It's starting to be a strange end of the year. Strange in that there are things going on that are 'heavy' and just need prayer fr the people involved. We had a team member at work die from overdose last weekend, and a few (unspoken) things are happening with others in my 'circle' that really...

Post your favorite, current, "who cares??" news articles here. :) Having read the articles is not a prerequisite Why Jennifer Lopez Said No To Scientology

O.M.G... :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

So, has anyone read any of what they consider to be Christian classics? I've read many C.S. Lewis books - I was hooked on the Narnia stories when I was a kid, but maybe didn't fully understand the theological points behind them. When I revisited them as an adult it shed a whole new night on the...

Not even confirmed yet, and it's already started: If Kavanaugh is confirmed, impeachment could follow. Here’s how. So I say "everyone out and start over". President, VP, Joint Chiefs, senators, representatives, advisers, lobbyists, CNN/MSNBC/Fox News correspondents, Ted Nugent, Stephen...

A true scenario: My parents had me baptised as an infant in the Presbyterian church (PCUSA), obviously without my "consent". This was "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit". I was not submerged in a pool, but rather sprinkled or some such method. I was (at some point)...

In reciting the Apostle's creed, I will tend to recite it as: However, my particular church has it printed as (and most recite it as) "the holy Christian church". If/when you recite the creed, what do you say, and why? My decision to state it as the holy catholic (small "c") church is the same...

I receive daily meditations from Lutheran Hour Ministries in my email. Most of the time they're quite beneficial, but every once in a while there's a statement or an idea that just seems "off". The meditation today contained this statement: As Christians, are we merely "reclaimed and...

Having read too many of these articles from the "Eat This... Not That" bozos (actually, some of it is okay, but they do go for the 'guilt' factor), I thought a health "game" would be fun! Here are the guidelines: 1) Someone will ask "What happens to your body when _____" and fills in the...

This just in from New Zealand! 'Bleeding' vegan burger is an 'existential threat' to beef industry, warns New Zealand MP

Kylie Jenner just made the cover of 'Forbes' magazine as one of the richest "self-made" female Billionaires. Kylie. Jenner. Self-made, or do you suppose she had some help due to upbringing early on? Her mother gets a tidy 10% of her children's income. Do you suppose that mom might have had a bit...

I was intrigued by this post in another thread (re-posted here with permission). What are we to do with "literal" biblical interpretation? Does one's perception of what is "literal" change over time (e.g. reading scripture as allegory, or along a continuum instead) when studying biblical text...

So... What are YOU doing? - Part 5 I'm at a coffee house working on a final exam and listening to "Coffee Table Jazz" on Spotify. So... What are you doing? :) This is a continuation thread, the old thread is 1047 by ImaginaryDay2 Titled So... What are YOU doing? This is a continuation...

Governor orders probe of abuse claims by immigrant children Just for information

Saputo urges end to milk ingredients pricing system opposed by U.S. "Canada matches dairy production to domestic consumption, yielding less than 10 per cent of the market to imports. Above quotas, imported dairy faces tariffs of up to 314 per cent." But, you know Trump. He's crazy and has no...

Josiah I've seen, in certain posts, use of the term "Justification (narrow)" as well as statements prefaced by "The Lutheran view/Luther's view on...'XYZ'". These statements are followed by significantly long posts outlining a specific POV that you have identified as the "Lutheran/Luther's...

Come in for a cup! :coffee:

Just started "The Pilgrims' Progress". One of the 'classics' I've never read. Enjoyable so far. Reading the original version, not a modern translation.
