• 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.

Your house-mates assessment of you reflects who you are much more than your dad's. His is surely more about him and how he feels than about who you are. Your father in heaven thinks much more highly of you. It's painful because your earthly parents are supposed to validate you.

My dear friend,

I completely agree with you....my father's anger/bitterness/rage/resentment is completely about his own inner torment.

Thank you for reminding me that our Father in Heaven thinks highly of me.

In a perfect world, earthly parents would definitely validate their children

may our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always

may our Father in Heaven bless you
