  • 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 found the sermon at last week's Mass interesting. It was about talents and how we should use our talents in ways that will serve God. It was also about the qualities of a good Christian woman and how these are the qualities for a man to look for in a woman to marry.

At last week's Mass, the priest talked about this in his sermon: Ask Jesus to heal you from your health issues, and also ask Him to help you serve others. I thought it was a very good idea and did it myself last night. Just thought I'd share that with you. :)

Paul Washer has a few good sermons. Perhaps the only pastor I ever cared to even listen too.
Interesting. I find that surprising considering he's been know to preach fire and brimstone.

fear is good office work to prepare a heart for grace, i guess.
Eh, he didn't sugar coat things. Doesn't mean he had no love or care in him. One of the few genuine Christians around.

Ironically it wasn't until I became a Christian that I found other Christians I admire. Most being catholic Nuns and Monks. Sadly during my actual faith I was surrounded by phony and shallow people, and always felt spiritually lonely.

I like you. You've got a good heart. I believe before it's over the Lord's going to draw you back and you'll know His love and have the assurance you'll spend eternity with Him in Heaven.

Maybe you weren't spiritually lonely, but actually Catholic and would find home there ;)

Man, that really hits me because I felt exactly that a long time ago, but I couldn't bring myself to deny God's existence. You were me a long time ago.
