Hi – I grew up in a very traditional / fundamentalist Christian background and am working through why I believe what I believe. I have recently come across some scholarship that mentions that the Exodus likely didn’t actually happen and that the Joshua conquests were exaggerated. I can’t shake the feeling that maybe these scholars…

I’m not sure why, but I get really shy about showing that I have faith. My family doesnt know that I’m a Christian ( I recently converted) and I am embarassed to tell/show them. For example, when Im reading my Bible, I always make sure that my family cant see that Im reading it. And…

Greetings. I’ll be clear in this post, as I don’t wish to waste anybody’s time.I was raised in a mostly non-religious family; therefore, religion did not play any role in my early life. I only became interested in spirituality during my teenage years through Twelver Shi’a Islam. I decided to take it seriously and remained…

I’ve been in a legal battle the last 5 years that recently reached a verdict and it is not the one that was likely, that I prayed and had faith for or that I was prepared for because I had faith! Now I’m literally crying on the pages of Isaiah and Psalms. I am essentially…

I have no idea which one to choose. I grew up UPCI which was very strict about the outside appearance. I know I don’t want that. I was thinking about Assembly of God but I don’t know if you’re allowed to wear pants if you’re a woman or allowed to cut your hair? I mostly…

Hi everyone! I hope this is the right subreddit to ask this. I (f20) have had a very rocky relationship with both of my parents ever since they got divorced 12 years ago. My mother is an alcoholic with severe mental health issues (diagnosed depression, possibly also borderline personality disorder) and my father does not…

I’m trying to find god and I have no idea where to start. As of recently which this may sound dumb, but I’ve just felt something pulling me towards god. I’m not really religious nor surrounded by people who are but for some reason I can’t stop just getting god out of my head. I…

I am 14, turning 15 very very soon. I keep telling God i won’t like masturbate and lust. I keep telling God i’m sorry. But no matter what i say, i keep coming back to lusting. I don’t know what to do. I tried setting reminders to read the bible and everything and wrote paragraphs…

I asked last night if Jesus would approve of guns, and it blew up before mods took it down for not having enough detail, so here’s me trying again. Jesus said “those who live by the sword will die by the sword.” He told Peter to put his weapon away. The Sermon on the Mount…

The girl from Mexico who I ranted about is aware of my post on here about her and we made up. I let her know she did nothing wrong but we were still both able to apologize and learn. I am deeply sorry for my posts on this community as of late. I’m in the…

Honest question as somebody that has always questioned both sides and everything has turned away many of times has been angry at God and after recent events, I don’t know if something kind of changed or clicked and I’m not only wanna be just a better father better person I wanna get back into the…

I am a broke college student. I drove to my unpaid internship today with my car on empty, no clue if it would be enough to get back home after, and my bank account on zero. Today I received a $20 tip. Tips are not common at all at my job and it may be…

We live in a time where shady people suddenly become “christian”, such as Andrew Tate. We all know Tate is not a proper christian, if at all one. He is what the bible refers to as a ‘false prophet’ So let me ask those of you who identify as christian 2 things: 1: What makes…

I feel lost. It’s been 13 days since I completed my NSS, and I still haven’t found a job. I sent my CV to various recruiters and companies even a month before finishing my service, but I’ve received no feedback. Meanwhile, a friend of mine has gone on four interviews and secured a job from…

I am a Roman Catholic who hasn’t practiced in 22 years. In my family we were never really religious. We are more like cultural Christians, who celebrate ceremonies like baptism, the holy communion, and so on. I have been watching people online, particularly of ex Muslims converting to Christianity, of how they claim to have…

I am terrified I caused harm to a patient and it can be very serious. I am Christian but this makes me want to commit suicide as just punishment. Will I go to hell? I don’t want to die I just can’t live with myself submitted by /u/Electronic-Donut9491 [link] [comments]

Good afternoon Reddit, My life is great and I have a beautiful wife. I just find myself feeling like something is missing. I’ve realized it is my relationship with God. I’ve always had some faith but I’ve never pursued the word of God. I’d like to start and my wife is totally on board which…

Hey everyone, I was out today and a couple of missionaries came up to me. They handed me a copy of The Book of Mormon and talked a little about Jesus. I’ve never really heard about this book before, I mainly know the Bible. Right now, I’ve been focusing on reading and understanding the Bible…

Seeking God’s Approval Over Human Praise Sometimes it’s not words that let you know you’re not wanted or of value to some people! You can feel it! My worth isn’t measured by what people think or see me as but what jesus knows and sees about me. Luke 16:15 “And he said unto them, Ye…

Hi, I used to Christian but stopped believing when I was 15 because I didn’t feel loved once I came out as trans and gay. How can I get back into believing? Please no hate or transphobia submitted by /u/Midnighttease2025 [link] [comments]

We have a soon to be 1 yr old so I’d like responses from parents 5 and younger if possible. I am looking for a safe child content to share with my son about twice a week. We don’t want him to be completely disconnected from the planet or to be raised in a bubble.…

I have seen so many Ameeican Christian turn this racist man into a martyr when he stood against what Jesus stood for- LOVE. Kirk was not killed for being Christian, he was killed for being hateful. Nothing he said is a good representation of Jesus and it’s a shame yall worship him like he was…

I believe we should all be humble, I believe we should all be humble, I believe we should be poor. I believe that your god will help you in trying times. [link] [comments]

I found this awesome girl and she loves me crazy. We share same Christian values and I am constantly teaching her more. We live together, we are feeling well together. I found out about her sexual past (she told me) and it greatly irritated me. She was emotionally blackmailed to have sex or they threatened…
