Dear Clint, The first advice I give anyone or any group wanting to minister in this type of area is pray, pray, pray, fast, pray, fast & pray some more. You want to be very SURE that God has called you to do this. He'll direct you where you to do & what to do. Secondly, we NEVER allow men...

:wave: I just wanted to say 'hi' to everybody. I have literally not been on here in almost a year.....sorry. :sorry: Time flies! I was looking through my last threads & it was right after we lost our ministry website & I had to rebuild it. Then God had me create a myspace page...which He has...

Hi Datlanir - Welcome to CF. What an awesome testimony. That is great what you are doing in Dallas....what God is doing & how He's using you. Bless you sister & all you influence. -Julie

Hi Joanne - The Links & Resources Page is on the left - you should see 10 pages there with bars. If you don't, scroll down to see and/or check your resolution setting under Display Properties (for PC's) - set it to at least 1152 x 870. That is the minumum resolution to view the the whole...

Hi Wonderwaleye - Thanks for your post, comments & questions. My responses are in black text.

Hey Everybody! You can view a comprehensive list of all the organizations/ministries reaching out to the sex industry on the http://www.beautyfromashes.org website - all on one page under Links & Resources. There's a list of the ones that are founded by sex industry survivors &/or run by them...

Hi Everyone! Sorry it's been so long since I posted here. I've been very busy in the past month. Our ministry website (50+ pages - 3+ years building) mysteriously vanished into cyberspace. I've had my work cut out for me. It's all back up now & better than ever. beautyfromashes.org As far...

Hi Everyone - I actually feel like me again & have resumed my normal productive activities. The creativity is back - my most recent mural is one of my best & I've loved doing it - as a matter of fact, I keep working @ it to make it even better - versus telling my client (who is already super...

Vincejohn - Testimony speaks for itself & glorifies God. Your does. And I am sorry to hear about your losses as well as the virus. I understand where you're coming from. In my opinion, the manner that you are delivering your observations & conclusions are aggressive & unsympathetic. I...

Vincejohn - We can agree to not agree. I recently received a national award, something I did not apply for, but what I would rate as 'worldly accredidation' & it has not served to make me more creative, nor did it prevent me from becoming mentally depressive or physically lethargic. I think...

From a spritual perspective, acknowledging that we do not wrestle with flesh & blood, but with spirits & principalities of darkness, attacks against us come in our weak areas. Satan & his coherts don't attack us where we are strong, so being bi-polar, satan will attack us in our weakened areas...

Hi Laurie, I most definitely have to get the book. It was while doing one of Beth Moore's studies that God gave me the name of the ministry He entrusted to me. I think that prayer is key to ministry involvement. I trust God to be in control of those opportunities & that He'll give me the...

Hi Laurie, Thank you very much for insight & experiential sharing. You hit the nail right on the head as far as what I am experiencing. I am also experiencing difficulty sleeping & then it's real hard for me to wake up.....or shall I say get up. I used to get up around 5:30 to fix my...

Hi Laurie, Thanks for the encouraging post. I appreciate your insight. I don't think that my faith will be lessoned. I know that in my weakness He is made strong. I've felt like I have a lack of energy, not necessarily depression, but just a lack of energy in the past couple of weeks. I don't...

SomethingNewandDifferent, I never meant to offend you with my honesty. Please forgive me. NONE of us will ever be completely be healed until we pass into glory....whether you've been diagnosed with a disease or not. That is not going to stop me from proclaiming it(healing through the word...

Hi - I'm 40, almost 41 & was recently (2 weeks ago) diagnosed as being bi-polar by my physician of 2+ years. I read through some of the threads here & decided to take a step of courage & start my own thread. It's great that we have a 'safe' place to come, meet one another, share stories, &...

Hi Peacechild - It's been forever since I was online here - how is going with Wendy. I pray that God will fill her heart with a love for Him that transforms her & that He impart to you a double portion of wisdom & understanding as you reach out to her in Jesus name. -julietheartist

Hi Athalia, I understand your desire to acquire your college degree & feeling like stripping is a logical & rational solution to helping obtain this goal, even being Christian. I'm glad you asked & are seeking wisdom & direction in making this decision. I have been right where you are...

Thanks for your prayers. Kibbles is doing better, so much so that I even put her back in bed with us (my husband & I) last nite. Hubby was a little hesitant, but let me do it as he knows she's been sleeping with me for over 14 years. Because of all her recent 'accidents' we opted to put her...

Dear Brokengirl, It was a brave thing for you to come her and share your heart asking for help. I feel for you as I've been in your shoes. I so desperately wanted a relationship(s) with guys to work that I would do anything to be loved by them. They all ended in heartache until I gave my...
