    Depressed over 'Freedom'

    It's 9:45pm right now, and I couldn't sleep because I just started feeling depressed.. I think it will help to talk about how I'm feeling right now. I wish I had more freedom. I'm a teenager, we're usually craving independence (stereotypically..). But my parents are pretty protective, and that's...

    My Family aren't Christian (entirely..?)

    Hi, I'm Neari. I'm only 15, and I love my family so dearly. I grew up sorta Christian, because my sister raised me to believe in God. But without the Bible in my life, I had no knowledge about Christianity. I didn't even know who Jesus was before! But after my Sis started reading the Bible, I...

    Afraid and Lost.

    someone very dear to me in my family has made mistakes, I used to come into his room with him praying every night. I could feel his fear. He then began reading the Bible and he finished it, I beleive he did this so it could lead to his salvation, I don't know he never told me why. But after that...

    How to tell my Orthodox family that I am Protestant?

    My family is strictly Orthodox. We live somewhere where to be Protestant is equal to be in a sect. I am afraid to tell them (only my mother knows, but she thinks it is a phase and she advised me not to tell, which now, a year later, results in constant fear). Whenever this subject pops up my...

    The war has never ended for the Jews. From the moment they were chosen, satan started to annihilate them. They didn’t ask to be chosen but kind of ended up that way without even a debate or a referendum. Of course, all this has to do with when Abram was called by God to start a nation that would...

    Prayer for Protection & Support for the Evangelist

    Peace unto all in our Lord's name unto y'all. After I had been delivered from my plight of dental disorders, I have been re-enabled to resume my missionary for about two months.

    I'm struggling

    Hi! I've never really done this before, but I really just don't know where else to go. As the title says, I'm struggling. There's just so much happening in my life, it feels as though I'm drowning. I normally can find God in every situation, once I step back, but He seems to be missing right...

I'm in a bit of a tough spot in my faith and I'm not really sure how to handle it. I don't have a...
