  • 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 have been single again for several years. Honestly at first, it isn't easy. Of course, it depends on the situation. It is an adjusment and if the single life in any way looks like greener pastures, it's not. If there is anyway possible to save your marriage, do it. A new life and a new person might be fine at first, but once things settle down you usually have issues to deal with, and if you ever marry again it is never like your first, a blended family is very difficult, it just isn't natural and usually takes about 4 years to blend both families. I don't mean to sound depressing, just letting you know from someone who has been out there several years. I will say my relationship with God has grown stronger in my single life and I have been able to serve God and others. But, it is hard being single.

It has really been a struggle to be single again, my whole life was geared twoard my family. I have had to alter every facet of my life now. My daughter and grandson live with me now, so I still have some family around. I also get to see my sons whenever I want so that is nice, in 3 years haven't met anyone yet. I am however trusting God to send me someone someday.
