How'd you find us?

[Don]

Here's a fun poll to find out what path all of our fine friends out there took to get to our doorstep. Pick the one that best applies.

[ATMYTV]

Mine is one of the "Other" votes. Our source was the writeup in the "Washington Post" of John Edward which included great comments from Pam. Yeah, Pam!

[PsyQuestor]

I found the other forum after wading through hundreds of poorly written gibberish at another site. This post was special. The poster seemed to have intelligence, taste and tact. She said in four lines what it took me forever to try to get across. I knew this was someone I could get along with. :)

The post was made by none other than my dear websister Pam :)

Home sweet Home,
Tammy

[JBannister]

The first time I ever touched a computer (this past March), the
guy I bought it from was going to give me a lesson. He asked
what I wanted to search. Without hesitation I said John Edward.
I was immediately drawn to Pams site. And she hasn't been able to get me to leave yet.

[VTFlowerGirl]

I landed here via internet search. I actually landed in skeptic forums somewhere first, quickly retreated, and finally landed here. And Pam hasn't been able to get rid of me yet either! In fact now I'm kind of addicted to "feeling the love" the surrounds this site.

There's a community in town here called the "Twelve Tribes", they have a shoe shop and a couple other businesses. In a nutshell they lead a simple life, no TV, no media, etc.... I have good friends within that community and we speak often of the world around them, and I'm very vocal in speaking up against those who find fault with their way of life, and they've had their share of controversy surrounding them. The weird thing is that whenever I step foot on any of their properties and enter their homes - a peacefullness and calm comes over me. There's singing, laughter, prayers and hugs and they consider themselves one big family and by extension now I'm part of their family too they say.

It's the same thing here just in cyberspace. So wonderful to have a safe haven to dock the boat after travelling rough seas.

[mesch]

I found the site by needing more JE. so I did a search to see what info I could find.. and this site was the top of the list. I clicked and stayed... never did look at any of the other sites listed :user: :daisy:

[Pam]

Oh but you should. Specially if you ever get tired of us. (won't everyone get tired of us at some point, *sniffle*?) Then you'll REALLY appreciate us! ;)

[AnnT.]

I voted last week, but never posted. (I'm shy :D )
But I found you through a search engine (Dogpile - yeah I know; unfortunate name but good returns) And I've been here ever since! (ok - a whole week now - but time is relative). Since landing here I have found other sites (following all the links to articles and critiques and transcripts in a manic frenzy for MORE! MORE!) but this is HOME!!
So this and JE's site are the only two I visit and BOY oh BOY do I look forward to a seminar in my half of the country (or anywhere - I'm flexable) where I can meet up with some of you in line!! I have just loved the posts here about the others. I know my time will come but it sure is taking a while. (ok - I've only known they've existed for 3 weeks but it is still taking a while ...)
So, greetings to all :) and today is a BIG day - my JE books are due to arrive this afternoon (UPS rescheduled from yesterday). I really do feel that my patience is being tested ...

*A*

[mesch]

Hey pam,,
you trying to get rid of me??? LOL!! At this point I haven't the need (nor the time) to get involved with another site... Who knows,,, someday maybe

[Kena]

I know this sounds strange, but.... I can't even remember how I found this site. I think it found me. :)

Ya know, they say the mind is the first to go?.....

Kena :)

[Yardbird]

You're not too far off, Kena. Sometimes I think this site found me too! :p I'm glad it did- the only other board I attempted to be civil with told me skeptics weren't allowed. Fortunately someone there decided to help my nagging beliefs out, made a new board for me to visit, and now I grow a little more each time I read from all of you. Hooray for our lil piece of tact and intellect on the Net..... Yardbird (Laura J.)

[black sparrow]

I'm so glad I found you guys. On one of our cable stations here in Australia I just happened to come across JE's show one day and once I got used to how fast he can talk I was hooked. I have only been 'on the net' for a couple of months and was looking at the stations website and they had a discussion page going on the subject of 'I wonder if John Edwards will ever come to Australia'. It sounds like he is getting quite a fan base over here. Anyway someone mentioned this site and I could wait to check it out! Thank you for your warm welcome!! I look forward to many hours of sharing and joy!! Love to all..

