    Storytime: Saintliness isn't boring

    The thought processes of a MC are extremely important in writing. So often it's glossed over or conversely a single thought tortured to death....and what ends up happening is that there is no depth to the character in a story or bit of what is termed "flash story" which is what this is called...

    Storytime: Saintliness isn't boring

    Great writing! Some of the best I've seen in a while. (Been in love with literature and amateur writing forever!) And I find it really echoes the mindset of a "failing" Christian Student. You captured it perfectly. Because, yes, life can be boring...and it's good when it is. The...

    What's Up With Sex?

    Where physical intimacy is part of the human experience and is pleasurable....it's not the sum total or the end result of "doing things right" It's a very small part. And those that prioritize this single activity have issues with narcissism. Building, creating positive relationships with...

    Is anyone else a Seer?

    I work for God....God doesn't work for his servants very often, nor should He.

    Is Jesus omniscient and omnipotent???

    I'm just a schmuck.... The church maybe but I'm just a schmuck who warms a pew on Sunday Morning.

    Is Jesus omniscient and omnipotent???

    When? There are a few things God cannot have. One is pleasant surprises. However, Jesus could. Review the Faith of the Centurion story in the Gospel of Luke or Matthew. Both record Jesus as shocked. Now that Jesus has ascended once again and is where He deserves to be "ALL authority...

    What Did Tony Evans Do?

    Nope.... But he does have a few non-denominational studies out there on various topics that are widely accepted. Truth is truth regardless of the source.

    What Did Tony Evans Do?

    Nobody knows for sure... That's the problem. Everything is a guess at this point. They have come against him with false accusations before...even with supposed evidence....all have been proven to be phoney. So...until I see hard proof corroborated by others I'm not really going to believe...

    What Did Tony Evans Do?

    Tony Evans ministry and products have taken a sharp nosedive since he resigned in disgrace from his role as Senior Pastor at his megachurch in Dallas. But the specifics have not been released. His son and daughter both are pastors and preaching...and apparently even though Tony claimed he...

    Do we search the scriptures or simply read our Sunday School booklets?

    Look, Especially if you attend a large church but also the smaller ones with formal literature for small group bible studies.... There exists "Christian Political Correctness". And let me try to explain... Just about every Bible student has picked out their own eschatology of some...

    My mom died June 21...have a question, pls help

    The bank is going to need a death certificate....the official one instead of photocopied. Wherever they issue them. Usually just $15-$20 per certificate. And a copy of the will....otherwise things can get difficult due to probate. (Depends on the laws in your state) In some states if...

    My mom died June 21...have a question, pls help

    Been through this with my mother and brother recently. I'm not a lawyer and things vary from state to state. All bills/debts die with them....kinda. What really matters is if she had an estate of any size or value and the money grabbing factor of those seeking money. Her creditors can...

    It Was Hard For Me To Understand Christian Modesty for Women

    I visited next door in Slovakia.... That's how I know what I know. Church membership and Baptism have no real requirements in the USA like they do there....the effects of the iron curtain still are around there. It was a real pleasure to visit Slovakia for me. And I kept looking for...

    It Was Hard For Me To Understand Christian Modesty for Women

    Where that's a fairly common thing in Moldovan culture....it's extremely uncommon in the USA. (Except for Muslims) In fact hair styling, color, and cut are usually very much a significant part of a daily routine for women here....especially the single women. The braids and braiding aren't as...

    It Was Hard For Me To Understand Christian Modesty for Women

    Nothing like those YouTube preaching couples that wear extremely expensive clothing to look outdoorsy or relaxed.... A $400 T-shirt? It's just a freaking T-shirt....but they make some that sell for that much. My favorite was this lady on YouTube showcasing her "Homesteading" lifestyle where...
