The church I attend is more like a family in that we make it a point to be involved in each others lives.  We "deal with" the good, bad, and ugly (so to speak).  My wife and a good friend started a clothing ministry which provides clothing to the needy.  We are also working with recent African refugees that escaped the killings in their country and are now lost in this one.\n\nI personally am always looking for ways to help others.\n\nBy the way, this church "family" has a lot of us who are going on a motorcycle ride after church today as it is "Biker Weekend" here.\n\nCome visit if you're ever in town.

Not at all. I used to feel wierd about it, but then I met one of my pastors who is a woman. She's also a close personal friend of mine and she inspires me alot. As it is I do teach, but I would love to one day preach God's word. It would be awesome!

LOL! I feel bad for laughing...I believe in God, heaven, the Bible, etc,i would call myself more spiritual than religious-Sometimes i think people maybe go a little too far trying to push their beliefs onto someone else...but i think for the most part, it's people who want to tell other people about God..I'm all for anyone who's intentions are to spread the word, tell how they found peace and happiness, or to educate- It's the condemning and persecuting done by the "believer" that disgusts & disappoints me, looking down on other people is not what it's all about..It's supposed to be "about" the exact opposite, anyhoo, i'll quit rambling now..Point is, apparently someone has taught them how to use a computer- maybe God himself did, haha

In my experience, I never wanted to be in a 'click', but I was zealous and helped all I could, and when you show this type of willingness, you will be asked to do whatever is needed. I loved the whole congregation, as Jesus loved all.

When I began going to church, I was the most quiet and shy person you could dream of.  I imagine I had a lot in common with the teens in your church.  One thing that helped me open up was all of the activities we got together for outside of church: bowling, hanging out as a group w/our youth ministers at someone's house. . . .   Doing this put me in a more comfortable setting and helped me to relax more.  Another thing was picking a discussion topic that you feel certian AT LEAST 80% of teens have had experiences with.  One topic I have been involved in discussing is online communities(such as MySpace) and how they affect your spirituality and thinking.  Be sure to make it clear that you are interested in everyone's ideas.  This will make them proud of what they believe, and they will be more willing to share ideas.  When I say show interest in their ideas, I don't mean "oh, that's a good idea".  My youth ministers always seemed oddly excited over anyone's ideas and made sure that comment led to the next part of the discussion so we didn't feel like our voice didn't matter.  We could see how our opinion affected the conversation.

I've answered several religious questions tonight.  I am guilty of your charge on some of those answers.  In one answer I got completely off topic.  I beg your pardon if mine was one you are referring to.

I wouldn't hold your breath, even though the church is supposed to give back to the community. I find it odd that the church teaches us not to seek the things of the world, and then pass the plate to collect the money of the world.

Technically, we are asking the saints to intercede with God on our behalf, not praying to them. You are correct, though, most people don't get it and that is a problem. Most people go to church out of habit and just do things without thinking about them--not a good practice at all! There is a fine line between worshiping Saints and asking for intercession!

I've been told I was upset.  For me it's not being upset, it's having questions.  Since Christians are the majority here it makes no sense for one to ask many questions about other religions as they would just get scrolled over.  Even questions about Christianity that require actual knowledge or thought get scrolled over, so most questions end up being either funny or blatant attacks.  It seems that is the only way to get heard.

I don't understand why people answer Question on subjects that don't interest them and bash the person for asking.I'm not a fan of the religious Q's. So I just don't answer them.Please don't let these small minded people change your thinking. Where would we be if Jesus gave up because of persecution.

Oh My!! You confess to the whole church???  Do the people judge you for what sins you have made?? How could I look at the members in the church eye to eye, who have commited serious sins?  I don't think it is meant for us to judge.  How can we not when we hear about members airing their dirty laundry?  I think your sin should be left to God to handle.

I guess it is quite fine. I mean if someone asked my religion I would not be offended. However, it is important not to insult people because of their religion or not having a religion.

Yea I went to church today. We learned how Jesus impacted our lives and what he think of us?  Those that don't attend church miss a good change to fellowship with believers and to come to know Christ more. I find those that don't know anything about the Lord avoid going to church. Only Satan makes you avoid church.

I would confess, that I haven't been to church for a lonnnnnnnnng time. \n\nI am not Catholic either, I am Anglican, and glad we don't have confession.  LOL.

I hope you are not apologizing for being a Christian.  That is what your "question" sounds like.  No need for that.  If, on the other hand, you are saying that you are apologizing in Christian manner, I accept.  God Bless.  It does take great restraint to keep from answering in kind with some of the yahoos who get on this page.
