    Is Starbucks a Good Place to Meet Single Women?

    I do think there is a little something to your post there that I need to hear. There were/are other confounding factors, though. For example, in the story in question, the guy was also a little young for me and I didn't want to embarrass him if he was just being friendly. I'm also looking for...

    It's Ok. I didn't figure it was an intentional slight, but thanks for the apology anyway.

    New from WA State, looking to share and/or find my God match.

    Thanks for asking and for recognizing the hard work. Though really, I find my current position to be almost play. I mean who gets paid to share one of their favorite hobbies with some adorable new friends? Actually I am a state certified teacher to teach in the sciences, but God and I do our...

    Feast Of Tabernacles - Sukkot

    I'm glad you know about the Feast of Tabernacles, and it looks like you have a lot of good info to share. Most Christians dismiss them as for ancient Israel, but the fact that Passover had significance with Jesus' crucifixion, and Pentecost was the coming of the Holy Spirit should be a clue that...

    You have no reason to worry about me. I know the Lord Jesus very well, but the term 'Christian' has come to mean 'follower of Christiandom' rather than 'follower of Christ.' There is more to my response than that, in that in following Christ, God has taken me to some pretty surprising places...

    Is Starbucks a Good Place to Meet Single Women?

    Oh yeah. I discovered the Starbucks breakfasts when I traveled with my mom and friends to the east coast and all of them wanted to sleep till noon everyday, and Starbucks next to our hotel saved me from starvation. And I don't drink coffee. It was rather strange, though, being in D.C. and...

    Is Starbucks a Good Place to Meet Single Women?

    I would be curious to know if you are 3,000 miles away (I'm in WA, USA), but judging by how many cousins I have, we may very well be related.

    Yes actually. I recently started teaching a children's ballet class and take swing dance lessons myself.

    Dreams and visions

    Thank you for asking. Let's see. First off, my mindset was more one of knowing that there is a lot I don't know. I was not really raised around such things and I was young. I would hear distant reports and would wonder. I would read my Bible and didn't know what to make of 1 Corinthians 12 or...

    Dreams and visions

    Not all prophecy is about believing. For me, gifts of the spirit didn't show up for years after I believed.

    Dreams and visions

    John, I appreciate your challenging the original poster to back-up his sentiment with scripture. I suspect he did not because there is actually a lot of it. It is especially apparent in Acts, and 1 Corinthians 12-14 but it is actually quite abundant throughout the New Testament. I can somewhat...

    Dreams and visions

    I am curious to hear of other people’s experiences. Are there any dreams or visions u wish to share via a comment on this post? Yes. See below. What did you pray to gain a vision or dream from God? I have never initiated the dream or vision though I have heard that some can ask God for one...

    Dreams and visions

    I appreciate your honesty, but dreams and visions are a very real experience of the Christian walk independent of any herbs. Consider that as we read in 1 Corinthians 12, people have different callings, and some of these callings are more likely to have dreams and visions. They also come when...

    Is Starbucks a Good Place to Meet Single Women?

    Is it a one-way thing, because I haven't met any eligable Christian men at such places? My experience suggests that unmarried Christian men between the ages of 25 and 65 don't exist unless they are my relatives, developmentally delayed, or 3,000 Miles away. In hindsight, though, I should have...

    Is a College Degree/Advanced Education Expense Worth the Price?

    College is only worth it if God is guiding there, and even then this may not be worth it by worldly standards. As young adults, both me and a friend dreamed of both going to college, and getting married and having kids. For me God flung opened the college door but closed up the family one. For...
