• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

  • The rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

Want to introduce myself. I am new to this forum (but am a veteren on many others).

I am a Roman Catholic. I am a convert from Anglicanism, having been previously an Evangelical. Once I "discovered" the Church Fathers...I moved successively from Evangelical to Anglican to RC.

I am a former RC seminarian who completed most of the coursework for an MDiv/MA in Theology...so I enjoy a good debate/discussion with fellow open-minded folks (I don't judge).

In the book of Acts. Spoken by the prophet Joel:
In the last days I will pour out my Spirit on all people.

Greatest Catholic revival I have seen in forty years. God is calling his army of Catholics
to rise up and take their place in his kingdom.
and everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved!
Welcome friend.
