  • 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

my mom has been having some real bad back pain. The doctor gave her a muscle relazer and something else and it hasn't helped. She goes to the doctor tomorrow morning. I would really appreciate it if you guys would pray that they figure out what's wrong! Thanks!

Definitely praying. I know how aweful that back pain can be.

The pillow under the leg trick, I swear by! I have serious back problems and if I lay flat on my back, the pain is much worse. I actually use 2 or 3 pillows (depending on how flat they are) and put them under my legs while I am laying on my back. It keeps my legs elevated and takes the pressure off of my back. If she lays on her stomach a lot, it helps me to keep a pillow under my stomach as well...however, laying on my stomach is not comfortable at all for me. I really have to lay on my back all the time...and before my back problems, I absolutely COULDN'T do this. But it just helped so much.

Also, kind of a common sense back saver that I think everyone kind of overlooks is not bending over to pick something up...use your legs...use your legs to lift something as well. It helps a lot.

I'm definitely praying, and if I can help in any way, let me know!
