    Friends in the Faith

    Hello everyone. I imagine that I'm not the only person struggling with this, but I am a 16-year-old girl and rather introverted. Although I won't push people away when trying to start a conversation, I'm not normally the type to go up to people and say "hello". I try to be friendly...

    Disgust for "Church Youth" groups

    Some little background: I was born and grew up in a Christian family, and while we did have some testing and difficulties at some point, just like in any family, I never stopped wishing to become a true Christian man, with strong feelings of love and commitment for God and country. Outside...

    Low Biblical Literacy

    I recently started working as a youth leader at a small church. Over the past couple weeks, I've noticed that most of the students (about 4 or 5 middle schoolers) had alarming low Bible literacy and knowledge. I have done things such as Bible drills and Bible Jeopardy as fun ways to slowly...

    The Pain Of Watching Non-believers

    Oh the pain! Its such a shame! Each day, I attend school, and see all the boys and girls going about their days. I see them with light hearts, roaming, and cheering, unaware of the sins they commit, and transgressions against God's word. I look at them with repulsion, hiding the fact that I...

    I'm at a loss for words

    I'm so afraid everyday I wake up always thinking about where I'm going to go when I die. I don't want to go to hell I want to go to heaven. But the choices I make from a day to day basis don't say so. If youve seen in my past couple post I haven't repented. I used to care but now I don't. I want...

    Do you ever wish?

    do you ever wish you were like David or Abraham or Jacob lr Joshua? Who in their own free will followed God? Or even the 11 disciples? Who in their own free will followed Jesus our God. Who had a spirit of boldness and were able to conquer many things. But instead I'm not like them. I'm like a...

    Pray for Me.

    I think I'm starting to go crazy. I don't sleep. The world is beginning to feel numb. I cursed at my parents and I dishonor them. I'm so scared, I shouldn't have but I was so angry. I always feel bad. I'm starting to become this evil person. It's like the old me is looking at myself through a...

    Is time too short?

    Today I spent the time thinking that if I were to die today heaven would not be the place where I am going. Although Christ is who I profess as lord and I believe God raised him from the dead. I'm living in darkness (in my sin.) I'm so stubborn I don't want to give up my pleasurable youthful...

    Dauhter thinks she's bisexual

    I need advice. I recently read a note my 12 year old wrote saying she is bisexual. I was in complete shock. She has always been super boy crazy but also tends to idolize people/girls and has always become obsessed with things easily (actors, animals, topics, etc). Slightly OCD I think. Anyway...

    Doubts and Fears

    Over the past several months: I used to never miss church, and I loved going and worshiping, and learning from the preaching. Then it started to become easier to miss and didn't seem as important. And when I did go, my heart wasn't in it. I would lift my hands and pray but it's like I didn't...

    Prayer for a Teen - The Hard Side of Adolescence

    Warning: This is a LONG story, so please be prepared. Every since I was a small girl I've had things happen to me that could only be described as miracles. I was blessed with a Godly intuition that always seemed to keep me out of trouble at just the right time. This intuition could even go to...

    Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ)

    I think some of you have heard of this religion. I'm a born-again, or so my mom says, and because I go to a born-again church. But the problem is, my boyfriend is an Iglesia ni Cristo. My mom doesn't want him. My mom hates that religion. Even though she won't say it directly, I can feel it...
