• 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.

  • 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

Hi, I am Larry McDowell and interested in the forum as an educator in a missions related bible college. I am a licensed and ordained minister in the Baptist denomination, currently serving in a bible school. I retired after 20 years of service in the Army, then programmed for many years. During that time, I was in music ministry part-time for several decades since the age of 15 in churches and chapels on three continents. I received the call to pastoral ministry late in life. I became Outreach Leader of my first church in ministry, Assistant Pastor of another, then spent time as senior pastor of yet another church until I founded a Bible college. I used my computer degree, programming experience, and college teaching experience from six colleges and universities, along with three seminary degrees to create the classroom, administration and curriculum of a fully-functional online bible college. We are always looking for more volunteer instructors to meet the needs and keep costs free for our students, so if you have a graduate degree of any type from a reputable college or university, send me a note a LarryMcDowell@mcdowellbiblecollege.org. You can take on as much as you want as an instructor, or simply grade a class's assignments each week. It has been a rewarding experience for me to help pastors around the world to train more for their ministry and I know it would be for you as well.

Welcome to Christian Forums. We have Bible readers. An occasional pastor or missionary also shared information.
