  • 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'd like to be involved in the missions field but I don't know how to go about it. You need money for this kind of thing and I'm relatively poor. I'm tired of worrying about my own problems though and would like to spend my time helping others. Our time on this planet is short.

While money is important, the money doesn't always to come from you. Pray about it, contact various sources and friends and God will provide.
What is important is that you have the heart to do it. For example, we built a church, and all I had to do is pray about it to come to pass and communicate the message to various groups. It may take time, but if you press on it will come to pass.

Actually, I am not a preacher but a fellow christian. I am involved in a nonprofit that helps a poor village in Africa and that's through church friends that we were able to raise funds to build the church in Africa.
If you are planning to go to overseas, you might come up with a few fundraising ideas and start work on them.
