I don't want to listen to secular music anymore, but would love to find Christian music that is similar to what I liked in the world. Any suggestons? My tastes for bands were Beach Boys X Chili Peppers Kingston Trio Any hard driving duets with great harmonies Neil Young basic punk, rock...

Hi I need extra wisdom and the courage to spread the gospel. I'm even timid about telling friends. Worked up the nerve to call a friend yesterday and tell him, but he had died. I need confidence and the right words for witnessing. Thanks

In the Bible God always seems to pluck out the weakest, most unholy man he can find in order to send him to do great things. I'm beginning to think God chose Trump. And NOTHING the left does can touch him. I never dreamed he would be THIS good!

Two words I am growing tired of seeing, not that anybody should care, BUT... Dogma Doctrine They seem like lazy global speak buzzwords to me. Is there nothing that can take the place of those two snobby-sounding gibberish fake intellectual words? Thhaaannnkkks...

On some threads where I have disagreed with some of you I let my annoyance that people would dare think differently than me get the better of me. If someone spoke harshly I let that bother me and I responded with rudeness. I find it amazing that I stopped going on the wordly forums I frequent...

How do you do it? Does it come naturally for you? Do you force it and see what happens? Are most people burned out on hearing the name "Jesus"? Any good success stories? Horror stories? This is the hardest part of being a Christian for me. At the slightest mention of Jesus you can see people's...

Do you do it knowingly, or are they lifted without you knowing? This has always been mysterious to me. Is it a knowing sign of praise, or an automatic lifting you can't stop? Do you think people who don't lift their arms are not feeling or are not filled with the holy spirit. I imagine tounges...

are going to hell by not following certain verses in the bible? I have seen more than twice here, people say that eternal damnation is someone's lot if... And that is despite that person being born again. Once you accept Christ into your heart and life, you are saved. God does not take that...

I'm pulling this from someone who veered into this territory while on another topic and found it interesting that his point was it is wrong to shop or anything because the bible says not to, and used the example "The bible says not to murder, would you do that?" or something like that. SO...

They have been parodied ad nauseam. The crooks raking in money have been well documented. Do you think the majority of them are just using the pulpit to rake in cash? I just started watching them and it seems a good deal of sermons veer into giving. I know they have to make money to stay on...

I saw Mike Murdock talking about how you should expect blessings from when you give. The blessings discussed were financial. He said if you are tithing you should EXPECT (a lot of extra money) back. It sounded like he was priming the pump for donations, but I'm probably still very jaded. Which...

What do you people do? I'm learning that what I think are just random thoughts are actually being whispered into my mind by Satan. Do you ever speak to him and say "Get behind me" or "I rebuke you" or any other direct reproach to him? Do you just let God handle it and ask Him to keep you from...

I have stopped writing secular songs to concentrate on expressing my faith. I have a few that I like and will write more. I record on Garage Band with just my acoustic and the recordings aren't that good. BUT if any singers or producers need songs maybe check out what I'm doing? I can email...

Anyone watching it? Have they made it wordly, secular, or sexy? Are they putting a generic anti-Christianity spin on it? In short, is it watchable? Thanks

This must come up often when witnessing. Someone will say, "Wait, my mother didn't accept Christ in her heart, but she was a very good person. Are you saying she's in hell?" How do you handle this? Thanks

Thoughts on this? I just started and he seems to be saying believing isn't enough. I haven't yet seen him mention accepting Christ into your heart. He has said many believers will get a shock on Judgement Day. He seems to be inferring that includes born again Christians, if they haven't done...

I forget what forum and which thread, but someone posted, I think it was a long time ago, a Youtube video of speakers rebutting audience disbelievers. Anyone remember or know the channel? Thanks

My pastor said we should be as trees, rooted and drawing nourishment. Not chaff blowing away. He used an example of someone, just divorced, who wanted to go off grid and live traveling on his boat, but he counseled him against it. I just heard a podcast today saying the same thing. Christians...

It this posted somewhere else, feel free to delete this and direct me. I know God wants us to respect everyone's god, but I feel Mohamed just invented Islam so he could get away with being creepy. I don't feel Islam is legitimate. I don't feel any religion that honors any other god than God is...

This morning a song went on and on and on, and when it got to the end there were 15 minutes worth of added verses. Then the pastor, and older gentleman stepped up and someone handed HIM a guitar. I reckon the music probably was a half hour before the sermon. The other church I've tried out is...
