Re: Public Displays of Affection (PDA)!

I think it's nice when young and older couples in our church sit with arm around the other. One wife is 92, and needs a lot of help from her hubby. BTW, how might other people know that you're married if you're out walking with your wife? You might be running away with a girlfriend.... :D People pro...

Raisins? On a sandwich?

I have so many questions....
No, IN the sandwich. They would fall off otherwise. :D

Re: Atheists

Your dad had a profound effect on your life. Anyway, I didn't grow up in a home that believed in "witnessing to the lost" verbally. So passing out tracts or putting up signs is taboo and something I don't envision myself doing. Instead, my context is inviting the marginalized including th...

Re: Differences between Holdeman and Beachy Amish

Good to hear that women are getting into pastoral roles even through "the back door'. Pentecostals and Salvation Army and others realized years ago that God blesses and works through women just as He does through men. I grew up with a lady pastor who preached and taught many in becoming Christ...

Re: Mennonite couple charged in death of foster child

The original point was that a spanking doesn't kill a 4 year old. Something else happened.

Belt is not a normal spanking and I fail to see a 4 year ...

Re: Facebook

If relatives are not speaking to you, Facebook is a way to keep up with their news. If they haven't blocked you. Myself, I'm not on it, nor do I ever plan to be. I marvel at the selfies of some people. One pastor looking for a wife has his nine photo spots filled with selfies of himself, mostly basi...

Re: The bloodthirsty nature of the evangelical political right wing

I texted a friend this morning who "Stands for Israel" on Facebook, and called for praying Isa. 54:17 for Israel: "Jehoshaphat was reproved for making an alliance with Israel, and God destroyed his ships. Israel certainly doesn't fit into the category of servants of the Lord [Isa. 54:...
