  • 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.

Hello,

I am having a dilemma. How do I know if I am being called to preach? I have a VERY VERY STRONG desire and urge to want to preach, but I am scared. You see I have been out of my church for a long time and I am really scared what people might say. I am also scared that I dont have the necessary knowledge to be a minister. I feel like I dont know what I want to know. I want to preach and minister, but my main dilemma is "is this what God has for me". Someone, please help me....

You shouldn't worry so much about what people think. It's about what God is possibly calling you to do. Remember, God doesn't call the qualified, he qualifies the called.

I too returned to the church after a long absence. Threw myself in children's ministry because I felt that was what I was supposed to be doing. Didn't have a clue what to do or where to start. All you have to do is say Okay Lord whatever you want from me and it is amazing what happens to you!

I pray that the Spirit reveal to you where you are supposed to be!

For Him,

MM
