Hello there! My name is Abby, I am almost 21-years-old and I hail from California, born and raised. I go to a Baptist university in Southern California. I became a Christian about a year and a half ago and God has taught me some amazing things about His deep love for me and about His Son. It has been a rough last few months for me though, because I am seeing how my previous lifestyle as an extreme people-pleaser has had, and still has, some reprecussions on my life now. I have a really hard time "just being myself" because I have learned to gag myself in order to appease others. But Christ has been trying to teach me to be comfortable with myself and to have pride in the individual He made me to be. My prayer is that I am able to learn to do this over this summer so that I may enjoy my last year in college without constantly fretting. I plan on entering the mission field as a career after I graduate, but I have no idea what I want to do. For a person with an English degree and an open heart, does anyone have any suggestions?? God Bless!

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.

Hello, and welcome! Glad to have you with us. 
One possibility would be to teach English as a means of supporting yourself, and serving others, on the mission field.
