I had some issues posting today where I've tried to submit my post but it doesn't do anything and then asks me if I want to leave the page and I have to open another window to make sure my post got posted! Then for some reason when I go to leave page it just gives me a blank one.
I have been diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease. Does anyone here have it? If so, what have you found helps you out the most concerning what you eat (for a productive life...not just weight loss)? I've read that most people avoid gluten (I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet), dairy, soy, iodine...
I just saw an ad for the title of this thread "What kills church growth?" We know it's God who grows His church but what sorts of things can prohibit the church from growing?
I know there are one or two members here who brew their own beer. Here's a thread to discuss or give tips.
My husband got a beer brewing kit for Christmas so we gave it a shot. We are sanitizing the bottles today and will bottle it tomorrow and then they'll sit for 2 weeks.
What worked for...

I wonder if there will be any mention of the Savior or forgiveness of sins? I'm doubting it so my first question was actually said dripping in sarcasm.
Do you think color plays any importance in scripture? As an artist color is important to me and I pay attention to it but haven't done much of a study on it concerning going through the bible and seeing how it's symbolic or the meaning behind it (the color) historically.
Do you have a nickname you go by? Or one you were called as you were growing up? Is it your username?
I had a few nicknames and most give by my mother...katydid, Sister Kate, Katrina. Btw, my name is Kathleen and even Kathy is a nickname I use even though a lot of times I'll still try to get...
Do you have a song that you're requesting be played at your funeral? When I was in choir our organist would always tell us when a certain song was played that THAT is a song she wanted at her funeral. Others started planning for songs too so I wonder if any of you have a special song?
I wonder how many agree with the statement The Gospel is a means of grace? What I mean by that is The gospel is the means through which the Spirit pours out God’s grace on individuals.
I had a friend who once told me he would be honored to die for the sake of Jesus. He wasn't thinking about dying from cancer or any other disease though because his mind was focused on dying from persecution by non-believers.
Clearly my friend had no idea how God would use him once he was...
I just read about a pastor who made a joke on Easter Sunday about a fat Jesus who couldn't get into the tomb because he was always eating at someone's home. The pastor was confused that he offended someone in the congregation. Would that joke have offended you?
The movie Mean Girls is about the pecking order of teenage girls. The group of girls called the Plastics thought they were better than everyone else and manipulated those around them. This movie is to the Millennials what the Breakfast club was to the 80s.
Thoughts on the movie?
Credobaptists believe in a believers baptism and are against infants being baptized. What about the people with severe disabilities? They never receive baptism that Jesus told the disciples to go out and baptize all nations?
Does anyone own an Instant Pot? I've seen friends posting about it on Facebook and it supposedly cooks food in a short amount of time. Kind of like the reverse of a crock pot?
From the book The Spirituality of the Cross by Gene Edward Veith, Jr:
"To say God is hidden, of course, does not mean that He is absent. On the contrary, someone who is hidden is actually present, just not seen. The child who is hiding in the room is certainly there. God conceals Himself, often...
