The page you entered when you typed in the main wsharing site address is the "index" page.  It is the one with the nice music by John Two-Hawks.  Throughout the site it is referred to as  HOME .  Click on the word  HOME  on any menu to come back to the beginning.  There are several basic options which are linked to this HOME page.  

The first three choices on the HOME page remain the core pages (there used to be five).

 Golgotha Cross
I have many people remark, or ask, about the crosses I wear
an explanation is linked under my photo at the bottom of the HOME page

The whole site used to revolve around the five primary choices on the HOME page.  I called them the five heartbeats of a touch of william.  But, on January 1, 2005 the Teaching & Sharing Center(s) became a Michigan non-profit corporation, and is now legally a separate entity.  Then, in May 2005 christian life programs and the poet's circle became DBAs (assumed names) of the T&SC, and atow and CBTC became affiliated ministries.  The COMMON MENU has changed, but the site still functions pretty much the same with this menu as the chief navigator.  There are twelve choices now on the COMMON MENU.  This menu is the same on each page where it appears, and the links always go to the same place regardless of which page you accessed them from. The link color changes, so you will readily know what you have already visited.  Each of the COMMON MENU pages (those the links lead to) has an emphasis, and often some items only reachable through that individual page.  However, using the COMMON MENU will connect you to virtually every option throughout this website.  The twelve are:

 [HOME]

Just a reminder;  the above COMMON MENU appears on each of the main pages to which it connects you, except the HOME page (instead it also appears at the bottom of this "navigation" page).  The menu selections always take you to the same entry pages, no matter where you are clicking on them from.  The menu text changes colors when you use a link, which will be your clue that you have already visited certain primary pages.

The vast majority of what is on the website can be accessed through the COMMON MENU shown (above).  However, I will mention a few items of special interest, or things people have asked me about, and their specific locations.  Some of these are:

Cherokee Historical Sites - Also on the CBTC page, this link takes you to the Scrapbook Photos table of contents page, where Cherokee historical sites are outlined in white. 

When you click on the Teaching & Sharing Centers option, you will enter the corporate area of the website.  You might notice a little different look to these pages.  Only the T&SC HOME page has the wsharing COMMON MENU on it.  All other solely corporate pages connect from, and return to, the T&SC HOME page (or to other pages which do so).  The three primary corporate pages have (left) side menus.  The options vary slightly on each page, but somewhere close to the top will be opportunies to: 

 Contact Us
which leads to the "Feedback & Contact" page mentioned on the COMMON MENU

 Join Us
takes you to a Membership Form which can be typed into on your computer,
but must be printed, signed, and mailed in, to activate membership

 Help Us
connects to the "Make a donation" page mentioned on the COMMON MENU

Most of the links/pages in the corporate section are self-explanatory.  Below is a list of the primary links and page description, items using abbreviations, and some special pages:

    T&SC Home Page
is the same Teaching & Sharing Centers page referred to as  T&SC Corporate Pages
on the wsharing COMMON MENU.  It is the opening access to corporate pages
and the one you would typically return to in order to exit the corporate pages

 christian life programs (clp)
the clp page explains the usage of this DBA (assumed name or "doing business as")

 the poet's circle and Membership (tpcM)
the tpcM page explains the poet's circle and corporate membership options
it has several links, including to the Membership Form and a direct newsletters link

 Michigan Living History Encampment (MLHE)
explains about our "teaching center" which is a part of a Grand Ledge festival

 Independent Affiliated Ministries, Missions, Merchants, or Mentors (IAMs)
provides information about our independent affiliate program
and lists the connections to webpages for each one

 Communications & Documents
also has links to the Membership Form and a direct newsletters link
plus it is the only connection to various documents like our IRS 501c3 Ruling
and internal documents such as our by-laws, mission, purpose, and financial statements

Some of the links in the corporate pages will take you into the pages of the wsharing COMMON MENU because our activities and information are so intertwined. Usually there will be links to reconnect to the area you came from, but if not, remember you can always use your "back" button to return to a previous page.  

Well, that's pretty much it.  As you explore, you will find many pages which have individualized links for other pages relating to that page, such as "additional quotes," "more photos," etc.  You'll want to watch for these because, since the site is photo intensive (photos take longer to open on slower systems), I try not to make any one page too long, and use them quite often.  There is no common index for these types of pages, you can only access them, or even know they exist, when you visit the page they are tied to.  Like most sites, links you have already visited will appear in a different color or hue, but there is plenty to see, so enjoy your journey.  Now, where would you like to start?
