I need advice. I'm a non-denominational, pretty moderate Christian. My parents are loving people, but also very evangelical and Trump-endorsing. It's a struggle dealing with their black / white views.

I’m evangelical, conservative and Trump endorsing too. I have friends who are moderate and liberal. We just avoid hot button topics and agree to disagree if we can’t. Life is too short to stress. Love your parents as they are and live and let live

Being like Jesus means actually doing the work to serve others in a real and meaningful way, it means loving people, it means forgiveness. Jesus also was a social anarchist in His time. Use this time to actually study your Bible. Understand you dont have to deal with your parents on anything other than love. Forgiveness doesnt require you to engage with your parents in ways that may be harmful to you or those you love. You can still honor them by continuing to encourage them to really remember the message of Jesus and that God is first above ALL else and man is not God.

Hi Everyone - I was hoping someone could throw some light on the kind of work trust and safety does.

Or is it more engineering?

Hi Fishes,

I got interviewed at infosys two days back.
When can I expect to hear back from them.
Also all the questions that were asked to me were written coding questions(Write block of code) none were verbal.I could write all answers but none was 100% correct.

At last I asked the interviewer about feedback as in where was I wrong. He said at couple of places and he explained me where was I wrong.

Do you all think I will be rejected?

We’ve been attending a church for about 6 months now and trying to decide if it’s our church home. The only reason I’m hesitant is because people don’t seem to engage with us as much as I expected. For example, I told the pastors wife about a serious diagnosis we recently received and she did pray for us on the spot, but no one has reached out to us at all to check in. Am I expecting too much?
