My hope is that, like my blog, it will become a supportive network for those suffering from depression or any other mental illness.

Status: MemberDescription: One thing I've learned in our Spiritual Walking Group is that finding a network of people that support your efforts is a major factor in achieving your goals. With this idea in mind, Beliefnet and I are pleased to announce "America Walks with Kathy Smith," a 10-month journey that we hope will allow us to support each other in our quests to accomplish our individual aspirations, but also to work toward a common goal as a group: to be healthier in our bodies, minds, spirits, homes, schools, and planet. Every month, from now through October 4th, 2008 (the official date of the walk), I'll help us focus on different aspects of walking, personal growth, and spiritual connection. Within each month's theme, we'll also have some fun with a monthly contest and prize. As we proceed, we'll build a community of walkers, touching lives across the country with our anecdotes, our struggles, and our ever-growing support system. As we take this journey together, I encourage you to reach out to friends and family and invite them to participate. And as our group culminates with the Walk Across America on October 4th, we'll hand off a "virtual baton" from one walker to the next - symbolizing our personal goals (weight loss, lowering blood pressure, increasing energy), and at the same time, uniting in our mission to create a healthier America and a healthier world.

Name:Status: MemberDescription: These are troubled times. We all have problems and challenges. Many of us are beset with worries, fear and grief. But we also have the innate ability to not just cope with our problems, but to be proactive in our own healing, problem solving and personal growth. Join me, Rev. Vic Fuhrman, on a journey of self-healing and recovery from life's difficult moments. It is time to heal ourselves and take responsibility for enhancing our lives. Heal Thy Self is place for sharing our stories and supporting each other. I noticed that when I ran Heal Thy Self together, it spelled out "Healthy Self". This is our aspiration...to achieve the healthy self. Everyone welcome. Please note: It is my belief that all forms of spiritual healing are meant as compliments to and not substitues for traditional western medicine. Anyone seeking spiritual healing should also continue to be seen and treated by his or her physician.

Name:Category: Science & ReligionStatus: MemberDescription: What do you look for in a Bible translation? Basically, there are two types: a literal (word for word) rendition and a dynamic equivalent (paraphrase or idiomatic). The first clings as closely as possible to the original language, that is, as much as idioms and word choice will allow. In contrast, the paraphrase is a “free” translation in which the translator seeks to express the original writer’s thoughts as he may interpret them rather than the exact words used in the text. ……………………………………………………………………………………………… This group’s primary concern is using good translations as well as using a variety of English translations. However, our discussions can cover any area that is Bible related and, or related to Bible study and research. Our two group texts are Proverbs 2:1-6 and John 17:3. Here are some of the areas of interest for this group. ………………………………………………………………………………………………. • Hermeneutics • History of Judaism • Textual Criticism • Bible Translation • Biblical Greek • Biblical Hebrew • Semantics • Exegesis • Doctrines • Archaeology • Bible Chronology • Theology • Inductive Bible Study • History of Christianity • History of Religion • How the Bible Came Down To Us • Customs and Culture • Study of Bible (Chapter by Chapter) ……………………………………………………………………………………………… This list is not exhaustive, but it should give you some ideas. If anyone disagrees with another, simply quote the person and give your logical reason as to why. Then site a web address or a source, which may be a very good one, also, it may be very informative, but it is up to you to read it and find out how the previous poster is not quite right and explain it to the rest of us. At the end of your explanation you may site that website as your source. …………………………………………………………………………………………….. There are enough hate boards out there tearing the throats of others out in the name of God ironically. That is not the case here. We are going to be Christlike and respect each other. We will pick the kindest of words when we disagree. Like: “I can appreciate where you are coming from, but I feel this…….. is the real reason for this….., do you see what I mean? The other may come back: “Yes, I see how you are getting where you are, but I must respectfully disagree because…. ……………………………………………………………………………………………… Our goal is to do good research, keep digging and show loving kindness to others in the process. ………………………………………………………………………………………………. Your friend, Apologist