[Betty]

:jumper:
Hi Everyone,
I found you through Delphi. There is another forum on Delphi which I check out. It's one set up by people who used to live in the same town I grew up in.
Anyway, I simply typed in John Edward in their search box and there you were. Thank goodness. As I said before, I may not post often, but I do enjoy and get a lot of comfort just by reading others posts.
Thanks for being here.
Betty


:D

[MistyRose49]

....to this site ....... from the one on Delphi....and it's good to be home :)

[shelleyrae]

I actually did an internet search but found nothing beyond the official site and a site at scifi so I started reading the links to articles and came across this web addy in a Washington Post article
I am in Sydney Australia and John Edwards is a recent addition to our pay Tv service..I don't miss it if I can help it!

[748s]

hi,
I was channel surfing and came across crossing over. Watch it all the time now. Saw john's web address in his book. Had a look at his web pages, followed links and found this one. I recently tried to follow links back here, I didn't bookmark it!
Strangely, there was no links back to here, the way i came had vanished. Did a search and finally got back. I had a look at other forums but just had to come back to this one. :cool:

[shining_woman]

I don't recall how I found this site...rather I believe it found me.

While generally a lurker, the common bonds of community amongst the members is what keeps me coming back.

I believe because I have experienced and in that I find hope.

Blessings,
SW

[riley90]

Hey Don.
Is there anyway that when people register, we could have a question like how did you find us?
I handed out 12 website cards to a variety of people at the New Haven seminar. I would love to know if I helped them get here.
I know three other people I invited, registered since New Haven, but they were friends and family that I have been trying to get here forever . It wasn't until I told them about New Haven and the picture of me on the Net :lwink: that they finally showed up.
Love you all and boy do we make a great family.

[Pebbs]

I found this site via delpi....stumbled across the sunday night chat, and was directed to this site. Do you have more than one night of chat?

[PsyQuestor]

The group has one hosted chat on Sunday at 9 PM EST.

Members may chat whenever they wish. We encourage you to make use of one of the unlisted rooms however, for your privacy. There are some people who do come in and harass our members ( we call em trolls ) and being in an unlisted room would be best.

If you do get a troll, please write down their nickname and report it to a moderator.

Tammy

[pinkroses]

I found this site through google search for JE,I spotted the link to make you own CAV Tshirts and I got here shortly after:cuser:

[WPBEAR14]

After an internet search for John Edward I ended up at the Delphi site. I know I was a lurker at first. I recall some postings with weird graphics: dancing ladies for Jesus or something like that. That worried me a little, but after reading all the wonderful posts, I felt so at home. People here finally thought like I did, I was no longer alone in my beliefs.
I know there are many other sites pertaining to ADC and metaphysics, but this site is "the place to be" for me when I get a chance to get online.
Thanks to Pam and all the wonderful moderators who keep this site positive and friendly.



HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Love, light. and peace,
POOH

[billiejune]

I found you through looking John Edwards Crossing Over on the internet. I am so glad that I found this. :)
So far every one I have read about or answered my thread back has been wonderful. I am going try to do the chat room on Sunday but cant promise anything. :D

[pudgybuster]

I found you long ago before the changed format, however for some reason I could never get logged on. It was a much more controversial site -- there were some very angry and cynical folks out there at the time.

But I am so totally hooked on JE that I keep coming back to this site to see what's new. Thank you, Pam, for making this such a warm and welcoming place. Somehow, even though it sounds trite, one can tell friendly souls from angry ones, and this site is just "Home"! I also have more spare time in the summer, as I am a teacher, and most of my time during the school year is spent tending to my darlings. But now that I know you are here, I plan on settiing aside time as often as I possibly can to find love and acceptance. Thank you.

Pudgybuster
:angel:

[SVMAXX]

I found this site through a search after watching the show for a couple weeks, and developing a desperate need to find all the information I could about JE and the whole concept. However, it took me a while to get the nerve to join in. I am just so illiterate when it comes to the Internet. :square: I am fumbling my way around the site. Hope I don't make too many blunders. I don't have the Internet at home, so I have to tap in through the machine at the office(after hours and with my boss' permission of course). It really limits my ability to spend as much time as I would like. I am so pleased with the feeling I have encountered here. :love: Even though a lot of the time I am lurking in the background.
Terry :lurker:

[Fairiedust]

Hi everyone,

I think Don and I watched Crossing Over and then started searching around the internet. Found Je's site, and I think from there we ended up on Delphi for awhile. Then we made the move to the mansion. I guess my name fits. I flit from place to place. This is "Home" now. Getting to old to flit.

Every once in awhile I go out and explore, and wish I hadn't. Lot o' nasty business out there.

Bottom line, Pam. You are absolutely stuck with us!!! Are you still smiling Pam???

[pudgybuster]

I know I'm going to sound incredibly stupid, but what is "delphi"? I use the internet for teaching tools, e-mail, etc., but this whole discussion thing is really new to me. So there are other places? I hear lots of laughter out there wondering if I'm for real, but I'm dazed and confused (and also, ironically, a blond!).

