Do you think Trump has an heir apparent, or is it one of those things where no one in Washington dares talk about it for fear of reminding Trump of his mortality/term limits? I know the obvious answer is Vance, but Vance does not wield the same kind of fear and influence that Tr…

I think a lot of Christians lose focus and focus on LGBTQ people too much. Instead of simply loving the lord and others, they become hyper fixated on stuff that probably most likely doesn’t really matter. Some just get on here simply to spread homophobia, and it’s allowed becaus…

Hello, I identify as an areligious theist. I have decided a few weeks ago to start reading the Bible (starting at Mark, I am at Genesis now) and I am positively surprised. It really did convince me how wonderful and powerful God really is, and it helped me learn a lot. I am not…

Hello everyone, I'm a 19-year-old girl, turning 20 in September. Anyway, I was born into a relatively conservative Muslim family, but I left Islam about a year ago. Before leaving, I lived in conflict between my love for Allah and my deep faith in Him, and the sayings of Muhamma…

I just wanted to say this because for the past two and a half weeks or so, I have completely fallen in love with the Lord—not romantically, obviously. Just deep, spiritual, profound love. Jesus has been working through me very quickly in a short amount of time and it kind of fee…

I've been pondering this question for about a month now, I need some help with it. Yes, I know the entire context of why Satan killed Job's children, but I need help understanding why God let him do it.

I've struggled with mental illness my entire life. A christian man showed me love and safety before he died of suicide. His last words on his note were "may peace be with you." The pastor at his funeral said, "i dont know why you couldnt find peace in this lifetime." And then th…

Yes, I know that the excitement comes from Jesus returning to earth, but it clearly says that He "will come to earth not with peace, but a sword". Though I'm still reading the New Testament, I've read in Revelations about what the end times will be like. And I'm still nervous th…

I have never posted to reddit before but I felt a calling to now and maybe that fits into everything that has been happening but... I surrendered myself to God for the first time in my life today. To preface, my life has been a roller coaster of abuse, addiction, depression, sel…

I lost my job and the economy where I live is terrible. Can't find work. My relationship ended too. For years I was the one providing for my family. Now that's all gone and I'm the one who needs help. I hate it. I know about Job. People keep telling me to "just have faith like J…

My ex-boyfriend identifies as a Messianic Jew. He believes that Old Testament dietary laws are still binding, so he doesn’t eat pork and believes that eating it is disobeying God. The biggest issue wasn’t that he chose not to eat pork himself. It was that he wanted to teach our…

I cannot properly convey how thoroughly vile my conduct has been in recent days. Sin has been abusing my livelihood and I’ve done nothing but wallow in it. I am grieved; it feels impossible to wrap my mind around my poor decisions. God has supplied me with my immediate needs, He…

I really want to bring attention to our brothers and sisters that don’t have the privilege of living freely right now. Those that are hiding, and those that are being killed (especially in Nigeria). It’s really easy to be consumed with our day to day lives that we forget how ble…

Most of what I remember about my early political education wrt the US and war, was spent attempting to justify most of the shit our military did. Where that wasn't applicable, we were taught to consider the feelings of individuals in the US military in unjust interventions/wars…
