• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hello to one and all! This is my first post to CF and I am looking forward to getting to know some of you. It will take me awhile to learn my way around, so please be patient with me.

I just retired last year under a medical disability and am working through the transition. One of the benefits of having so much free time is being able to futher develop my relationship with God and with fellow Christians. I've met a lot of wonderful people over the last year and have discovered that God has blessed each one of us with something we can contribute.

So, God bless you all and thanks for allowing me to join you on the journey!

Catherine :wave:

Lovely to meet you, Catherine. It can take a while to get your bearings here, but it will happen eventually (I've been here ages and I still get lost, hehe ;)).

Hi, welcome to Christian Forums! You've been blessed by a CF Angel.

My name is FaithfulWife and I'm glad you're here. This place can be big and confusing, so here are a few things that might help you:

Christian Forums has a newsletter, so to see what's happening around here and read all the latest news, come to The Forum Focus!

To get blessings, you can go to the Blessings Exchange forum. We play games and take quizzes to earn blessings! You can also get 100 blessings from me just for meeting one friend: FaithfulWife's Newbie Blessing Game!

To get a character, Click Here or go to the top of the page sort of in the middle, and click on [Character]. You will need to select a body, hair, eyes, lips, and eyebrows/facial hair. I personally chose NOT to have a beard!
We also have two forums for some free clothes: Armory Giveaway for Newbies and Free Clothes for Newbies.

Finally, you might want to look in the Life Stages forums to find a group that fits you. I'm in the Women's Discussion, Parenting, and Marriage Ministry, and there's a life stage there to fit YOU!

If you have any newbie questions you can give me a Private Message (PM) anytime.
