1920s Tonopah. Well past its mining heyday, but still a busy rural Nevada community. Located midway between Reno and Las Vegas on Nevada State Highway 95, this town offered a welcome respite for travelers seeking a break from the desert heat and dust. Its buildings—both elegant Victorians and hastily constructed shacks—appear cradled up in the [...]
I routinely disappoint myself. After all the lessons I’ve learned and the blessings I’ve received, I should be better at heeding my own advice in a consistent manner. But I’m human and so I’m flawed. To move on, I need to accept my “human-ness.” A while back I contracted a strange virus. No cold or [...]
Thank you to Jessica (not her real name) for co-writing this blog with me. Jessica has possessed intuitive abilities since she was a baby. Her mom would frequently watch her infant daughter suddenly shift her gaze and focus on something invisible. One day after elementary school, Jessica sat on the couch at home. Although alone, [...]
Kathy's regular blog, "God, Ghosts and Gut Instincts" will return on Wednesday, Jan. 23. Thank you to Janice Oberding for sending this traveling blog my way. This strong woman played a pivotal role preserving my sanity during the odd experiences I faced before, during and after the Goldfield Hotel. She continues to inspire me today. [...]

This is the second of two posts on my response to the Nevada Ghost and Paranormal Series’ “Religion and the Paranormal: A Panel Discussion,” which featured an evangelical pastor. See My Rebuttal to the Evangelical Stance on After Death Communications. As I noted two blogs ago, I respect this pastor’s beliefs. Yet, from my own [...]
During the Nevada Ghost and Paranormal Series, I moderated “Religion and the Paranormal: A Panel Discussion” that featured a rabbi, evangelical pastor, Buddhist and Muslim. The pastor was likeable and passionate about his beliefs, which I respect. But, while listening to his Biblical take on the paranormal, I realized my different positions on the subjects [...]
While meditating, I once asked the heavenly hosts how I could deal with a woman who had twice tried to get me fired from my job. I had a meeting later that day and knew she would be in attendance. The message I received was stunningly simple. Send her God’s love. Now, don’t roll your [...]
Thank you, Holly, for requesting this subject. When a premonition through a dream became reality, I labeled it a weird coincidence. And, when I felt unseen eyes watching me or couldn’t shake the sensation that I wasn’t alone, I attributed it to my active imagination. So when an instructor I work with proclaimed, “You can [...]
I’ll always be Christian. Jesus sings to my soul. His divine humanity gives me an awesome goal for which to strive. His lessons ring true to me: loving, accepting and helping one another, and the necessity of fostering a personal relationship with the Almighty without the need of a human intermediary. Being a Christian means [...]