Pudgy
:confused:

[Pebbs]

I got the link though delphi as well......go to

http://www.delphiforums.com/

The chats are there on sunday nights.

[Pam]

If you're talking about out chats, they chats used to be at Delphi, but now we have our own chat server. The link is at the bottom of every page here :)

[Pebbs]

Thanks Pam....I didn't realize it had changed. Guess that shows you the last time I chatted....<G>

[Don]

What you often hear us refer to as "Delphi" was once a sort of universal forum site. You name the topic (and I ain't kidding) they had a forum for ya. It's where this forum started. I'll be nice and just say that for various reasons Delphi eventually faultered, tried to regroup under a different name and are now daisey dirt.

[Desiderata]

Dunno about that Kena.... I only just joined yesterday and I can't remember how I got here .. I remember something intrigued me.. so I followed that then went on to something else (as you do) and ended up here. To be honest... it doesnt much matter how.... I'm just soooo glad I did!!!

rosie:jumper: <<< ooooooooooooh I love frogs

[Desiderata]

Whoooops!!! Just to prove what a newbie I am .. I have just replied to Kena who posted on the first page of this thread.. not realising that there were many posts after it...lol ah well... its the learning curve!!!!!!

rosie:jumper: (sorry I've adopted the frog)

[solana]

I found this wonderful site while searching for anything related to John Edward. I have been taping his show for a long time.. at 5 pm, then I watch again at 11 pm. I have read Crossing Over and One Last Time and also Schwartz' Afterlife Experiments.. as well as a lot of other books.

As I was looking for MORE I came across this site.

The fact is, that I have been spending less time at a site I moderate in order to be here and read, read and read some more.:rainbow: :rainbow2:

[stephaniemcglew]

I found this site only.last week after visiting JE official site and they suggested that i might find what i was looking for here

it is great to be here and to feel so welcome

thanks
Stephanie:lwink:

[Pam]

I added "Heard about it on Crossing Over' to this classic poll :)

Weigh in please! :)

[oaksfan13]

:jumper:

I was watching Crossing Over today and they talked about this site and I immediately wrote the address down. I was wanting to find a site to talk with people about this subject.

[stephaniemcglew]

i found the lovely site after i recently read the book by je called crossing over, the new edition, on the back cover there is an address to je official site and they suggested that i might like to try here. here i am.
we have only had 4 episodes of je on normal tv, ie for thelast three weeks on a saturday night. the first into, if you like was on the preceding tuesday evening. we stay in for saturday evenings now.
my youngster of 14 watched it the other night. hasn't said anything as yet, but school resumed yesterday. in time.
je is coming to aussie land in jan'03, but the wrong side of it:lwink:
the opportunity will arise when it is meant to
cheers

[Traci]

I found this site from your lovely spot on Crossing Over that I viewed yesterday, and I'm glad I did.

Thank you.

[lovNdale]

I found this site after seeing the well known "Pam" the other day!! So glad I was watching......I try hard not to miss his show.

[sweets]

I found the site while watching JE talking about Pam and the website. I bolted for a piece of paper and pen to write it down.
Took me a couple of days to get here, as my computer isn't always up to snuff, but here I am and SO happy to be here. great bunch of folks, and ever so helpful! Think I will definitely be here awhile!!........:wave:

[soulseeker47]

Got here because of the segment that our beloved PAM appeared on. I, like Sweets, also bolted for something to write on after seeing it--- just could not believe the urgency I felt to see this site. Very glad to be here. Thanks for the poll it is interesting. And thanks to all the senior members for their imput and suggestions.

Love and Blessings to all :love:

[Patrick]

I'm one of the people who heard about it on CO,the funny thing is,the day the segment aired i had lotsa stuff going on and wasnt planning on watching the show that day,but....whatdayaknow...i ended up in front of the tube anyway and lo and behold,there it was!!! i will always believe i was led to watch that particular show that day by my guide,who i affectionately call Gus,and will be forever grateful that i did and forever thankful for this site and all the wonderful folks around here.....thanx again,Pam,its a beautiful thing!!!!! Blessings on all...Patrick:D :P

[Amica]

I found this site because it was alluded to many times on the Spirit Discovery message board (which I just joined yesterday). I have to admit that since these sites "look" so similar (along with the johnedwardfriends.com site, I'm getting really confused as to where I am, LOL. Are all these sites connected? I was trying to find the JE Chat, which I believe is on the DelphiForums (did I get that right at least?)

