  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

    A pyrograph (woodburning) that I made a while ago

    I kind of botched up the hand. I am not a very good artist and my hands shake, but this is merely one of the ones that I have done and I think I have pictures of the others, so if you like this one I will try to share others.

    Art and Illustrations of Bible Characters.

    As a child, I started attending Sunday School in the mid-70s (Southern Baptist Convention). At the time, Broadman press was handling the Sunday School materials. Most every depiction of Bible characters (the classroom posters, etc.) were artistically rendered to a very high standard of realism...

    Where did the sublime go?

    I was just thinking about cathedrals. Imagine that you're a mediaeval peasant. Your life is populated by the quaint, and the perfectly unremarkable. Squat buildings, thatched roofs, perhaps a stone manor with a turreted tower or two. Every year however you make a pilgrimage to the local...

    Christianity and Art-culture?

    There is only so much time in a day. There is only so much time in a life. Question being: how best should that time be used? The most important question to answer regarding the usage of time is whether one believes in a reality beyond bodily death, and if so how does one best secure a 'good...

    New to Christ, mentally ill, struggling

    Hi everyone. I've been a believer for almost 7 months now. I believe in God, Christ, and objective right and wrong. I struggle deeply with mental illness. I had been seeking treatment for 7 years before coming to God, but I did not begin to heal until I accepted Christ because secular...

    What is the purpose of the Church?

    The answer, of course, would depend on what religion is in question. I am interested in other religion's answers for their own particular "Church" (whatever form that may take). What I present is my Catholic Christian answer for this question. The purpose of the Church is to bring Christ to...

    Doodling game

    I made a little doodling game during lockdown. Does anyone want a go? Monsterland You all know that game where you draw a head, then fold over the paper and someone else draws the body, etc... Well it's an online version of that. No account needed, no ads and it's free.

    Who is the artist?

    I tried using Google reverse image search but all I came up with was Pinterest and a buncg of Spanish sites (I don't speak Spanish:sorry:). Does anyone know the artist's name? I'd like to see his other work and maybe purchase something. Thanks!

    Should I quit art school

    I'm getting a really expensive art education to prepare for an art college / art career right now. My family, since I got accepted, keep telling me this is amazing and surely part of God's plan. But now I feel afraid it's not. I love art, have always been an artist, but I'm scared that unless I...

    Is my hobby and sidejob sinful?

    I’m a digital artist and pretty decent at drawing. I’ve taken commisions from to draw whatever they request. A lot of those drawings have been lewd in nature and, at times, even pornographic. Is this bad?

    Christian Artists of Nudity, please address this text

    Although I doubt that public and quasi-public nudity are always bad (e.g. Isaiah, or any painting that uses nudity to depict shame or defeat, etc.), based on the text below I believe that it's a distortion to use nudity in art if the intent is to portray beauty. Specifically, consider how the...
