    Hii, first of all nice to meet you, I'm 16 and I'm from Europe :) Sooo this might be stupid, but I don't know if I should keep watching a show called "the amazing digital circus". The first episode came out a month ago, it has become my favourite show already. :') It doesn't promote sin or...

    Looking Through the Window

    Now I am looking through the window In the corner of my room. I see people walking here and there Seemingly without a care. I wonder, “Do they truly know Him? Do they think of Him at all? Do they think of what He’s done for them? Have they given Him a call? “Do they wonder if He’s listening To...

    Waking up

    I was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness. Just in the past year I have gone from feeling that something is wrong, to thinking that our leadership is off the rails, to thinking that a few of our doctrines are wrong, to finally realizing through the leadings of Holy Spirit that The Watchtower...

    We Just Have to Trust Him

    1 Samuel 16:7 ESV “But the Lord said to Samuel, ‘Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him.

    Can someone explain statues and icons to me?

    Hello, I'm learning about Christianity currently and this is something that I've had some hard time understanding by just reading about it online. What is the purpose of statues/icons? What is the difference between the two? Do they serve different purposes? What is the difference between...

    Insight/advice

    I started practicing meditation and all the new age bologna, and it very quickly brought me right to God. "knock, and He will answer" indeed. So in the meditations, or prayer, He sometimes shows me great images, or teaches me amazing lessons. It is hard to explain to people, when I try, it's...

    I need advice from some Christians.

    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...

    Any good timeline charts of Scripture I could share with lower-class junior high/high schoolers?

These are mostly junior high/high-school age kids living in broken homes and dealing with personal issues. After basketball, we go through passages of scripture, and we want to...

    Does Deuteronomy 22:1-3 teach we should help strays?

    Hello! Does Deuteronomy 22 teach that we should help stray animals find their owners, even when we don't know the owners? Here's the passage in question (emphasis mine): If you see your fellow Israelite’s ox or sheep straying, do not ignore it but be sure to take it back to its owner. 2 If they...

    I've come here with a whole lot of questions

    Hey people, I've recently had an experience which has led me to start believing in God, I've been having a lot of questions, since I never read the bible, and am the only one in my direct family. I guess I should open a thread at the ''christian living'' part of this forum?

    What should somebody fairly new to the UMC ask?

    Every first Sunday of the month, the pastors at the UMC have a time when, if people want to ask questions, they can come ask them and they will try to answer them to the best of their In the abilities. This would only be my third time asking stuff as this time is only held during Sunday School...

    LDS Elder Bednar shows how the brethren avoid difficult questions: No pre-prepared questions allowed

    Watching this kind of manipulation in action is not only helpful in learning how to navigate such roadblocks put in the way to getting to the truth (on the Mormon religion, on the person of JS, on the BOM, on whatever), but also helps us to see why our Mormon friends on this website and...

    Hello -- my name is Jackson and I am currently exploring my relationship with faith and God.
