Woke up this morning, hearing my mama cry and pain and in sadness that she’s struggling with everyday life, she suffers from ALS and just got diagnosed six months ago. I need some prayers guys. It’s been rough lately I’m 25 years old and never had to deal with anything like this. submitted by /u/Internal_End_2072…

so if we are made in a image of God, and God is a spirit, wouldn’t that mean that part of the image that we are made in is spirit? please chime in! what a question right!? submitted by /u/info2026 [link] [comments]

I’ll get straight to the point. I do believe God is real, but I don’t believe he is perfect at all. Why does He allow innocent people to get harmed every single minute of the day? Why ‘answer the prayer’ of someone who wants to pass an exam but ignore the prayers of children who…

My boyfriend and I are both Christians. We haven’t had sex but have been kind of struggling to wait. I’m a virgin, and he’s not (but he’s waiting with me). It just feels really difficult for us to wait. My boyfriend has been bringing up marriage so we’ve been talking about it. He’s also mentioned…

It’s Milestone Monday! Romans 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep. Each Monday we welcome hearing about the special milestones you’d like to commemorate this week. We have created this special weekly sub tradition to allow community members to share about milestones in your life. This is the place for sharing…

Hey everyone, apologies as this is a rather intense topic and I’m admittedly shy to post. I’ve been wondering about this, feeling uncertain about what is okay or not? I know it’s a sensitive subject, but it feels like something a lot of us wrestle with quietly. Some days I think it’s a natural part…

I don’t like sitting for an hour in a temple listening to someone reading scripture ceremonially that I have already read.The good part is then the priest explains something from the gospel of the day. Also no one is talking or discussing things, and after the ceremony most of the time people go their own…

I’m 19m and have been dating my gf for over a year now I have committed this sin multiple times. I have recently turned to god learning more and more. I’ve prayed to him asking if he wants me to get rid of my gf because of this sin. I’m just not sure yet. submitted…

“You shall not lay with man, as with woman. That is detestable.” I have heard it was originally something like “Man shall not lay with boy” with was in regards to paedophilia? Anyhow, I need to know if homosexuality is a sin or if it is simply a translation. Is it like the thing with…

When you hear the term New Atheism, you may think of Christopher Hitchens and Richard Dawkins. But you are probably less familiar with Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who stood right by their side in strongly denouncing Christianity. This influential scholar and intellectual was essentially the fifth most prominent new atheist behind Hitchens, Dawkins, Sam Harris and…

I’m a 22 year old man that has essentially never even been around women my age before due to a combination of homeschooling and COVID. With me already missing out on the opportunity to date in my teens, as well missing out on the opportunity to have a normal college experience, and the fact that…

I am a new believer in Christ by the grace of God, and I have been keeping my faith private from my family. Recently, as I grow deeper in my walk with the Lord, they’ve started to notice the changes in me. Most of my close family members are agnostic, and they sometimes question me,…

I’ve been living especially hard for the past 3-4 years with severe clinical unipolar depression and suicidal ideations, though in retrospect there has been red flags for more than a decade, including during my childhood. I’ve also been an atheist all my life, and now a lot more moderate than ever before about the idea…

I think the reason I was so hesitant to join the Lord was because of the community. basically the stereotypical “Christian“ put me off the path for too long. the hateful, bigoted, ”Christian”. But I am learning to see God as His own being and follow His teachings without interference from the people who try…

I’ve been really struggling lately with this thought. My parents have a farm so Ive sadly seen the lives of so many animals end. I think about how short the lives of are some animals and how some of them never feel love. This thought even keeps me up at night crying. I pray every…

Im thinking of starting a 3 day fast this week to hopefully help me overcome my addiction to pornography and grow my relationship with God, this would be the first time I’ve ever fasted spiritually, I know for some health/medical fasts some caffiene sources like black coffee or tea without sugar or milk is acceptable,…

The death of James Dobson has led me to consider the dark influence he has had, not only on society, but on me, when I was a teen. It’s hard not to see how he helped inspire the Christian nationalist movements which were to come: https://www.patheos.com/blogs/henrykarlson/2025/08/the-dark-legacy-of-james-dobson-a-reflection-on-influence/ submitted by /u/SergiusBulgakov [link] [comments]

Jesus is my God, my King and the one I will serve forever. He saved me from being so so deep in my sins and I’m doing better than I ever thought I ever possibly could. I was born Hindu, yet He called me as his own and saved me. As my relationship with Him…
