I didn’t sign up for PPP because of that exact language. In retrospect, I left a lot of money on the table… and I agree with ks here, anyone who took PPP funds had better not ever complain about much cheaper forms of welfare for poor people. PPP handouts were often in the millions, paid directly to...

Well, I was eating with some Nationwide people, one of the NMBs said he had to give up his job as a fire alarm installer. That blew my mind. Meanwhile, I am helping a 9th grader with an acceleration problem that requires square roots. His teacher apparently was not able to explain the formula or how...

Probably won’t. But any suggestions that have worked are better than no ideas at all. Maybe someone else has a better one? Well, I’ve basically accepted that it’s just the way things are. If I was in a Baptist church I’d have even less fellowship, I’d probably have friends though. I wish I could he...

I see the bigger issue is jealousy… Mennonites have a great social/community but it’s basically built around family lines. They have no experience integrating anyone into their own family and have plenty of church fellowship throughout the week built into work and numerous family activities. Extra ...

Just teach in the school, even part time, and you will have plenty of fellowship. Our church is a fairly new one, so not everyone is related to anyone. I suspect that helps, my wife are not the only NMBs in our church. I’m open to teaching things like math and science but my English skills are subp...

Barring something like a history of divorce, why can't one adapt? It is largely a matter of the will.

Who are you in agreement with, O great Hasmonean? “” The Israel of today is not in covenant relationship with YHWH and hasn't been for nearly 2000 years.”” Exactly! Zionism has clouded the vision of the evangelical world. The present nation of Israel has no more or less favor with God than any othe...

Even better, get a two year degree at the local community college, which leads to licensure as an RN. Conceivably that could be done with little or no debt. That is how my wife did it. THAN get your employer to pay for all or part of your RN to BSN program. Many, if not most will do that. Wife did ...

My hat is off to all those who are attempting to do this in a humble way. But it so rare that people get integrated, that I have decided to give at least a portion of the remainder of my life to helping those who probably won't ever make it, and simply help them tweak their culture in a way that is...
