Book Description
Time travel is Angelika’s destiny. In my previous book, The Healing Circle, Angelika journeyed into the 17th century where she experienced three days within the horrors of a black plague outbreak. With the guidance of a wise matron and a dedicated physician she survived with the help of her fellow healers. In this sequel ‘Saints and Sinners’ Angelika continues her journey. After finishing her nursing training she feels the need to pay it forward by volunteering in a state of the art underground hospital during a modern day plague outbreak in 1972. Shortly after reuniting with her family, she once again is summoned to visit the past. Perhaps it is her gift of healing or her openness towards other dimensions which predestines her journey; this time into the 13th century to the Wartburg, an ancient castle sitting in the hills of Thuringia. There she meets Saint Elizabeth the patron saint of the church of her hometown and becomes reacquainted with her first true love. Is it possible that love can bridge centuries dimensions apart?

Author: Nadia Bolz-Weber Publisher: Jericho Books ISBN: 1455527068 Category : Psychology Languages : en Pages : 164
Book Description
Now a New York Times bestselling author, Nadia Bolz-Weber takes no prisoners as she reclaims the term "pastrix"(pronounced "pas-triks," a term used by some Christians who refuse to recognize female pastors) in her messy, beautiful, prayer-and-profanity laden narrative about an unconventional life of faith. Heavily tattooed and loud-mouthed, Nadia, a former stand-up comic, sure as hell didn't consider herself to be religious leader material—until the day she ended up leading a friend's funeral in a smoky downtown comedy club. Surrounded by fellow alcoholics, depressives, and cynics, she realized: These were her people. Maybe she was meant to be their pastor. Using life stories—from living in a hopeful-but-haggard commune of slackers and her unusual but undeniable spiritual calling to her experiences pastoring people from all walks of life—and poignant honesty, Nadia portrays a woman who is both deeply faithful and deeply flawed, giving hope to the rest of us along the way. Wildly entertaining and deeply resonant, this is the book for people who hunger for a bit of hope that doesn't come from vapid consumerism; for women who talk too loud and guys who love chick flicks; and for the gay person who loves Jesus and won't be shunned by the church. In short, this book is for every misfit suspicious of institutionalized religion but who is still seeking transcendence and mystery.
