and by the way, if BreadOfLife is "bread man" than you're "candy man". I can't see your first name without thinking of Rolo @BreadOfLife

This is simply my 2 cents... One day someone may be looking over your life, your social media post, comments, etc. and will think, surely this person was not saved! We've all done / said things that were wrong but that does not mean that is a fully accurate description of us. We see snapshots of...

Lol, there are things that are simply “not my thing” either. Many disliked my wife where we originally went to church since she wasn’t your original “southern homemaker” who stayed home with kids but has her own business. I am the leader of our marriage but not the dictator, Christ is my head...

God buried Moses (Deut. 34:5-7) Moses was such an incredible servant of the LORD that Satan was still wanting to get him after he died.

A good conversation is always good. It helps us grow. As I’ve heard “ByGrace” say, I don’t like putting God in a box, and that’s a outlook to have. Clearly God’s ways are higher than anything we can know in every full detail. I believe it’s good that we leave room to grow. I’m young, I have...

@BreadOfLife is my best friend here. :cool::rolleyes::D We don't agree on everything but that's ok, I like the dude.

It is still in the DSM-5. It just got moved under personality disorder. My wife is a therapist, I see the book laying around the house when she brings it home sometimes. It's interesting material. Narcissistic Personality Disorder DSM-5 301.81 (F60.81) I do agree that empathy is something...

Quick question: Which version of the DSM was it removed from, the 5th one? Just wondering. I find it interesting.

As a chaplain I'm only going to be making around 40k a year before taxes. So lets break it down, if my wife is simply a homemaker watching the kids. -We will need two cars: She can't be stranded at home with no transportation (Dr. appointments, errands, emergencies, etc.) -We will need two...

My sister is paying nearly 2k alone for rent where she is.

Society has changed and things are not what they were when our parents were younger. Even without material items the cost of living has greatly increased. It's not impossible depending on where you live and if you have a great job but there are many people in our area who simply cannot survive...

Can you clarify this statement? When the word home maker is used, is it suggesting that the wife is to be just at home, not working at a job, and raising the kids? Very few households can manage to live off 1 income nowadays especially if children are included.

Thank you for your reply, I greatly appreciate it! I will check out those links you posted.

So I should go to the Kingdom Hall? And I'm not constrained, I'm open with what I personal believe with them. I didn't say it was a bad church or that I'm miserable there, I'm just asking for insight on this subject.

I'm not CoC, There is literally not many options where we live. For the time being we have to do what we can until I graduate in December and possibly relocate.

@101G Thank you for your rely and the great insight that you offered through your time of study! I never thought of the role as a pastor as a "gift".

Well said

I will be praying about it! Thank you for your input and insight! I really do appreciate it! :)
