Have you ever experienced the whispers of the unknown? Have chills raced through you when you knew something would happen before it occurred? Experiences like these and so much more are part of the mind-tingling experiences Linda Stirling shares with us in Confessions of a Sunday School Psychic. She explores the challenges she faced as a child who knew she was psychic; how the religious beliefs of others affected her; and how she ultimately came to believe it's the Creator-energy connection that allows psychics to see what they see. Travel with her as she sees the spiritual world unfold in a multitude of ways, some of them frightening and some of them heart-touching . . . all of them unforgettable
I can only say that there's a knowing in your spirit when you read the truth. I loved the ending the most. I see God in the same way. Thank you for such encouraging words also. Blessings galore!!
This is one of the few books covering the possibility of psychic abilities that I didn't put down before finishing. Although it was an easy and quick read, it also contained much food for thought. The book did several things, which I appreciate. First, it wasn't all "me, me, me" like some psychics have a tendency to do when writing a book about spiritual gifts. The author tells about herself and her experiences, but does not lead the reader to believe that she is any more gifted than anyone else, and reminds the reader that God gifts us all. She also doesn't get too warm and fuzzy, and actually acknowledges that, yes, there is evil out there. Many of these types of books would lead everyone to believe that there is only goodness and love. All in all, it was an interesting read.
I read the kindle edition of this book, and found it a very soothing read. Linda Stirling has re-opened my mind to the possibilities of psychic perception. She has also re-opened the conversation about religion' rejection of psychic abilities, a sad reality that closes the minds of some who might otherwise use these skills to help themselves and others.
In her story, she tells of the people who came to her for help with physical symptoms that she was able to heal with gentleness and patience. Her description of how she has regressed to former lives and then progressed to future existence was totally engaging.
Her comfortable relationship with her guides, and with her Creator, is clearly inviting to the rest of us ... an invitation to be still and to listen, and feel, the connections we have with our own guides, and our own Creator. Some of her expressions reminded me of the term "Namaste" ~ a term I learned and understood as I studied Ancient India in preparation to teach it to sixth graders. The belief that we are all one, interconnected not only with each other but also with our guides (I think of them as my angels) and our Creator is the basis of the Hindu teachings, and so we recognize our Creator in every one that we encounter. It is such a warming thought to share, and so important in my own career as a teacher. Teachers are healers in so many ways.
I felt more comfortable with my own psychic sense. It's not something I've shared openly, but something that empowered me as a school teacher. I loved each of my students, and treated each as my own. I asked them always to treat each other as they would treat a favorite friend. Many did that, and many parents noticed a difference.
Please take the time to find this book, and read it. It will bring peace and understanding to you.
Confessions of a Sunday School Psychic by Linda Stirling is the most amazing book that I have read in a long time. It not only chronicles the journey of a psychic, it also explains the issues that she faced in coming to terms with her gift due to her religious background. This book is packed with inspiration, wisdom, and information that are beneficial to us all. The words of love and wisdom in this book would be an inspiration to anyone who reads it. I enjoyed the wealth of information and life examples that Ms. Stirling gave about spiritualism. I, myself, grew up in a religious upbringing but always questioned the strict beliefs about ghosts, psychic abilities, past lives, spirit guides, angels, and God in general. In reading this book I found myself smiling and nodding my head in agreement with much of what Ms. Stirling wrote. However, she gave me insight on some areas that I had not considered before. This book will make you think and delve deeper in your beliefs. I recommend this book to anyone who yearns for enlightenment.
Really enjoyed this book. Loved all the helpful websites. I have lots of Sylvia Brownes books, & Linda Stirling rates right up there with this book. Very down to earth & loving. Won this book on goodreads.com, & I thank you for that. Would love to have a reading from her some day.
Great read! Lots of book recommendations within that I'm looking forward to reading as well. Linda Stirling is very down to earth, and her book was an easy read. There were some big ideas broken down into very easy to understand explanations.
