Let's discuss 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. Man, this verse is a heavy one for some people. A lot of us Christians, myself included have a degree of recklessness. While I do not smoke, or do any drugs, I sometimes did risky stuff due to my poor executive skills (ADHD and impulsivity, so I do not...

1 Cor 11: 24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye...

Hi guys, thanks for letting me join the forum. I love training and keeping fit and I'm really enjoying recently training with other Believers. This has made us start talking about: What do you feel are the biggest issues or roadblocks we face as Believers when it comes to our health & fitness...

Hi, at times I feel urges to fast (food), for something I pray for each day. I am underweight however, although not significantly so. It would be useful to hear if anyone has any thoughts around whether to do so or not. Thanks so much.

Hi there, So yes Mark 10:30 makes it very clear, that what we suffer for God and His kingdom will be rewarded but that even being rewarded, there will be persecutions that follow with that rewarding. It's like someone learning to ride a bike, if they have an accident on the footpath - running...

Hello, everyone I dont know where else to turn, I'm asking for prayer to heal my body and for God to give me peace over my mind and heart. That He will help my mind be at rest and to be calm and smart about my sickness. And I ask that He will draw me close and give me great faith and strength...

My husband Peter had what seemed like a mini stroke today. He slid off the chair onto the floor and lost his speech. He has had cancer and tumours have returned. I sent for an ambulance and he has gone to hospital. I am trusting the Lord to bless and heal and restore him to full health in Jesus...

Hi there, So yes, I have struggled with a diagnosis of my schizophrenia, for years. One thing that made it particularly difficult, was that the treating team (the psychiatrist and his nurses) would say "you will have this condition for the rest of your life", as if the Day I reach Heaven, I...

Hi there, So I just thought it might be interesting to list places when general struggles (in mental health, etc.) has been a focus of popular culture. Three references that come straight to mind are: A Brilliant Mind - with Russell Crowe The Caveman's Valentine - with Samuel L Jackson The...

Hi there, So yes, you can tell I'm an old hand at this, from the title. I have been on the ins and outs of schizophrenia for a couple of decades now and I have to say it hasn't all been roses. It started out with my sense of meaning slipping from reality and became a full blown delusion about...

Hi there, So this is more directed, at those that were born with "schizophrenia" but it can apply to schizophrenic-ness that has been abused or maligned. The point is simply this, the Devil is the one that sets the standard of mental health at "completely normal" - but we must get angry and...

Hi there, So yes, a word of hope here: it is possible to tame your psychosis - in a manner of speaking. Initially, schizophrenia (for example) can be very wild and unchecked, but with proper self-care (meditation, diet, medication - to an extent - exercise), you can reach a point, where you...
