• 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.

hmmm... roll call...

Presbyterian Church in America and Reformed to the bones.
I've always liked the PCA churches I've been to. Overall, they have a very good balance of doctrine/worship/outreach/prayer. The only reason I don't attend the local PCA church in my area is because I like the church I'm at (it's actually non-denom formally, but in essence reformed baptist) and I've been there for ages.

One of my favorite PCA guys is Tim Keller. I've learned a ton from his ministry and I love the emphasis on mercy ministry.

Which PCA did you attend and how did you like it?

Alexandria Presbyterian church

I very much enjoyed it. I got there a little late, so I only got to hear one hymn, but it was great, the fist time I've heard a hymn in church. (The churches I have been to before play conteporary-Pentecostal type music)

The Pastor exposed some verses about the Resurection of Jesus, I thought it was a very good sermon. :)

PCA baby, and wouldn't have it any other way!

I love it there, the teaching can be intellectually challenging but, they teach the word in season and out of season with great patience. What more could one ask for?

Behold, the Reformed Camp :)



We're the smart headzy guys with water tight theology, right? :D

I think I'd sign here.

I'm not Reformed, although I say that because I don't know much Reformed theology. :pink: What I do know of is tremendously strong, in my estimation.

I consider myself a freethinker with orthodox leanings. :)

Oh, and a question. Can your bones be reformed? ;)

Joel here. I've been reformed for a couple years now. I attend a PCA in Jacksonville, FL called Westminster Presbyterian Church. My family attends a PCA in LaPorte, IN called Faith Community Church.
