Divinely Touched is a story of personal transformation. It chronicles Marys spiritual awakening, how she was divinely saved, led, and transformed. From the depths of depression, from battles with physical ailments for which the medical profession had no explanations, from being led into worlds she never knew existed, she survived being taken to the underworld. She was guided and healed by light workers, shamans, and avatars from this world and the spirit dimension and led on a journey of personal, physical, mental, and spiritual healing. Marys experience, like that of a caterpillar when transformed into a beautiful butterfly, is one that will inspire, enlighten, and transform your life as well. Dr. Dave uses science, research, and knowledge of the ages to explain what Mary experienced and open worlds to the reader that they may never have imagined. Divinely Touched: Transform Your Life can, in fact, do just that. With painstaking detail, Mary describes her descent into darkness and her triumphant return. Like Margaret Starbird, in The Goddess in the Gospels, who also has a spiritual awakening that took her into the realms of psychosis, Mary describes a similar personal descent into darkness before bursting forth into spiritual awareness. Inside you will find a compelling story that may help you or someone you love. Maureen St. Germain, author of Beyond the Flower of Life & You Are the Genie in the Bottle The world is waiting for this powerful story of good vs. evil. Marys story is amazing, compelling, eye-opening, and courageous. Her faith has carried her through the darkness into the light. She is Gods instrument and truly a living expression of divine light flowing forth into the world. Divinely Touched is a must-read, and you wont want to put it down. It will blow your mind! Pat Hastings, Author of Simply a Woman of Faith: How to Live in Spiritual Power and Transform Your Life Marys amazing story will capture your interest and touch your heart. You will be inspired to move forward on your own journey of awakening. Andrew Oser, author of How Alternation Can Change Your Life; Finding the Rhythms of Health and Happiness Divinely Touched is a wonderful book that documents an impassioned and heartfelt account of the pitfalls and triumphs of personal awakening.

“Excited about life? Or do the events of each day flow into an unending sea of gray? Are the sunny days too few and the cloudy days ever threatening? Is there a spring to your step and a twinkle of teasing in your eyes? Does a smile grace your lips and hope shape your vision? The search for a better life, an abundant life, seems to be humanity’s ever constant quest...” Spiritual Awareness introduces one to the joy of discovery. It is a discovery of the spiritual currents that flow within the present moments of the here and now. Amidst life’s ebb and flow, like the rising and falling tide, they are currents that form dynamic movements of spiritual realities. For the skeptic, it provides a vision of a reality that can be experienced beyond the crust of conventional culture. For the searcher, it reveals the mystery of beauty and wonder that lead to spiritual dimensions of worship. For those who suffer, it reveals the reality of a healing grace as spiritual insight reshapes the pain and suffering, consecrates it, and offers it as a humble sacrifice unto the Lord...in so doing, discovering God’s great mercy and comfort for the soul. Spiritual Awareness is an effort to combat the dullness and superficiality of our age. It seeks to probe more deeply into the mysteries that lie within the events of the common place by becoming increasingly aware of the presence and availability of the spiritual life. This awareness leads to an authentic life worth living only because it is steeped deeply in the greatest of all realities. This is true awakening. “All profits are intended to be given to charitable causes.”

There are many people that have enriched my life and I have always held them close to my heart. But there is always that one person that you hold even closer, I called her Sandy...I lost touch with her back in 1979 and wanted to find her.

She died June 4, 2000.I was too late to say the things I never said, "I never forgot you, and thank you for enriching my life with your presence in mine."
