"Hard Freeze"

Paula1966 @Paula1966 (1102) • United States 23 Nov 08

Do you ever wonder about how certain phrases developed almost to the point of needing to research it so you can think about other things? My little bit of pondering last night was driven by the fact that it got down to 21...

cathyisgodschild I must admit that you have me stumped on why the conundrum? Here is my current fixation phrase: radical grace". I want to understand it and have started a discussion on that phrase. Maybe hard freeze means that it will take a while to thaw... Good question....

Just can't put it down

makingpots @makingpots (11915) • United States 23 Nov 08

What was the last book you read that you just couldn't put down? That you either read in one sitting or put it down because you had to but then finished it as soon as you could the next time you grabbed it? I'm asking because I...

cathyisgodschild Please do not laugh at me. My question is: does the Bible count as a Book on your list? You see once I got past Deuteronomy and started on Judges I could simply not put it down until I got to Job. It was fascinating and rolled along like any of the books you...

cathyisgodschild Such a hard choice. I love Koontz Watcher. King's "the Stand would have to be my all time favorite book other than God's Word simply because it is such an interesting revelation of "end times and Apocalypse. Of course the Left Behind series does do a much...

What makes you like Poe?

kbjunior15 @kbjunior15 (1309) • United States 22 Jul 08

I am a teacher and I have found that with Poe students either love him or hate him. There is no in between. I love Poe. His style of writing is captivating and has me in it's grasp the entire time I am reading. I love to teach...

Our Christian Life Is It Right With God

kerriannc @kerriannc (4279) • Jamaica 17 Nov 08

There are alot of us who proclaim that we are Christians. I am not judging no one but to be a true Christian we have to have Christ Living in us. Galatians 2:20, Romans 8:10-11, Colossians 1:27 and Ephesians 3:17. The...

cathyisgodschild That was beautiful. My friend and I talk all the time about how we as Christians tend to lean to our own understanding of how God wants us to be. Proverbs 3:4-6 says: "And so find favor and high esteem in the sight of God and man. trust in the Lord with all...

KURIAN @elshaddai123 (3981) • Kottayam, India 16 Nov 08

Who taught you how to cook?

Rocketj1 @rocketj1 (6955) • United States 10 Nov 08

My mom is a decent cook. She doesn't really enjoy it though. She also has a terrible habit of being overly modest about things. Example:.........."I made this salad but I'm not really sure that it turned out right, so don't worry...

cathyisgodschild I used to watch my great grandmother fry chicken and make gravy. My mom was not a very good cook and so my step-dad did most of the cooking fortunately. I somehow appear to be a fantastic cook or at least that is what everyone has said. I know it can't be too...

What position do you sleep in? Left side, right side, front or your back?

SketcherD @SketcherD (1114) • Canada 12 Nov 08

cathyisgodschild I always go to sleep on my side but usually wake up on my back. That always hurts my back so I do not know why my body is so stupid as to do this but it does. I was trained from a very young age to sleep on my right side because I can remember my mom yelling...

Have you ever read the Bible seriously?

Masmasika @Masmasika (1921) • Philippines 12 Nov 08

I haven't read the Bible seriously in my life. I only read the Bible when my students have assignments about religion. Although I am a Catholic and I go to church and pray the rosary, I still don't read the Bible to really...

cathyisgodschild I have been reading the Bible very seriously since 2005. If not for God I would be dead right now. I have no doubt. Either the drugs or Katrina one would have got me. Instead God got me and I love Him for it so I read to know Him better. I was reading Jeremiah...

cathyisgodschild How can you give a thoughtful answer without truly reading. Myself I do not think that it would be possible to participate in a discussion without knowing fully what they were talking about. It is the same when you are sitting in the same room as people. If...
