    Stumped about how to help someone

    Sorry this is long. There's someone I work with occasionally who I'd like to help. It involves a student loan. I've tried to think of ways I can do this without her knowing about it. Why I don't want her to know is for this: it will create an awkward environment in the workplace. I'm been...

    The manner in which we are united to Christ after death (question on a view of this)

    Sorry about the title, I wasn't quite sure how to briefly describe my inquiry (And I'm not quite sure this is in the correct forum either). I am a historical researcher whose subject is a Presbyterian who had lived some 150 years ago, and I came across an interesting sentence in one of his...

    Commemorating the Birthday of someone very Dear to me

    I would like to commemorate the birthday of my screen-namesake, D. H. Hill (dob: 7/12/1821). Through this faithful servant of Christ, I was led to the knowledge of God—all done by His infallible counsel and perfect wisdom. I don’t know that many would know who he is, though he did play somewhat...

    Do not give up hope! Trust that God will provide His people with rest...

    Do not give up hope! Trust that God will provide His people with rest from the weariness of the world with a time of Christian resurgence. Sometimes it may seem that with so much worldliness and infidelity around us that God has turned from us and left us to our own corrupt desires; but I...

    Positive conversations at work

    I just wanted to share with all about the wonderful grace of God I've received while at work the past couple of days. Most days, it is a struggle to be there because the people whom I work with act rather ungodly: they make lewd jokes and constantly gossip about people (and then there are the...

    The Problem of Evil

    I was having a very good discussion on the problem of evil in the Exploring Christianity forum and I thought I would move part of it here. Please join in on the discussion. (Italics are my posts, green text the reply to it, plain text my answer to the reply) Originally Posted by dhh712 I...

    Love of God and how (if at all) it can relate to love of a person

    I don't know if this is posted in the correct forum so the moderators can move it if they feel it belongs elsewhere. Scripture tells us that we should love God with all our heart, soul, and might. Is anyone able to describe how this feels? I want to love God this way, but I am terrified that...

    Any one ever feel this sort of depression?

    I have these vicious cycles of depression and I wondered if anyone else ever felt similar to this. It's hard to explain but I will do my best. I get depressed not because I want anything from this world, but because I don't want to be here at all. There are just a few things in my life which...

    Thoughts about leaving my roommate (long message)

    (I'm not sure if this is posted in the correct forum, so if the moderator sees it as better fit in another, please do move it to the one which is more appropriate). The situation I'm in is a rather complex one, and I am just basically writing to sort out my thoughts and perhaps hear another...

    Greetings, an Introduction

    (I tend to ramble on in my posts, so I apologize if this becomes very drawn out and tedious). Greetings to everyone here on this forum! Here is my background story: I was raised in a non-devout Catholic family (we attended mass and went through the motions of worship, but there was hardly...

    Difference between PCA and OPC?

    I just registered here and I hope to post an introduction soon (I've got to be off to work soon however!), yet I would really like to ask something which I've been wondering about for quite some time. Here is some background information (something of an introduction I suppose): I've been...
