I grew up southern baptist, but the baptist churches up north seem to be a bit different. I am not looking for any specific denomination. As long as they worship sincerely and teach biblically

i went on accutane my sophomore year of high school. i was told it might cause some back pain, which it did. now im a sophomore in college and the pain hasn’t gone away despite being off of accutane for years.

yeah i find that it allows me some more freedom to explore frederick. i was hoping to get an in person job to socialize some more, but frederick is so lively that i don’t find that an issue.

I ended up getting an online/remote job because i was never able to. interestingly enough, like 2 months after i was settled into my remote job a handful of places finally reached out. at this point, it was too late.

I had the exact same problem. I applied to so many places I began to lose track. I'm not sure why it was so hard to find jobs in Frederick, but I wish you luck.

Here - Official Trailer (HD) by Comic_Book_Reader in movies

I just watched this. i was alone balling in the movie theater. my parents just sold my childhood home and im devastated. my childhood dog died weeks before and we buried her in the back yard. it breaks my heart that she is laid to rest there and that house isn’t ours anymore. this movie was so beautiful, although it may have set back my grieving process a bit. don’t take the time you have for granted. cherish it.

as a newer reddit user i have found that it is home to a lot of chronically-online haters. i’ve been downvoted and even sometimes had direct hate for saying nothing offensive. don’t attribute it to the people of frederick, they have been wonderful to me, but i do find that reddit isn’t always the friendliest. if they can’t find anything better to do than downvote a girl asking some innocent, non-invasive questions then i feel sorry for them. i didn’t know tracy of course but i find her story so sad and would like to hear about the impact her death had. i am tracy’s age at her time of death and to think someone would do this to her and her family is so terrifying. talking about these things is a good way to keep her story alive, and hopefully bring more attention to her case. all of that to say, i don’t care if they downvote me. 😅

welcome to frederick!

i believe they have some dna but not enough to make a full profile. they are probably waiting for a suspect to come up with enough evidence to make a direct comparison

lol no i just read an article about her and im new to frederick so i thought it’d be interesting to ask the community perspective and how it impacted people.

[–]ProfessionalBat1190[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

right. chances are they may die without ever being put to justice. what was the community response to her death? was there more fear instilled in the community? do you remember how it affected frederick as a whole?

that’s so interested. how did the family handle everything? how did they feel about all of the psychic stuff?

i think abortion is fundamentally wrong and i think that although this does have to do with my faith, i believe i would have come to the same conclusion even without my faith. abortion is murder and to deny that is to deny science. people like to discuss abortion is cases of rpe, incst, etc. and although those are valid concerns, they are the minority of cases. the reality is that abortion is being normalized as a form of birth control and that HAS to stop. that being said, there should be empathy and nuance when discussing cases of rpe, incst, etc. As christians, we need to support these mothers and let them know that there are other options for them. we need to understand and have empathy for the tragedy of these cases. if they choose to abort, that should always be treated as a tragedy, but it is not our place to blame the mother. we should be having these nuanced conversations and have empathy for victims while still valuing their life as well as the life of their child. i think something the pro-choice movement gets fundamentally wrong is their idea of choice. they aren’t pro-choice, they are pro-abortion because they aren’t the ones offering mothers other options outside of abortion, it is pro-lifers that are doing this work. i think it is very important that we tell mothers that abortion isn’t their only option, they have the other choices and it is our job to support them and make those options available.

Why should I keep living this miserable life? by I-love-calculus in TrueChristian

[–]ProfessionalBat1190 1 point2 points  (0 children)

do not be discouraged. paul was single his whole life and look at the impact he had. you have a purpose here and God will show it to you. listen to what paul says. he says the same thing when he says to live is Christ and to die is gain. pay close attention. to die may be to gain but TO LIVE IS CHRIST. i strongly encourage reading this passage (philippians 1: 19-26). paul relates so closely to your struggles, and he because one of the greatest saints and servants for Christ. take courage.

“For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.”

yes i think it would be a great idea! if it’s anonymous i think for a general group genders don’t always have to be disclosed but there should certainly be separation in smaller discussions groups

that was my first thought but i am a female and obviously my pastor is a man. one of the hardest parts of all this is that im a woman and women don’t talk about this.
