• 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.

Hi there :)
I'm 19 and I live in the UK. I'm really happy to have found this place cos I've been agnostic for much of my life and now I'm interested in reading the Bible for the first time. I didn't know there were so many different ones in print to choose from, though! Looking forward to chatting and learning a lot of wonderful things :)

Its good that you are looking. I've spent all my life looking for God and last december I finally found Him. It was the best thing that has ever happened to me. I feel so fulfilled and carefree for the first time in my life. The best Bible for someone who hasnt read it before is probably the NIV version. But hey everybody is different. The Bible is an amazing book, especially when things happen to you which are in the bible !!

This is a good website too for inquiring.

Where in the UK are you from ?

Thank you for the warm welcomes!

Hi Bonhoffer :) I'm from Liverpool. Thanks for the Bible suggestion - I didn't have a clue which one was best to start with. I've been looking around the site since, and it does look like a great place for inquiring!
