  • 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

Hi everyone! I’m excited (and a little nervous) to be here. I’ve been learning to quiet distractions and focus more on God lately, and I’m grateful for a place like this to grow and connect with others who love Jesus.

A little about me: I love quiet mornings with coffee and the Word, walks outside to clear my mind, and finding small ways to serve others. God’s been teaching me a lot about trust this year, especially Proverbs 3:5: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” It’s been keeping me grounded.

Looking forward to learning with you all and encouraging each other here. How do you all like to start your mornings with God?

Hi and welcome, looking forward to seeing you around the forum.

If for some reason we cross paths and exchange words and I come across as rude, do not take it to heart. I just lack tact and do not mean anything personal by it.

Hope you find a deeper connection with God through your interactions on these forums, and may God bless you and us through the online fellowship.

I've been blessed with a wonderful wife, family and grandkids. But blessings are not limited to things we enjoy but also things that cause growth. It is my desire to commit all things into His hands and leave them there. I find that in the early mornings before duty calls is the best time to think on Him and pray that my desires line up with His Word.
i find the day will then have much more clarity.

Welcome to CF!

Usually I find it easier to just start my day and weave in time to reconnect with God on my work breaks, but if a morning routine works for you, go for it! A Place of Quiet Rest by Nancy Leigh DeMoss was a really helpful book for me to understand what belongs in quiet time with God each day and how to push the depths of that relationship.
