Beyond Blue

Awhile back, Beliefnet’s Dena Ross wrote a short piece on how Christian Music superstar Amy Grant deals with holiday depression. Now Dena offers a comprehensive interview with Amy regarding faith, family, and depression. To see the part of her video interview in which she talks about depression, click here.

I was disheartened to read this by one of our Group Beyond Blue members yesterday morning: I’ve been, sporadically, posting at Beyond Blue original, then someone sent me a link for the group. I did a profile and posted and I’ve been posting to that, but I feel as if I’m not wanted and/or needed.…

The author I interview today is famous AND one of us!! She co-authored the bestselling book, “The Faith Club” with Ranya Idliby and Suzanne Oliver. You may have heard of it: Ranya (a Muslim), Suzanne (a Christian), and Priscilla (a Jew) met with each other every week to come to a better understanding of each…

Check out the Exploring Faith Book Club in the Beliefnet Community! They have many interesting discussion threads going on. Here is a description of the group: Have you always had questions about Christianity, Islam, or Judaism that you were too afraid to ask? Now you can get your questions answered, and meet people of a…

I loved this comment by Beyond Blue reader Leslie because she views “holistic health” as a system using any and all tools that can facilitate growth, recovery, and health of the body, mind, and spirit. Compassionate people like Leslie also remind me that I shouldn’t lump all “New-Agers” or even all Scientologists into one category,…

I wanted to publish this comment by Jennifer about my post “My Holistic Approach to Depression” because: 1) She’s right about my holistic approach. If fish-oil capsules is all you need to think more clearly and love more deeply, then by all means, go move to the Arctic and overdose on the Cod liver oil…

I want to thank all my Beyond Blue readers for responding with so much compassion and support to my post “My Holistic Approach to Depression.” As you can see, the reader pushed a pretty sensitive button by claiming that I am a “pharmaceutical-fix-it” kind of girl. My anger wasn’t directed at her. I don’t know…

Dear God, In today’s reading (Isaiah 49: 3, 5), it is written: The Lord said to me: You are my servant, Israel, through whom I show my glory. Now the Lord has spoken who formed me as his servant from the womb, that Jacob may be brought back to him and Israel gathered to him;…

If I weren’t in such a fowl mood, the following quote would inspire me: Our helper is God, and he is such that no one can withstand him. As long as we continue to look to this strong loving helper, we cannot be weakened by the thought of our own frailty. It seems this is…

I never thought I’d go to reader Larry Parker for faith and hope part because he has been such an intellectual skeptic (no insult intended, Larry). But his e-mail (below) about his mother came just as I was having my own crisis of faith after reading my junior-high journal. Thanks, Larry, for the important message…
