Wow, my username is relevant!

Hi, I wanted to introduce myself. I am exploring polygyny to prepare for living and working in a traditionally polygynous community and wanted to understand polygyny better through a Christian lens. Personally I dont think my own heart would...

I feel the exact same way. I feel so out of place in church everywhere I go. The only church I've ever felt at home at was the one I went to when I was a kid. We visit as often as we can. They have a preacher, but in practice, it's really an...

I haven't liked much modern Christian music either, and don't like the churches that only seem to be able to play them. I feel like I'm at a rock concert, they'll turn the lights down and everything, it just feels gross to me. I love old hymns...

This post is another attempt at being a bit more pastoral for the benefit of other pilgrims who are just passing through, to grieve with those who are grieving, and try to bear one another's burdens and so fulfill the Law of Christ. In some of...

Thank you for the thoughtful message! The woman who joined us was the answer to the prayer of my heart. There were multiple witnesses that God had His hand in it all. If wanting this life had been all that was needed for success I would have...

I like your term polybomb. Quite accurate in many circumstances. Also, I encourage people to speak boldly - especially when it's criticism. Far better to have things in the open than to let them fester as an infection in the body of the family.

"Do all things without murmurings and disputings:" - Philippians 2:14 (KJV) Murmuring against providence is admittedly something I have been very guilty of. When I went through a period of extended unemployment, the longest in a decades long...
