I'm not here to bash Christians or anyone for that matter. I am a Christian myself and believe in prayer. So I'm not bashing it.

But.... I get annoyed sometimes with the Facebook group I'm in with ladies from church because when people are having issues, all they offer is prayers. Sure, that's great, at least they offer that. But some of the members will post about their family or financial troubles and no one seems to offer actual support of any kind. They just respond with "I'll pray for you." What if they need someone to talk to, to vent with, or need advice or direction on a topic? What if they just need to know there's resources and help in the community? What if they just don't want to feel alone? But all anyone offers is "prayers."

I just wondered if anyone else can relate to that or have any thoughts or feelings on the subject.
