    Any foster parents here?

    We're just getting started with looking into this.  Our licensing worker will be over here on Thursday.  I was just wondering what your experiences with foster parenting were, especially from a Christian perspective.  We have so much to think and pray about, &nbsp...

    The Holy Spirit?

    I liked that too Jenna! To me He's speaking to my heart throughout the day about varios things...what to do, what not to do, chastising me for yelling at my children, etc., giving me ideas, bringing my thoughts heavenward. He reveals Christ Jesus to my mind/heart. blessings, Robin

    When We Choose

    I think it's a matter of timing. We are being regenerated, sanctified...we are not completed as yet. It's not that we are perfect, but that we are being perfected. So we are still living in our sinful flesh indwelt with the Kingdom of God. What a paradoxal existence we have!  Yet it is in...

    Self-righteousness

      Everyone believes what they believe in...it is their bedrock foundation for living.   We ALL believe we are basically right, till proven wrong.   I don't think it's a matter of 'self-righteousness', but of 'self-expression';  expressing one'self...which...

    Can Just anyone Worship God???

    Yes, anyone can worship God, but the only acceptable worship to God though, are those who "worship in Spirit and in Truth". That is the only worship that God accepts. Bessings, Robin

    Mary Assumption

    Hey Humblejoe, you said, "And, just as a thought... no where in Scripture does it ever contradict Mary being assumed into Heaven. " Apologetists call that 'an arguement out of silence'. It is illogical and opens up everything to anything goes. That's how the cults are formed. Don't...

    Following God? WHO DOES IT !?

    Hi Andrew; as I've stated before, it's not either/or, but both are the full counsel of God...the Word of God. To preach one aspect of the gospel without the rest is to deceive, whether intentionally or otherwise. Church growth means nothing to me. It's the integrity towards the Word of...

    Following God? WHO DOES IT !?

      Hey Dave, I thought that that was what I said :) ? I believe in balance.  You have to know why you need salvation...(your sin...God's justice..holiness), in order to understand your need of Him.  Preaching the full gospel entells telling the WHOLE story of God's grace and...

    teaching kids how to read...Homeschoolers out there?

    Homeschool mom here. I started with my youngest with finding out what the library has. They did have "Hooked on Phonics' available to check out. So we did. And that was the precurser to our reading adventure. We've had great experience with Rod & Staff (a mennonite publisher...really...

    Describe God In ways you have experience him

    Geee, what a question! Well, just an hour or so ago, I guess. I've had an awful couple of weeks of not living up to my 'standards' and priorities that I know God expects of me (I get mega lazy and sleepy this time of year...I'm part bear!). Subsequently, because I feel so guilty, I've not...

    What about your funeral?

    I'd love to be here when Jesus comes. But if He decides not, it's best to prepare 'to go the way of all the earth' (Solomon, I think). A funeral is a necessary part of remembering and letting go of a departed loved one. It is to celebrate their life , and also to mourn our loss. Jesus...

    Following God? WHO DOES IT !?

    I think good ole fashioned 'hell fire and brimstone' should be preached first...God's displeasure of sin...what sin is and how awful are it's consequences should be preached and understood first. Then hopefully, conviction...WONDERFUL conviction takes place in the heart...THEN the love of God as...

    Following God? WHO DOES IT !?

    I think we have a Laodician church today because the preachers are afraid to preach THE WHOLE Bible. And those that do preach a balanced, complete gospel...complete with...godly sorrow leadeth to repentence, that sin IS sin, that if we don't repent, then we go to hell, that their is a HELL, that...

    Where do I go from here?

    Hey mydecember... Just fall in love with Him. Christianity is about relationship first, not religion or a new way to go...but a living, wonderous, BEAUTIFUL relationship. Our God is seeking to reveal Himself to you, not only in head knowledge (which is needful) but in experiencing Him...
