, but clothes are also really important. What is dressing modestly? With skirts/dresses, how short is too short to be modest? With tops, how low is too low for modesty? Guys, are there clothes that you think...

I'm doing a Bachelor of Fine Art at the National Art School in Sydney. I'm absolutely looooving it! :D After, I'm planning on doing a Bachelor of Business (Marketing), cause art won't actually get me a job! ^_^

Not anytime soon, but one day... I have three foster siblings under 7, who've lived with my family since they were 3 years old. The eldest has autism and the youngest has developmental delays. I often babysit them, sometimes for up to 2 weeks (I'm certified with the foster agency :))... and...

Apple pie! (but if I could, I'd have both together ;) ) Have no hands or have no feet?

It feels like something is missing when there's no pulp! Pulp adds deliciousness.

I'm totally jealous that you're roadtripping! I'm currently sitting in my comfy chair in my bedroom, on CF instead of starting an assignment that's due in a few weeks. :D

I live rent-free at home, but I still wish I was back in high school. :D Life is great now, but I miss the friendship and community of my high school. I was really lucky, I guess... Cliques totally broke down after Grade 9 in my year group and I can honestly say that I was friends with...

I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine losing my best friend. My prayers are with you, and his family.

The thing I try to remember about people who seem heartless is that they do have hearts... that they do have feelings, but maybe they're too scared to be vulnerable, or they don't know how to be... And that when they seem to only love themselves, it's because they don't know how to truly love...

I never thought of it that way before, but it actually makes a looot of sense.

I'd marry a Christian who wasn't a virgin, but I'd be lying if I said it wouldn't bother me. Of course I'd forgive him (if God has, who am I not to?) but it would upset me that he didn't place the same value on his sexual purity that I did. In the back of mind, there'd always be the thought...
