    Modest communities - Europe

    Hello, I wanted to ask christian communities that only wear modest clothing (no thight clothes, skirts only). I know that Nazarenes, Jehovah’s witnesses, some independent Baptists, Mennonites, Amish, Apostolic pentecostals and Branham’s (end-time message) believers wear skirts only. Are there...

    Active Faith

    With this life of modern technology and so much information processing every day, it seems easier than ever to be more focused on material and earthly idols instead of God. As a Baptist, what are some things you do to keep yourself from getting distracted from God?

    How can you financially support a church whose finances are in a secret black box?

    I was raised Southern Baptist, where an annual 'Business Meeting' was held once a year or so to print up a budget to be voted on by formal church members who felt like showing up on a Wednesday night. Deacons (and budget committee members when there was such a committee assigned), decided what...

    Hello, I'm Renee, I'm 20, and I use she/her pronouns. I recently found this forum and decided to join to possibly find other people with similar beliefs.

    Hi! I'm Matthew Safley, I was a narcoleptic, which is incurable, and I was cured on night at Christian Faith Center. Now, since I have entered the faith, and have given my life to Christ, I have questioned some of the teachings there, but I do feel that the Holy Spirit is found there...

    How To Get My Old Church To Stop Contacting Me

    I apologize if this is in the wrong forum, but I have nowhere else to put this. The Baptist church I more or less grew up in got a new pastor and within a matter of weeks went the way of the prosperity gospel megachurch. My family left last summer. My parents and sister started attending a...

    The Big Question

    Before I ask The Big Question, that anyone from the Abrahamic faiths can answer, I will be as transparent about myself and my efforts as possible. Born and raised in the USA to a military family that was half Baptist and half Catholic I was always hearing from one side the other was going to...

So I would like...

    Capturing a Town For Christ [Evangelism]

    Hey guys, I just finished a book review on what i'd like to call a 'hidden treasure'. It's a book by Jerry Falwell & Elmer Towns that was published in 1972. Almost 20 years before I was even born! It definitely has some really good nuggets of information and a great read for inspiration...

    John the Baptist, will rule for the rest of time (before God).

    Hi there, So we have an account of John the Baptist, that he died upholding the law,, but very few have stopped to think what the Resurrection of the John the Baptist might mean. Elijah is considered one and the same (the same as John), by Jesus and we must expect that the messenger will come...
