We had the service overseer come round with pile of application forms in his hand. Asked me if I wanted one... I just looked at them, bristled and said 'no thanks, if I want one I'll come to you....' he went away rather sheepishly to find his next victim.

LITERATURE CONTRADICTION
by The Searcher inany fellow active witnesses lurking?
- meditate on these publications, and then draw your own conclusions.. which page should we rip out - the all scripture inspired page, or the insight book page?.
one is clearly a lie!

Matthew and John were written by his apostles, who were with Jesus and so would know what happened and when because they were there. Luke wasn't, he was only writing from heresay from what the apostles told him happened.

OH Loz! I feel for you!! It had been pretty cold here hasn't it? And snow tomorrow.... I really hope you can get rid of the pain! Stay indoors in the warm for the next few days, take as many painkillers as you're able to and move around gently... don't stay in one place.

Question on Parenting........
by on the rocks inwhats the most effective way of teaching a 6 yr old on values?.
-
tornapart
I remember when one of mine when he was about 6 stole something from his teacher and hid it at home. I found it and asked him about it. He got uncomfortable and I discovered the truth. I took him to his teacher the next day and asked to see her privately and got him him to own up to her, to return what he'd stolen and to apologise to her. Believe me he was so embarrassed he never tried it again.

I am new here and need help...or just a listening ear
by Fallingaway inmy husband and i have two small children, one of which recently became an unbaptised publisher and joined the school.
my husband is an elder and firmly committed to our family and loves me deeply as i love him.
i would like to find a way for all of us to fade away as we have family in the organization that we do not want to lose.

Hello fallingaway. I really feel for you and understand where you're coming from. I too am an elder's wife but with grown up children, my husband also knows how I feel about things and all my doubts and questions. I too still go because of family (as well as lifelong friends). It's a hard place to be. I believe myself that losing faith in a religious organisation does not mean also having to lose faith in God. For some it does happen but I've managed to hold on to it through prayer and bible reading, as well as reading other many christian websites on topics I had a struggle understanding. They have been great! Also this place is great for being able to have a rant and get things off your chest!
