Hi there! I'm Spelk (aka Emma). I'm from England, and I've been a Christian for about ten years, but with a lot of backsliding in that period! I love reading the Bible and reading about different Christian issues, and I'm *definitely* on the liberal side of things, just to warn you. I'm particularly interested in mental health and Christianity as I have a mental health problem myself (bipolar) which I struggle with daily. Still God sends everything for a reason and I'm hoping that when I finish writing my website about those sort of issues, that other Christians will be blessed by my experience.
Anyway that was a bit deep! Hope to see you all in the forum!

I deal with anxiety and depression and I have always found it interesting how Christians use their faith to deal with these health issues. I have to be honest and say that when I've been very close to God (regardless if life is good or bad) I don't have as many health issues as when I'm further away from Him. Of course, I don't have any hard evidence to back that up (and I'm definitely a science person--- I teach that subject actually), but it is truly amazing what He can do.
