  • 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

hello Tom it seems like only too many people feel the same as you. Alot of churchs really seem to not welcome knew people or not welcome everyone wholeharteadly. I wish you luck in finding a welcoming church, i will be praying for you also.

if you previously attended a small church maybee you should try a larger one. many of the smaller churches are small only because they want to be. i know thats the way it is with my church.... we should overfil our church but we drive everyone out with silly little fights and we only have like 30 people 15 on one side and 15 on the other anyone knew just gets scared away....

i'm praying.

I'm sort of in the same situation as you. Used to pray for a good spiritual friend, and i got one about a couple of months later.. and now.. just trying to fit in more. yeah, it's hard but it won't be that hard either, keep praying and God'll open the door for you. :)

If you are unhappy with your church then please find another one and soon too! It is important in your daily walk to be around a body of believers that you are comfortable with. Otherwise, you wind up feeling like you do right now. When a church becomes a hindrance to you it is time to move on. Ask God to lead you where He wants you to be. I am confident that He will. Hope all works out with ya, Tom.
