I need to do something important, like a legal matter, like writing a will, or filing paperwork, something like that. I'm in fine health, and emotionally OK, blessed in God, loving God and the body of Christ. However, it seems like taking this action will radically change my life in a better...

Has anyone here ever tried the groups Underearners' Anonymous or Debtors' Anonymous? I am by no means poor but I'm a composer and writer and try to have time for ministry focus. I decided that to have more time for my arts, trying to be successful with a small business would be the ideal, if...

I have a huge buy and sell inventory of books, vinyl records, art objects and other things I seemed to have a cluttering, "oh I should keep," this attitude for a long time, not realizing what I was doing. I pray for a spirit to put things in lots, have a wholesale mindset, and even liquidating...

Greetings, I'm the author at Telical Books. I have finished another book and looking for a proofreader. Please contact me if you have a careful eye for typos. Thanks.

Have you heard of "social capital"? It's a new term used in academia to describe people's relationships. (you would have to google it to get more information on it). It seems in the early church (and now in cults) social capital was high for new converts. Now it seems harder for people...

Excuse me if this was posted before. I tried to do that but I cannot find the thread. Public High School Vinyl LP From Washington 1960's Many Christian Songs This is one of many American public High School vinyl albums that were put out in the 1960s to 1980s that have many blatant Christian...

Public High School Vinyl LP From Washington 1960's Many Christian Songs This is one of many American public High School vinyl albums that were put out in the 1960s to 1980s that have many blatant Christian songs. They show that freedom of religion in America does not mean freedom from religion...

I thought of an interesting phrase, "Genteel Brutality" like the way a lot of rich have the corner on empowering the poor, like the Bible says, "you did not strengthen the arm of the poor."

It's pretty obvious that we are in a time of oppression of the poor. You can do a Bible study on this topic. It's overwhelming the amount of verses you will find if you do a google search on it. What is the Christian response to this? Are we so fallen that we are so full of fear of the...

Social Capital is the new buzz phrase by social scientists. Essentially, a homeless person has pretty much zero social capital. It can be defined in different ways, and I believe a spiritual definition is in order. The top definition that comes up in google is: "the networks of relationships...

If you go to youtube and search on keywords like xian, psych, folk, and loner, you come up with about fifty artists from the 70s that didn't make it during that time but put out excellent music. In fact, many of these records are now selling for $300 to over $1000. The sad fact is that these...

There was this homeless woman I was trying to help. She was dressed very nice, and took care of her physical appearance, but she was an alcoholic and psychotic. She would ramble on and on, talking to herself, and when you listened to what she said it was about how she owned million dollar real...

For some reason, I haven't gotten many likes here. I think Satan is behind this obviously.....lol I usually am a servant at the congregations I have gone to and try to be a helpful person.

I am not sure if other Christians have tried to get recovery in these groups. I was involved for about five years but I found that it was hard to be in a very hard core group of people who were actively saying things against Christianity and professing a lot of New Age/Occult beliefs. I also...

It's really sad for me to see when parents don't take any responsibility about how their children turned out. It's even sadder when these parents are very legalistic Christian who you think should know better. If they could humble themselves, and not be so hard, then maybe their kids would not...

Greetings, I'm a Christian author and I'm looking to find two encouragers who can hold me accountable for publishing a new book I wrote on revival. I don't want to promote my works here but would like to talk to those who are interested in the publishing world and who might themselves be...

I'm interested in creating all kinds of musical projects for ministry. I'm interested in creative ideas in classical, soundtrack, and other types of music that present a backdrop for a message (sung or spoken text) than rock or contemporary Christian popular music. I am wondering what we...

This is a true story. "I have been secretary at a very troubled AA hall here in ________. It has a huge reputation for being a kind of "biker AA hall" without many bikers, mostly many homeless people, or people just out of jail. The problem is, as I see it, is that many of the people with...

Greetings, I'm a Christian and on the board of Singles Anonymous, a new 12 Step program focused on developing family consciousness. There is a website with information but I won't post it here because not sure of the guidelines for that. You can contact me here for more information. Best...

I have been struck with the greatness of Medieval music. It's nothing like I thought it was. I found a bunch on Youtube, such as: Heinrick Finck (1444-1527) - Wer ich eyn falck - Invicto regi Anonymous - Edi Beo Thu, Hevene Quene Anonymous - Procurans Odium Anonymous (13th century) -...
