  • 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

I'm Not Waving

As I wrote this I thought how sometimes we're so busy being 'nice' Christians that we sometimes don't want to get our hands dirty. It's sometimes easier to just be nice and pass by rather than get to know people.


I’m Not Waving, I’m Drowning

You saw me and waved, I wasn’t saved.
You all passed by, not hearing my cry.
Time and time, you thought I was just fine.
But you didn’t look to see the despair in me.

I raised a hand, in too deep to stand.
Did you try to hear my hopeless fear?
Always too busy to see waves wash over me.
You waved today, but then walked away.

What am I to do? Sorry if I disturb you.
As you acknowledge me, but just don’t see.
Can’t you see I need saving, I’m not waving
Your head knowledge a crowning, as I’m here drowning
