  • 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

my name is gerry...27 years ago I becam a believer...as a typical bpd I completly submerged myself into being the best christain possible...because of my past and story I became very active in music ministry and sharing my testimony...in fact I becam a national spokeperson for the protection of children in canada...then eveything collapsed...I began the see the human side of the people I had looked up to and became very detatched...walked away from every relationship I had except my family...I moved out the the country and became a recluse for 8 years...became manic depressed and started the anti depressant nightmare...3 years ago I was diagnosed with bpd...made a lot of sense to me...today I desperately want to get out of my hole...the problem...I am bpd and hurt a lot of people...am very embarrassed and do not think I will be forgiven...in fact in 8 years I received one phone call from a Christian friend who wanted to meet but I became so full of anxiety that I declined...I was a very high profile Christian...was on national TV in Canada... and at this point don't know what to do...I have started praying again but do not know how to get out of my hole and enter the Christian world that I now fear so much

Hi there Gerry and a BIG WELCOME to CF!
Thanks for your biog - I pray that you will remain close to the Lords heart as you seek to rejoin the journey he has planned for you. Let the Lord back into your life, I did after many years of pain and take things day by day, he knows you completely, knows all your joys and your pain, let him in to walk with you.
