  1. Relationship with God

    Hello everyone. I am a 21 y/o girl and I am coming on here to ask for help. I have grown up in an atheist household with a parent and brother. None of my family on this side are religious. However, around a year ago I had an overwhelming feeling and I knew it was a calling from God. Even though...
  2. It's Been So Long

    Ahem... I'm ashamed to admit that I (for the most part) de-Christianized for just about a year before reluctantly (Cracker Barrel hooked me in, actually) attending the Franklin Graham conference a couple days ago. I reluctantly re-committed myself to Christ that evening and while that night was...
  3. Growing In The Lord

    “For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:8 In the book of 2 Peter we find a list of qualities that should be inside of each and every Christian believer. Peter tells us that...

  5. Introducing myself

    In a world which is more and more hostile to Christians, this forum is an amazing place to be! I am a lifelong believer and God has been real and active in my life. 6 years ago I started to learn what it meant for God to have all of me. Nothing held back, no secrets no hidden places. The...
  6. Intellectual relationship with God... Want a few answers.

    1. Is it okay that I don't feel an emotional closeness but an intellectual fascination with God? 2. How do I fight off temptation through Scripture? 3. How do I recover from an addiction that still tries to attack me even when I was regenerated? (I feel devastated when I get triggered by my...
  7. What is the Proper Relationship with Christ?

    I'm not sure if I should post this to the advice forum or the theological forum, because this deals with both simultaneously. I know of the 'Jesus is my buddy' theology and I used to believe that but I never had an intimate experience with Christ, especially in that way. I read on a Lutheran...

    Battling 13 years of Acne - Last ounce of hope

    My acne started around 13 years ago. I began praying to God, asking him to clear my skin, around high school. I presume God's answer was one of two below: 1) "No." 2) "Wait." Here I am 13 years later, battling acne still. I really don't know how I survived spiritually or mentally with this...

    God's Plan for me ...

    I am new to this site and wasn't sure where to post my question. Although I have always believed in God I am new to Christianity. Long story short I am confused if what I think is God's plan for me and my BF? or if I'm just grasping at straws. This man has literally been in love with me since...

  11. Being unequally yoked.

    I was in a 6 month relationship with a strong believer in god but I am only returning to my faith. We split up after having a 4 hour discussion about our faith. We discussed his testimony and why I turned my back on god. We prayed together and I asked god to take my burdens from me and accept me...

  13. How to have a good relationship with God when you have a distorted view?

    I have prayed about this, and God knows this directly but does not fix this problem easily for some reason. God has told me to be more honest and quit lying to myself and not be hypocritical about Him or what my real feelings are. The problem is when you take everything away, my views of God are...
