My experience, inside and outside of church has been the exact opposite. I would have estimated that at least 70-80% of broken marriages are left by the male - we must move in different circles :)

James, my... [continued]

I wouldn't, and because I wouldn't, I wouldn't expect anyone else to do it for me either; hence I would only date someone local. (well, I would relocate over the other side of Adelaide - lol!)

I have children who... [continued]

Kerrie, I know how you feel. My ex-husband, who used to be a credentialed pastor, has recently listed himself on Facebook as an agnostic. I feel so sad for him. At this stage, I think he is happy for the kids to be... [continued]

I think a lot of the time it would depend on someone's status on here as a fully paid member or not.

I am currently not a paid up member, so if you sent me a message, I would not be able to read it. If you waved... [continued]

I'm happy to pash before marriage - lol! Can't believe I just said that out loud! But I wouldn't pash someone if we were just getting to know each other in the dating scene - more a committed boyfriend/girlfriend... [continued]

For all the reasons that Giselle posted above, I probably wouldn't go as far as a pre-nup, but... [continued]

What a beautiful post :) Well said.

Does anybody know of anything similar in Adelaide?

My kids are very young (7 and 4) , but often ask me if I have a boyfriend. My standard response is "I already have one - you! I don't need anyone else" Although the other day, my daughter (4) asked me if her dad... [continued]

Heather, like Cheryl, I like what you had to say.

An interesting read is the chapter on homosexuality that Tony Campolo has in his book called "Adventures in Missing the Point". He looks at all the references in... [continued]

I am not a fan of date based prophecy either. It's only 2011 in countries that follow the Gregorian calendar. It's not 2011 in Ethiopia! The date from where we start our calendar is somewhat random and arbitrary,... [continued]

Praise God! I am watching Sunrise now and they are talking about how they are stunned about how little damage there is, given the ferocity of the cyclone. Anna Bligh - "Very, very encouraging news this morning"

Georgina, sorry that you had to go through such a horrible experience.

Chris, how old are your kids? We had a basic way of explaining it all that I come up with and developed with the psychologist that I started... [continued]

Chris, I have been praying that, too. I believe in miracles, although it is a test of my faith to pray for one, to be honest.

Pauline, I am praying for safety and peace for you, your family and friends.
