praying for you.

*huggle* for everyone

clicked ordination of women and same-sex relationships are not sinful.

I get so upset with myself at times like this. I go months without self harming and then everything hits me like a ton of bricks. I end up relapsing. consistently relapse for weeks on end before managing to stop again. My normal coping mechanisms feel undoable because of my headspace. I often...

I don't think there is a Biblical backing but I think it can be amusing and interesting to see them. I am an ESFJ, and a lot of that fits me really well.

I will be praying for you. I know at least my denomination seems to be open to the LGBT community. I am panromantic and struggle with that kinda stuff sometimes. Hope you stay well.

I do feel this way ): I wish I didn't...

*sigh* kind of sad everyone made this a joke. While I think it is a bit odd to go "erm so God I'm gonna sin tomorrow forgive me then too so I sin less!" but I think your heart is in the right place. We all sin and fall short of the glory of God as long as we are on this earth. I do think it is...

Well...I am certainly not here to just say he is in a better place. Not due to a non-religious thing, I just know when my oldest brother passed away it did not console me, I still wanted him with us. The cliche statement of "time heals" is a very true thing...the thing is... Don't expect it to...

I actually don't have any blame to put on my parents. They've practiced tough love on some things but it made me a better person at least. My problem more came from peer group judgment, and an emotionally abusive relationship.

thank you for sharing this. I think that is something I really struggle with there. I don't want to bother people with my negative headspace so I tend to just act like it isn't happening. Mask it off, so no one really knows about it. ):

It did not exactly come easily. It just kind of happened. I was intending to commit suicide but walked to an ER at 3 AM instead. Me and God got REAL close right then. I tell no jokes here, I was crying out that I didn't know what to do anymore. I will pray some of that eases for you. <3

an elaboration for him moreless. Jesus was actually a Jew. Christian was not really a real faith until Jesus DID die for us, then the followers were called "Christians" :)

The Bible sincerely warns us to beware of a wolf in sheep's clothing. It is true some people claim to be Christian and show otherwise. Nonetheless, it is between them and God what is the truth, but we should also be cautious.

So, I am a college student, and in my social work 101 class today, they had guest speakers from NAMI. Both of the speakers mentioned their stories and struggles with mental illness and management. I mean, it was emotionally hard for me to hear them discuss such dark times, but also as they...

Personally affirmations such as this have never helped me. ):

that herchurch thing is almost enough to make me hide under a rock. Dear Lord, what has the world come to?

Hey there, if this needs moved go ahead. I'm really unsure if I put this in the correct place. For a few months now, I have been going to an ELCA church. It is the Lutheran church nearest to me. I was made aware the ELCA is generally viewed as a more "liberal" Lutheran church. I don't mind...

): as a college student using pell grants this is depressing.

Well since we clarified lots of reasons to leave, let us grab some reasons to STAY... 1. The Bible did say where a group is gathered within His name, He is there. Church is a place to be wholly invested into the presence of God. It is not an experience that is always easy to obtain outside of...
