MrHappy3 - when do you think divorce is or isn't a sin? Anyone else?

Hi, I have been separated from my husband for about 14 months now. We had been married for 18 months. About 8 months into our marriage he told me that he didn't love me and that he didn't believe in God anymore. He no longer wanted to go to church or see any of our friends from church (still...

Hi all, I know that this is perhaps a silly question to some, but it is something I have trouble answering for myself and others. I should point out that I do believe in Jesus. However, sometimes I wonder why Jesus had to die. I mean, why couldn't God just forgive people straight away? Why...

OUCH a bit...

So, I've been kinda ok lately. My counsellor has helped me to realise that all the time during my marriage when I as angry it was because my husband wasn't behaving like a husband. He stopped believing in God, which was fundamental to me. He preferred to go out with his work mates and wouldn't...

I know that its terrible, I'm just having a really bad Christmas this year. And its pretty darn hard to remember the true meaning of Christmas. I just feel like downing a whole lot of something and passing out... Or running away somewhere far far away.

I must say that I hate Christmas this year! I am supposed to be happily married with my husband. And its not fun spending Christmas with family at the moment. Especially when my sister is horrible and says that I'm just awful because I despise people with children. She has no idea what I'm going...

Hi everyone, lately I've been having some problems with anger. I'm just so so so very angry with him. And I get angry with other things and other people over such small things. And I'm finding it really hard. I know that I still love him, and I would still take him back. But, I am so angry and...

But would a good Christian man really want a divorced Christian to be his wife?

Hi everyone, thanks for all your encouragement. I'm having a bad day today. I just feel a bit out of it and tired. I just really miss my husband today!!! Lately I've been thinking how huge it is to marry someone and love them and want to spend the rest of your life with them and then CHOOSE to...

I must say that this entire post puts forth a very bad image of what being a Christian really means. There is hardly anything positive or encouraging coming out of this thread. There is not much more than complaining. Yes, you are entitled to your opinion, but please don't act as if it is fact...

Hi, sorry, I was perhaps a bit too strong in my last post. Thank you, I would like an e-hug :)

Well, I'm married and I believe that the wedding ceremony is not just for the female, but is for both the male and female to celebrate their love and union. An engagement ring, though not necessary is a wonderful symbol of love and commitment. I competely agree in equality and compromise within...

Hi, I would really like to buy some Christian music for myself. However, I'm not really familiar with many of the bands out there. Can anyone offer any good suggestions of cds I could buy. I know that I like Seabird and Kutless, but that is about the only bands I know. I also want to avoid songs...

Hi, I just came across your post. I know that this is a really late reply and you may not read it. But I'm really sorry about the loss of your friends. I understand a little about what you're going through. I had a friend commit suicide when I was in high school and I remember walking around...

Thank you for your inspiring post!!! It would be great to hear more of your story sometime

Jo, I'm sorry that you are feeling like that and that things seem to be bad for you now. I hope that if counselling is good for you then you are abe to continue going, or that you find someone else to talk to. I pray that God will give you guidance and comfort. I pray that you will find the help...

You probably know that different antidepressants work differently for different people. So, if you have been on this antidepressant for a while (maybe a month) and not much seems to be happening, I would suggest talking to your doctor about trying a new type of antidepressant. Or get a second...

Hi Mia, thanks so much for responding. I read your story and you seem so strong!!! You may not have felt it at the time, but you sounded strong. You always seemed to be relying so much on God and praying to God. I am a long way from that. I do feel a bit closer to God, but I don't really rely on...

Hi, I am from Australia, and I know that over here we have Crisis management teams set up in hospitals. If you need someone to talk to urgently, you can go and see these people. They can assess you and can suggest things to help you out. They will also contact you by phone, or visit you daily...
