Hey all. This year is the first year I've lived alone (almost a year now, anyway). I was fortunate to find a church that felt like a family away from home, but due to some theological differences creating an impasse (can't take communion without being a member, and I don't feel comfortable being...

Hi, I am a deputy manager at a charity shop and one of our team's volunteers is taking some time off at the moment, as they deal with difficulties around their mental health. I am essentially feeling uncertain as to what to do in the means of support so wondered whether anyone may be able to...

Do you ever feel like you're stuck in disappointing God? I am living with my son's dad out of wedlock, I have been with him for 6 years. I have already repented for the acts, but I feel my son is a gift at the same time. (Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, jeramiah 1:5) My partner...

Why is this happening? I attend two different churches and at one of them I’ve been getting spiritually attacked, so has my sister. We both got attacked the same day. Looking back on it, it’s happened a lot. I didn’t sense it was the devil trying to hinder me, but I sense it’s more so a sin of...

Hi everyone! So yesterday I took the plunge and got a cat from a shelter. She's an adorable little 11 lb grey and white short hair they named Anastasia, and was very sweet and friendly at the shelter. Predictably, though, since getting her home she has been very scared and stressed. She had...

(Edited) Hi and thank your for reading this. I’m married and when I went to court to get married with him, my husband told me he was divorced, this marriage was not an actual marriage (he married his friend do do her a favor, as she had helped him in the past so he returned the favor)… I...

Hello, I'm still young but I have been seeking for a religion almost my entire life. Until I was probably 11 or 12 I was a hardcore bonafide fedora-wearing Atheist. It's just because I was an ignorant immature kid. Then, I was super into Buddhism, trying to practice it in my everyday life; but...

I moved to a new state a few months ago for work. My family is over 1000 miles away. I have no boyfriend, I didn't have any friends here, I was completely on my own. I started going to a church right when I got here, and I've made friends there. But they're more like acquaintances; overall I...

Hello everyone! I write this post with great excitement today. Over the weekend, my wife and I were invited to speak at a church in order to be voted on as the Lead Pastor. The vote came back and we were voted in! Thankfully this is a one-time vote and means that we do not have to be voted on...

This is about writing romance into stories, not reading romance novels. I'm currently working on a science fiction story, where the two main characters are married. There's no smut or anything, their romance isn't what drives the story (but the fact that they want to escape a situation they're...

Hi all. I hope this post reaches everyone well in this difficult time. I'm mainly seeking prayer or any advice someone might have for a really troubling thing I've been going through. I've been a super devoted Christian for most of my young life. I'm talking going to church four days a week...

Hello brothers and sisters of Christ! I have a question. There is this guy that shows up at church every Sunday and Wednesday. He always asks for money. He’s not homeless. But he is older and doesn’t have a job. He can still get around though. I’m pretty sure he walks to the other church all the...

About a year ago I was raped. If I choose to press charges I should do so soon because my rape kit will be thrown away after a year. Is it wrong to press charges? My family thinks that I should, but I'm honestly very scared nothing will come from it. I signed up for this website to learn...

Hi, My relationship with Jesus isn’t the best. I’m worried because I don’t really feel emotions for Jesus. I’ve been Christian since start of may 2020. I don’t have a close relationship with Him. [Jesus]. I feel scared because I’m not close to Him. He scares me and I’m scared because He...

Buckle up, this is gonna be a long one. I posted this on the OCD forum but I want another perspective. So I've been applying for jobs out of state for awhile. Praying for God to help me move out of my parents house. Months go by without much of a peep. Then, not this past week but the week...

Hey everyone! Hope you all are having a great night. Recently, I have had a few pages turned over in my life's story. I'm looking for continued growth and clean outlooks that can support anything ahead. Unsure exactly what might help me, currently, I am seeking some guidance. Specifically...

My life’s a mess and it’s all my fault. My wife and I got involved in sexual sin a few years ago and it’s caused a lot of pain on both sides, but the thrill prevented us from stopping. Recently God started working on my heart and I started feeling convection. I expressed that I wanted to stop...
