• 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.

Some stuff...

God is...

He is a friend to the friendless,
He is with us for eternity.

He is a father to the fatherless,
He is the Holy Father.

He is a voice for the voiceless,
He is the Lion of Judah.

He is a name for the nameless,
He calls us His Children.



Ode to Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ, my lord and savior,
Without you I am dead.

Not to the fires of Hell I go,
But through your fires I see gold.

As I sink into the darkness of insanity,
You are my anchor and my light.

Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior,
With you I am made alive.

Do these even count as poetry? :o

I Know the Feeling



To feel a million miles distant

In a crowded room.

I know the feeling.



To resist the darkness,

Even though it’s the easiest thing in the World.

I know the feeling.



To have on the proverbial haz-mat suit

To approach the purest thing in all Creation.

I know the feeling.



To barely touch the hem of the Saviour’s garment with bare fingers,

And be totally set free from guilt, shame, and unworthiness

Yeah, I know the feeling.

The Cat-herder's Prayer

1 The LORD is my cat-herder, I shall not be in want.


2 He makes me lie down on top of warm televisions,

He leads me beside the fresh water bowl,



3 He restores my soul.

He guides me in paths of righteousness

for His name's sake.



4 Even though I run

In front of a speeding car,

I will fear no evil,

For you will run out into the street and fetch me;

Your patting and scratching behind my ears,

That comforts me.



5 You prepare a food bowl before me

In the presence of those other cats.

You anoint my head with pats;

And I start purring.



6 Surely goodness and love will follow me

All the days of my life,

And I will dwell in the house of the LORD

Forever.
