Question and Answers

Why is it so hard to get accepted into a group of my own peers even at church activities? At every activity I have attended for youth for the past year I have felt like an outsider.

My friend and I recently got in a fight. I know that God wants us to forgive each other, but sometimes it's really hard. How can we forgive another person when we are having trouble doing so?

I have a friend who has started wearing all black clothes. People are making fun of her, and she supposedly told someone she is gothic. She has been a good friend, so what should I do or say to help her?

Is it OK to have boyfriends out of the Church? Should you try to tell them about "the way" or leave them alone?

How would I go about explaining to her our way of life, and why we believe it? Also, is there any way I can encourage her to get more interested in this way of life? I am praying about this but would like your advice as well.

I have a relationship with a guy that I love very much. As a Christian, is it OK to kiss your boyfriend?
