Two instances in the past month have shown me that some don’t realize the power of love, its enduring nature and how the passing of the physical shell doesn’t lessen, but empowers this richest of all emotions. While discussing a visitation dream I had with a crossed-over family member, another relative said, “No. That can’t [...]
May you find time to enjoy this amazing holiday season! I was fortunate to have the Reno Gazette-Journal write an article on my book, "A Reluctant Spirit: A True Tale of God, Ghosts and a Skeptical Christian."

The other night, I managed a ghost hunt field trip for my job at the historic Union Hotel (built sometime between the 1850s and 1870) in Dayton, Nevada, one of the state’s oldest communities. Like many of our field trips, a handful of participants had unexpected paranormal encounters—not with spirits from another era—but with their [...]
Thanks to regular reader ElizaBeth for suggesting this topic. When it comes to hauntings, I usually think of souls who haven’t crossed over to the light.
