• 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.

My pastor says some seriously awesome things!

"Wherever you go, there you are!"

"God loves you right where you are, but He loves you too much to leave you there."

"Take your fun with you!"

I picture him smiling a lot. God bless him :)

Thought this was cool

~~~
God saw you were getting tired
and a cure was not to be,
so he put his arms around you
and whispered "Come to me...".
With tearful eyes we watched
and saw you pass away.
Although we love you dearly,
we couldn't make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.

"If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be without meaning." ~C.S. Lewis

Not sure.


I am God's melody of life and He sings His song through me.

We can never really go where God is not, and where He is, all is well.

No matter what is happening in your life, know that God is waiting for you with open arms.

God promises a safe landing, not a calm passage.

Do your best and then sleep in peace. God is awake. God has a purpose and plan for me that no one else can fulfill.

"The perfect church service would be one we were almost unaware of; our attention would have been on God." ~C.S. Lewis
Very true!!


Prayer: don't bother to give God instructions, just report for duty.

It is not my business to do God's business and it's His business to take care of my business.

Serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace amid the storm.

How come you're always running around looking for God? He is not lost.

God put me on earth to accomplish a number of things; right now I'm so far behind I will live forever.