Cheers to all!

[Don]

[Nchanted1]

HI:wave:
Well I am brand-new and found this site thanks to JE's Customer Service Representative. I asked if there was anything that "THEY" could suggest in the way of a community-based web site..

AND HERE I AM..............

[Don]

Wow! Can't get a much better recommendation than that!

[Dexter_Spike]

Someone posted a song somewhere, I can't remember where...

You can actually hear Josh singing...
Stop and listen for a while...

http://www.johnedwardtalk.org/media/towhereyouare.mp3

Artist: Josh Groban
Album: Josh Groban
Song: To Where You Are

Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear

Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration

Can it be(?)
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are mine
Forever love
Watching me from up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave

Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for a while
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are




Now I have the habit of taking apart the links to places, so as to see the original site... the index page... this is what brought me here. I have been reading ever since, and this is my first post... I have had many experiences in my life and I am looking forward to sharing soon...

:cuser:
I found this site after getting the reading in the gallery. I put in John Edward and clicked on Friends. The word friend was the reason I clicked on it. I felt that it would be positive rather than negative. Which by the way under this site was another that was just horrible. I am so glad that I have a place whenever I need anything, anything. Thank you all for being so caring.

BTW - is this how you are collecting votes, I didn't see a radio button list or anything. Or am I missing something?? (I didn't read 2 pages of this thread so sorry of you already answered this one!)

Darn good question. Will have to have a look-see at why the vote option is missing.

[Don]

Mystery solved. Once you vote, the option to vote is removed. This is a little different from previous versions of the forum software.

[starlasue]

ha ha ha - I must have had a middle-aged moment!

I didn't remember hitting that poll! But then I have been reading an awful lot over the past week or so! I swear if my brain wouldn't be attached, my Spirit Guide would have to keep bouncing it back to me! :lwink:

Ok, I've been poking around this site all morning and I have to say it's awesome. I'm a teacher on summer break (real break for the first time in years, no tutoring, no classes and actual BREAK!) and I had to look up my interests. I searched John Edward fan sites and this popped up, I know this is my first day but I do believe I'm here to stay! :jumper:

heard about it on CO (2nd highest percentage in the poll) quite some time ago but i'm a great procras108r.

Many people go back and look at the thread when they have already voted. They see there is a new post and want to read it. That increases the number of views, without increasing the number of votes. :)

My path to JEFriends...

A little over a week ago, in the midst of my Mom's four-week-plus bout of poor health, I needed some "distraction with purpose".

A long-time believer in the other side and viewer of Crossing Over, I googled John Edward and surfed into this site. From the opening page onward, I felt peaceful and "at home".

The comaraderie and compassion here found are... :handofgod

To all those responsible for this site, I thank you.

Tinkster :-)

[Don]

It's all the great ingredients that make for a wonderful soup. Thanks for joining us.

[canadianmom]

nice analogy Don! :)

Peace!

[juie]

I voted in the "other" catergory today. I was attending my first JE seminar and out of the crowd of people a lady came up to me before the show started, and asked if I was with the "Friends of JE" group. I said no, but what is that?? She gave me only a brief explanation, but it was enough to have me check you guys out!
I have loved chatting with you all ever since!! I'm not much of a "computer person", but I really feel at home here and have learned sooo much!
Thanks to you all!!!! lol!!

[Lacey]

Is this site mentioned on John Edward's official site? I can't remember if I saw it there. But I did a search and found it along with many skeptic sites, boy are they vicious!:(

[Jude]

No, I don't believe there is anything about this website at JE's official website, as we are not affiliated with John Edward in any way.

You may have done an internet search, or perhaps found us through

http://www.johnedwardfriends.org/home.shtml of which this discussion group is a part.

However you found us, we're glad you're here!! :wave:

[smbunltd]

I found this site after a generic search on the internet. Of course, I found all the debunking sites first. I tried to keep an open mind and see what they had to say. I was surprised at how easily their own reasons behind their own debunking could be - debunked, but I digress. I found a couple other "fan" sites, but when I hit here - I knew I had found a place for me and my beliefs to fit in. Thanks to the founder(s) and thanks to the members who make this a great place to visit with like minds.

[Corine]

Every year we spend our vacation in Florida and for about 3 years ago,I saw JE for the first time on t.v. I`ve never seen this before and when we were back in Holland,I surfed on the internet and found his site.I`ve ordered his books and each year I wath every crossing over for 3 weeks.I really want to attend his workshop in november but all tickets were sold out.John`s office recommended this site to help me find a ticket.......so that`s how I found this site

How I found your wonderful site!

