  • 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

Over the years I have seen the movie and various stage productions of the wonderful movie: Fiddler On The Roof many times. I highly recommend it to all saints of God who value the Old Testament ---though we are not of their old religion. It always inspires me, as seeing the struggle of faithful Old Testament saints in this age of Grace, and in a world which mostly disdains the Jews and even persecutes them.

It is a musical with a touching story of struggle, while seeking to obey God. The sad thing for us who know the Lord Jesus as our Savior and Lord, is how the fundamental OT saints struggle under persecutions without their Messiah, being truly faithful in their religious endeavors. Christians have known persecutions in places in this age, yet the Jews continue to be somewhat outcasts, and will until they acknowledge their Messiah has in fact come to this world, and tried to show Himself to them.

If you have an opportunity to see this production, I believe it will touch your heart, as seeing how hard it is to live for God in some places even in this time.

Having both been in a production of Fiddler and watched the movie many, many times, I agree wholeheartedly with this post (even if it was posted a while ago)! The story is beautiful and the songs never fail to get me dancing and singing along.. I would love to see it on Broadway one day.
