Re: (Not quite) A year of living.

Good morning All, We were blessed with a lovely day on a mountainside for Wayne's service and burial. Near the end of filling and covering his grave, it was very real that this was Easter: He is not here . Praise God for the hope we have in Him. https://i.imgur.com/qNBaSog.jpg Blessings, Betty ✝️

p.10 / Evangelization Re: Bunny Trails

It depends entirely on the job in question. I can understand how it wouldn’t work for a public school teacher to keep his job if he were to be sharing the kingdom of God with his students. But then again, neither are we called to put our job before Christ, rather we are called to forsake all! Not j...

Re: Church good at evangelization

I know a guy who worked at a local lumber company, and surrendered his life to Christ in his forties or fifties. He began witnessing to his coworkers on a regular basis. But after a while, he felt he could reach more people as a missionary. When he conveyed this to his boss, his boss begged him to ...

Re: Catholic to Anabaptist

I know nominal Catholics who joined Mennonite churches over the years. Some stay and others drift on. Thanks for staying on topic. i didn’t anticipate it would be difficult. i think i understand what you intend by “nominal” in your experience, i’m not sure those noted in this thread so far would ca...

Re: Prayer Requests & Personal Testimonies

i never expected to post anything about The Royals, any topic, i don’t follow. This reflects, cancer doesn’t discriminate, not age, location, socio-economic status. And, unfortunately, media is relentless. Once again, speculation is wrong, esp in the public arena. i see headlines, i don’t open repor...

Re: Prayer Requests & Personal Testimonies

Those of you who go back to the MennoDiscuss days will doubtless remember our dear sister Anabaptistenigma - one of the brightest minds and sincerest hearts to grace MD back in the day. Sadly, we have just learned that she has been diagnosed with stage-4 bile duct cancer metastasized around the liv...

i’m hoping for more Catholic to Anabaptist examples. Contemporary or from history.
First person is great, like the OP example, STEPHEN RUSSELL. Not required.

Re: Catholic to Anabaptist

Whoever wrote this does not seem even to have looked at even a secular history book. I will use as an example my, now falling apart "The Reformation of the Sixteenth Century" by Roland Bainton. He would say that the Anabaptist movement was "The church withdrawn" . As to Munster ...

Re: House Speaker

i’m hopeful about House Speaker Johnson. It’s early to be certain. i’m not a fan of MTG. i’m not a fan of regular threats of gov shutdowns, with zero-hour agreements. not an honorable way to do things. the fact it’s become “routine” is distasteful. the money involved is distasteful. the bills includ...