Warm Greetings to all! This is my first post as I have been waiting for the "right" time to involve myself. This site is addicting...but I have limited computer time available to play.

My story:

My son was flipping the channels, and saw a pay-per-view opportunity on Direct tv for John Edward Live!! Dec 7,2003. All subscribers to the live call in opportunity would get a free signed copy of "Afterlife", John's lastest book. Of course I called!!! It was $24.95 to watch, and I wanted to hold a signed book!! On Dec. 8th (monday, I called and asked questions about When it was, and nobody knew anything about it...couldn't help me at all except to put the show thru. It came on, but turned out to be a recording of the Live call in show done the day before. It was fantastic!! I watched it over and over for 24 hours straight!! The fact that I was watching a re-run of the day before show upset me as I had no chance to call in, but $24.95 for a signed book was worth it!! Only....I called back explaining they were selling a "live" show after the fact, and people might not be as nice as me about it....I'd pay the $24.95 AS LONG AS I GET MY SIGNED BOOK!! Guess what! They have no record of me ever calling to get the show, no $24.95 charge on my account, and that they had no clue about any "free signed book" that was offered. Bummer!!! At the end of the show, John introduced Suzane Northrop briefly, and her words re "Everything Happens For a Reason" and that life isn't about the money gripped me. So, a month later, I reconnected to the internet and went to her website Theseance.com. The forum was talking about John Edward's show being cancelled, and they offered up your website to sign the petition-which I did immediately! And here I am, constantly checking the petition growth and reading all the wonderful comments!!

I did go to the library in my small town and walked right to the book "Afterlife", put my hand on it, and Church Bells rang!! I swear!!! I drove home, feeling blessed and joyous and relieved of how the book did come to me! Then 5 minutes later, the mailman delivers my last late birthday box...which included a gift from my Sister-in-law...it was Suzane's book-Everything Happens for a reason.

[featherlight]

I was looking up "grief" and somehow I found myself at JE's petition. I was very sad to hear he was going off the air, which I didn't know because I am not an all-the-time watcher, but I am a believer in his work, and that of Sylvia Browne. I have found his work very helpful and not only that, reasonable. Not only for me, but also for others I have talked with. While I don't push John's beliefs on anyone, many seem to be comforted by what he has to say. Just tonight, on our local Colorado news, there was the story of a woman who was lost off the trail in a snowmobiling accident on our Western Slope. She waited hours for help, but she was hidden, and her cries could not be heard where she was. But a little boy was riding the trail on the back of his Father's snowmobile, and suddenly he saw a golden-haired little girl (this just happened yesterday) standing in the trail, wearing a blue jacket, waving, and screaming for help. The boy pounded on his Father's back and made him turn around to where he had seen the little girl, but she had vanished. Just then they heard the woman's weak cries for help. Her back had been broken as her snowmobile left the traile and crashed into a tree and down a ravine several hours before, and she had given up all hope of survival as the sun began to go down. The boy and his Father were the last snowmobile to go by. The woman was, of course saved. The little girl had disappeared; there were no tracks indicating she had ever been there whatsoever. But later they heard that a child fitting her description had been killed in a similar snowmobiling accident in the same vicinity quite a few years before. This is the kind of story that lets me know that "Something" is out there. In a similar way, so does JE. In this world of sorrow and loss, we need to know that this is not "all there is" and JE helps so many know this. I feel that he is not here at this time by accident.

So glad you find your way to this site too.

Look forward to seeing you around the board.

That was me!! I was so taken aback by that story! I used to live in Glenwood Springs, right against those very woods (well, pretty much!) so I was struck that such a "supernatural" thing could happen near my old stomping grounds, to a little boy, to enable him to save this woman who would never, ever have been discovered (the snowmobile engines were maing too much noise so her feeble cries could not possibly be heard down in this ravine and she was hidden from view.) She came on TV and told the story, and they interviewed the little boy, and his Father, too. The Father didn't see the phantom little girl--just the little boy did. Amazing! But, of course, in JE and Sylvia's worlds, this stuff goes on all around us, at all times, every day! Cheers, Wendy :daisy:

Nice to hear from you, all the way in the UK! : )

Actually there's Leah and kymmudd who have posted a few times. There are a number of others who are members, but they've not posted. Eyebelieve, Jongib, Kaydoyle, Lana, Lizzy, LouAngel, Nellie989, Stacy, and Strummer. You could try and email them, if their profile allows it. Perhaps you'll luck out and there's one in your neighborhood.
