  • 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.

Had to share my '40 Acts' Lent devotional today.

We are introduced to a Welsh brother in Christ Rob who lives in Bristol, he has long term health issues which prevent him from going out too often but despite this he still volunteers!

Rob helps with all of the simple administrative work in Bible translations, from doing this, his carer walked in on him working and saw a translation Rob was copying- it was a tribal language his carer spoke!

Rob got to hear his carer recite the Bible in an African tribal language, he had done administrative work for so long but now he got to finally hear how one of the languages sounds!

What an inspiration Rob is to serving! I'd also request prayers for Rob, it is unclear whether his health prevents him from going to church and if it does, I pray he has a Christian family that are there for him or for him to find one!
