  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Anyone reading Jesus > Religion?

    I would love to get a group of people together and go over the discussion questions after each chapter. If you've never heard of this book, I highly recommend it! Jefferson Bethke is best known for his YouTube video "Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus."

    My brain gets in the way of my heart

    My best friend is female and I am male. We started our friendship with a mutual attraction of one another. She is Christian and at the time, I was not. We started to become cuddle buddies and it was just that cuddling and kissing. One day it all abruptly stopped after we both realized that if we...

    Christian metal, post some songs/videos.

    If you haven't heard the new song by For Today called Crown of Thorns you must give it a try. I would say hands down the best Christian metal song I have ever heard.

    Love EVERYONE in Heaven?

    I personally do not think that is enough to enter heaven. Repenting out of fear is not the same as repenting out of love.

    Love EVERYONE in Heaven?

    Who's to say you will get into heaven if you don't forgive and find peace in someone here on earth before your worldly death? Mark 12:31 "The second is this, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these." This life is about living to the...

    How do you stay humble being single?

    I have my moments of being happily single and then those moments where I find myself watching a Golden Girls marathon while eating Oreos and having a glass of wine... I know it's not the manliest thing ever but it happens. Lately when I find that the Golden Girls aren't on, I'll turn to my...

    I've got tattoos and gauged ears... Ask me anything.

    From personal experiences, I do have a few tattoos that I feel will not help me with the career path I would like to be on (child mentor). Make sure it is what you want and is something that people around you will not question you as a Christian. The only way to prepare for a tattoo is to have...

    To use or not to use online dating?

    First I would like to say that I've been single for about two years now after my ex-fiancé decided she wanted her career instead of a family. This is after 4.5 years of a relationship, a year into planning a wedding, 6 months away from the wedding, and one day after picking up her wedding dress...

    I've got tattoos and gauged ears... Ask me anything.

    I am a 25 year old newly committed follower of Jesus Christ. I have 10 tattoos and my ears are gauged to 5/8. I consider myself a good example to young men due to what I have been through and where I want to be not only with my faith, but also with the life path God is pulling me to. Ask Away!

    To use or not to use online dating?

    I am also a 25 year old fully committed follower of Jesus. I have tried the dating sites and my area is not good for what I am looking for. Proverbs 31:30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. The pastor at the church I attend had a...

    What's Your Favourite Bible Verse?

    Exactly mine! Haha and I am partial to Ephesians 2:8 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.
