Discerning Actions
On Sunday I visited another church and there was someone playing a piece that she created. It was very beautiful and I thought it brought about some much needed reflection on being still before God. At the end of her so… -
My Distraction
So I'm a Christian and I love God. I try to do good things to show his love. However, sometimes these good things can get in the way of me serving God. I am somewhat a perfectionist and when I'm dedicated to a task I p… -
If you have given or received a marriage proposal, will you share the story?
So, one day we had a scavenger hunt in the city and one of the high points item was to get a picture on St. Patrick's Cathedral steps of someone on your team proposing to a stranger. We thought it would be a better sho… -

What would you do if a zombie outbreak occured?
I guess it depends on the Zombie universe I'm in ... if it's like the horror shows I'd probably run and stock up on Zombie fighting gear. If it's like the ones in Generation Dead I'd probably make friends and if it's lik… -
Christian Culture

How Great is our God?

If you had to be stuck in an elevator for 2 days with someone, who would it be and why?
Man this is really hard. See, the Christian thing to say would be Jesus, but seeing as he's God and all he could, you know, make the lift work. The sarcastic thing to say would be no one, but then for two days I'd get… -
Old men dreams
I came to know Christ at a very early age. I've had situations happen to me since that people might probably rationalize away, however, I have experienced them and they are very real to me and they remind me that God lo… -

What is the appropriate age to let a child have a cell phone?
mm ... this is hard. My siblings got phones when they started junior high. I think that the answer depends on the child. If they are responsible I don't see why they shouldn't have one. It is a very good thing to have in… -

Is there a specific epithet, slang term or curse word that you absolutely cannot stand?
hmmm .. I don't really have something that REALLY annoys me, but I think the thing that gets under my nerves is when people feel the need to use some sort of swear word as their noun, verb and adjective. I just answ… -

Hiking uphill

What If I Stumble?
The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today Is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips Then walk out the door and deny him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbeliev… -
The more I seek You
As we choose to seek his face, we find that he is there just waiting for us and ready to show us more of who he is. All he asks is for our hearts to be in it. It's not what we look like on the outside but it's the matte… -
It's time to grow up now
I once heard the comment said, "The only difference between a Christian and someone who isn't is that we realized we need Jesus." I beg to differ. I know that sometimes it seems that way, but there is more to being a… -
