I'm honored to have staff at the Washoe County Library System ask me to speak at five venues in February and March. Each event is free and open to the public. Ill be speaking on the topic: From Skeptic to Believer: A Night in the Goldfield Hotel. In this 45-minute presentation, I'll discuss the mental and spiritual journey I embarked [...]
In my years running the Nevada Ghost and Paranormal Series, I’ve met many people who’ve told me intuitive abilities run in their families. While I ascribe to the belief that we all have some degree of extra sensory perception (ESP), I also think genetics and the environment we grow up in play major roles as [...]
I used to view people who had different spiritual beliefs with skepticism and fear. I kept to my own kind—because I thought everyone else was going to hell. Then a realization occurred to me: I recognized my behavior as bigotry. And, it startled me. That was in 1989 while I was on a safari [...]
I can't believe I'm now in my fourth year of writing posts for "God, Ghosts and Gut Instincts!" Frankly, when I started I wasn't sure I'd have enough to say to fill one year--but apparently I did. As I plan out posts for the next couple months, I'd love to hear from you about what [...]
To learn how to clear your personal space, see last week’s post “Clearing Your Space and Removing Stagnate Energy.” From time to time, people contact me about unnerving ghostly activity in their homes or offices and ask for advice on how to make it stop. Here’s what I share with them: First, I ask, “Are [...]
Curiosity. Consistent crankiness. Living in fear. A string of minor ailments. These can be indications of a need to clear your personal space. Whether you’ve picked up another person’s or spirit’s energy or you’ve just let yourself stagnate, it’s a good idea to cleanse yourself and/or your home. First of all, it’s important that [...]
I gave my first hour-long spirituality talk at the request of a shop owner who wanted to hear how my Christian beliefs evolved after I encountered other-worldly activity at the Goldfield Hotel. At the beginning of my talk I stated my goal was for others to find their own spiritual path. So a few minutes [...]
Recently scientists proclaimed they proved ghosts didn’t exist. They said the brain creates an illusion of spirits when it receives conflicting sensory-motor signals when we are stressed, overly exerted or ill. But while this research may address one sliver of the paranormal activity pie, it’s far from relegating the Other World to the byproduct of [...]
Recently, a good friend of mine asked me to sit in the ICU waiting room with her while she awaited the outcome of her loved one’s surgery. She told me, “I wanted you here because God listens to you and he doesn’t listen to me.” This is so sad. And so wrong. I don’t have [...]
Recently there was a brouhaha when Raven-Symoné, the youngest star in the 1980s TV program the “Cosby Show,” said she won’t label herself by race or sexual identity. “I don’t want to be labeled ‘gay.’ I want to be labeled a human who loves humans,” she told Oprah Winfrey during a televised interview.
