  • 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

If you could....

I have several "dream" jobs, but one of them is to be a photographer for National Geographic, or something similar, traveling (which I love), being in nature, seeing God's beauty everywhere, seeing the good and bad, the things that make us happy, capturing that and bringing it back, and just as much showing what is sad in the world, those in need of help. Combine humanitarian trips overseas in those regions for those in need and showing it to those that need to see this. That is all kind of mixed up and rambling but I'm having an off day lol.

Hmm, photography is really cool, it is one of my current side-projects from my current job... lots of fun to be a job. I think if I could have any job, it would be a tie between writer/musician or Pastor. I have been searching all of those options for real, trying to see which God is leading me too with what talents I do have.... but if there was one for sure I knew was one I could do, it would be one of those. I hope it will be one day :p

Seminary professor and pastor, with occasional chances to teach in other locales around the world, building up the leadership of the church wherever I find myself - teaching the Bible and preaching the word of God to crowds in the thousands. Oh, and also getting a chance to do my writing as well.

If we are not limited to our own time, I was also thinking that a close adviser to a king would be a cool job as well.

As for why, the first option is my eventual goal anyway. I don't know how it's all possible, but it is all up to God. And I think that is the nature of what HE has in store for me.

The adviser to a king I think would be cool just because if I were to think of myself in any other time, it would be in such a role. I do have a public enough face, but there are certain kingly traits which I don't have. Rather, I am more like the wise adviser, like Nathan or Isaiah, who thinks and listens for God's counsel, then gives it to the king.

I would like to go into something that deals with exploration. So maybe:

Oceanographer- to explore the ocean.
Achaeologist- to explore land.
Biologist- to search for new animal species and stuff.
Astronomer- to explore space.

My second dream job, and the one I am currently pursuing, would deal with film. So maybe:

Screenwriter- to write movies.
Director- mainly so I can make documentaries.
Photographer- also for documentaries.

But I really don't know what I actually want to do out of these. Right now I'm in college for film and screenwriting. I guess I will see where I'll end up after that.
