Wow! Super impressive. The map is very cluttered until I get rid of the historical markers and defunct congregations. Then it thins out a lot :( This makes it seem like a very diminished church, but I'm not sure if that is an accurate assessment. Some of the brothers and sisters in my church are fo...

Just a couple thoughts: Actually Jesus does mention clothing (even on the sermon on the mount!) Matthew 6: 25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.

But more importantly, the Spiritual blessings. Salvation- no matter how vile I was, God redeems! No longer a slave to sin, and the giving of His Spirit which turns even the most difficult trials into blessings.

I'm a horrible person, but I avoid such people. There is no point in trying to converse with someone who has all the answers. When the know-it-all person is a family member, possibly a sibling, it is difficult to avoid them. Fortunately the conversations aren't one on one, but in a group setting. H...

At what point does one stop giving bad situations "another six months" or another chance to prove something good can come out of a relationship? When I was younger I really had a hard time accepting that you just can't please everyone so I got myself wrapped up in friendships that were to...
