    Ahh, good to be back!

    Yeah sometimes names can develop independently within language branches. It's pretty neat. Jesus is an interesting one to study for that reason. It is different in the original Hebrew, but how it's different in different languages is interesting. It requires somewhat beneath the surface study...

    Ahh, good to be back!

    MendedSoul is a nice name. Care to explain the significance to you? Or Stratton. I'm usually pretty curious into the reason why people picked their names.

    Views/Scripture on Diseases

    I think that when the body is out of alignment (unhealthy) it can cause a person to be more open to causality in a way that a direct spiritual affliction/oppression is an option. I personally think the enemy uses this to almost "taunt" believers into doubts that are unproductive. The few times...

    Views/Scripture on Diseases

    Interesting. This topic has been on my mind lately from a thread I think a week or so ago (I don't recall which) and also an autoimmune condition that troubles me (which I will provide another motive at the end). For some reason when typing this I feel like I should probably write this more like...

    Friends

    Besides there is no reason why you can't post in the teens forum after you turn 20 ;) Much like going to a college group at a church when you aren't 30 but have already graduated. Mostly just a guideline. The young adults forum is also an option. There's no harm in getting to know people in...

    A local pastors advice troubles me...

    *TIME LIMITED* :( alas, anyway...you could be the type of person who is able to do 2 chapters a day consistently in order for years at a time. I'm not one of those people. I think it's wise to have a healthy helping of the more scholarly side of study but for the most part that's...

    A local pastors advice troubles me...

    Vary things up. Reading aloud is quite different than silent reading. Writing out a passage is different than typing. A fancy pen is different than a pencil. Writing on flash cards is different than stationary, etc etc. None of these are better than another (depending) but memorization is a...

    Mega Church or No Name Church

    And yet, there were many people (almost everyone, us included) that just has to have faith in the Lord of the substantive nature of these events. We are basing this discussion on the belief that they occurred back then, why would today be any different? I personally am rather against video...

    Do men prefer women who don't chase...at all?!

    I am not a stranger to flowers, but for me, it's something of an act of gallantry when I already know the person and it wouldn't be awkward or too "forward" from my perspective. I've given my mother flowers many times (fresh picked). So it just seems like ships passing in the night. It's...

    Mega Church or No Name Church

    This statement gets a solid agreement from me. Mirrors my heart on the issue exactly. The process is almost always different, but I personally love hearing testimonies of that sort of thing :) I do get concerned when someone is sort of caught up in something like that, and I am learning to be...

    Mega Church or No Name Church

    If nothing else sometimes a lack of sound leadership and a system of accountability.

    Seeking wisdom about dating someone who struggles with porn

    That is awesome to hear! Thanks you for sharing. If it means anything from a random person on the internet I am thankful that you both have pursued wisdom on this issue as that is uncommon in today's world but it is an encouragement.

    Alphabet Game

    That's the free form, you all are doing great...it's whatever theme fits with the letters in a scriptural context. Kangaroo was probably one of the loosest I've come up with. U = Ewe would be a stretch ;) but that's in scripture I think in David's history with Uriah the hittite. hmm Understand.

    Seeking wisdom about dating someone who struggles with porn

    Alright, looks like you've had some bad advice in this thread. That is troubling and an apology makes sense. I'll give a response and it's not my intention to come across as judgemental, I can only say what my own experience has been and put myself in his position. Hopefully you aren't chased...

    Do men prefer women who don't chase...at all?!

    @Hungry I've tried social media. Technically I guess that's what this is, but not quite the same since I don't think I've met any of you in person (possible though). Usually on social media I just get "read 6:02" and no response, or a simple "like" but that's about it. I've been met with...

    Do men prefer women who don't chase...at all?!

    How does a bouquet of flowers progress? On my end that seems very forward lol. It just seems so "noticeable" to almost come across as attention seeking. Which I suppose is the point, but barring flowers? Not to say I don't like flowers myself, but usually I don't have them just for beauty and...
