Hello all, some of you may have seen my other posts where I wrote about hearing voices. I still do; a legacy, I feel, of my long time of drug and alcohol addiction. For a while now they've been trying to convince me that they're the call to becoming an ordained Christian minister. I have no...

Hello all! please give me some ideas on where to go with this post. It's intended for "psychonauts" as some terms themselves: those who use drugs for recreation for their supposed mind-expanding properties. IMO, when you expand your mind and don't only use such sub stances medicinally, a devil...

Thank you for the Spiritual Bootcamp link. I gave it a listen, and it has helped inspire me some.

Does anyone have any good tips on how to evangelize people? I tend to be a very shy person and am -not- good at starting conversations, especially on so important subjects as faith, salvation, and our Lord. I'm a member of the evangelism team at my church. but we don't meet regularly or anything...

I have been a very sinful man in my time, and one of the things I believe that the Lord had done is visit his righteous vengeance on me. i can testify that anyone who does not fear God's wrath and vengeance is very unwise. I'm a struggling Christian. I've been constantly under attack from what i...

Asking for prayers for the two above things. My aunt had a stroke last year and I can testify that prayers to God have helped her regain the use of her legs. Thank you Lord Jesus!

When I say testing, what i meant was asking them if Jesus Christ came in the flesh, as is required in Scripture to test spirits. A lot of the time., they try to say something like "he came in the flashlight" or something along those lines. It's obvious they're trying to twist words, so I...

Actually, I ended up joining the Global Methodist Church. Anyway, time for an update: I have found that engaging the voices with Scripture has been quite helpful. Prayer also quiets them, especially when done before a crucifix I mounted up on my wall. It's a nice one, not exactly in the best...

I know I felt something in a hospital once. I was still unbaptized and a methamphetamine addict at the time, and it was Ash Wednesday, though i had not realized that beforehand. I spoke with one of the hospitals chaplains - a nice lady who's name i unfortunately don't remember. She had the...

Oh, I know all about sugar myself. I'm pre-diabetic and have to watch it too. it's all over my mom's side of the family. A couple of things that might help you mitigate your sugar intake are those fudge drizzle cookies from Kroger and The Dollar Store - they're low in sugar, but high in flavor...

Hello all, I ran across this one on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/biblexgame It's essentially a Skyrim/Elder Scrolls-style exploration game set in ancient Israel. The videos of it look pretty good. For anyone who wants to throw some donations their way via Kickstarter, here's the link to...

Whoops, made some important additions: Ah.... It was the voices I heard (and still hear) after becoming addicted to methamphetamine. I'm now off of it, thanks be to Jesus Christ, though it's still a struggle. But those voices, they don't just spout random gibberish, though at first they tried...

Ah.... It was the voices I heard (and still hear) after becoming addicted to methamphetamine. I'm now off of it, thanks be to Jesus Christ, though it's still a struggle. But those voices, they don't just spout random gibberish, though at first they tried talking like they were a US Navy officer...

Thanks, I appreciate the prayers. I'm really sure God wants me to quit smoking, so any help you and He can give in that regard is appreciated.

Be Careful of What Your Child Reads When I was a child, in middle school. I ran across some books that changed my life for the worse. I do not remember the titles, nor who published them. But, they were on drugs: marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine, etc. I read them – I was (and still am) a...

Of course you can; I don't mind it at all. May the Lord bless you in your journey with Christ.

An update: I am going to be joining the Romam Catholic Church.

An update: After much soul searching, I am no longer a Protestant. I will be attending the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, and joining the Roman Catholic Church.

Hello all, As a result of several years' worth of methamphetamine use, I began to hear voices. It was not a fun time, and is still ongoing today. I do hope, with faith in Christ, that this description of my experiences will assist some of you in dealing with similar situations in your own...

From what I've read, the Pope actually is the legitimate leader of Christandom. Christ is the head of the church, and passed on apostolic succession to Saint Peter, who became the first Pope. It's been passed down from leader to leader to the present day. Protestantism, founded by Martin Luther...
