Re: Blanchard, LA - Lighthouse Christian Fellowship?

Yes, all of that is on their website. Promoting the Scofield “Bible” is hardly Anabaptists. Many in Eastern, Pilgrim, and Hope Fellowship are strongly dispensationalist. It could be questioned how Anabaptist they really are. Mike Atnip discussed this problem in his Farewell editorial when he was re...

Hymn 108 "Angels, from the Realms of Glory" Source?

I am wondering if anybody can tell me what hymnal this comes from. I have attached an image, but it's all I have and I am looking for the larger book. Thanks in advance.

Re: More resources needed please

There might be some free stuff from Christian Light Publications or Rod and Staff. I'll post here if I find anything.

Re: Are some people just prone to being hurt?

Above all, it's important to show love to brothers and sisters. It's not our job to become psycho-analysists. We shouldn't try to sift out obscure motives, root causes, and legitimacies. Our job is, however, to love one another. True, But sometimes that love needs to be tough love. Amen- "As p...

Re: Kingdom Fellowship Weekend 2017

I'd also like to know about the event, I've never been to a gathering larger than my local house church. (For anyone who's interested, there are recordings on their website, kingdomfellowshipweekend.org)

Re: Comprehensive List of Churches/History

A lot of them were approved before obamacare (the databse says 2005 for many of them.)

Re: Conversing with Conservative Anabaptists

I've definitely found that to be true, even though I'm much closer in age to the younger folks than the older on...

Re: Are some people just prone to being hurt?

I do see what you all mean about people having thinner skin sometimes. But some people are more sensitive than others and that doesn't make them weak. I treat my parents differently than I treat my classmates, and I treat my more sensitive friends more gently than I treat those who can take some jok...

Re: Francis's miscellaneous history thread

I went on thearda.com (association of religious data archives) and found another supposed mennonite "family tree"
There's also some interesting membership info here (same source, nothing specific) http://www.thearda.com/denoms/families/F_95.asp
