Conversations with 3J

I find it interesting when I am presented with ideas that don't align with my belief in the word of God. Recently, I was approached to speak to my deceased mother as a form of therapy. I haven't found any biblical reference that supports that. Is it possible? Can we speak to our deceased loved ones? Let's have a conversation about this.

To be a Christian means you are a disciple, follower, and learner of Jesus Christ. A life that exemplifies the obedience and actions of Christ.

We will discuss what it means to be a Christian and represent Jesus.

Most cultures, social groups, and organizations have certain standards. They operate with a certain etiquette. As I look at the church of today I've seen it water down or deviate from the norm, as a way to appeal and attract those in the world. In doing this what is the ultimate goal? It's one thing to change, hoping to draw others to Jesus Christ. What happens when the church has been compromised?
