• 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.

After over one hour

Of fruitless scripture reading and prayer

by the shoreline of His majestic beauty,

I gave up and let go of trying so hard to find g_d

Forced readings and prayers fell flat

Too tired to go on with any words past

a few memorized verses, I went blank

a sigh with regret and sense of failure

I got up from the sandy secret spot

and started to walk

forwards into the sand

He spoke to me in the still small place

"Run the race,"

As I looked down and saw all the footprints of

the people who went before me

running their own race

one foot in front of the other

…let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith… Hebrews 12:1-2, NKJV
