The Priest and the Medium: The Amazing True Story of Psychic Medium B. Anne Gehman and Her Husband, Former Jesuit Priest Wayne Knoll, Ph.D. [Large Print] [Paperback]

Suzanne Giesemann (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 12, 2010

Anne Gehman gave her first spirit readings to her teddy bears at the age of five. Raised in the Mennonite tradition, she left home at age 14 to finish her schooling. A lifechanging neardeath experience led Anne to develop her natural gifts, including an uncanny ability to predict future events. She has gained international attention for her help in solving crimes, locating oil and missing persons, healing illnesses, and connecting family members with their loved ones in spirit. She has worked with top government agencies and officials, police departments, judges, and corporate CEOs. While remarkable for her spiritual work and experiences, Annes life is all the more fascinating due to an unusual twist: she is married to Wayne Knoll, Ph.D., a former Jesuit priest. A brilliant student devoted to his faith, Wayne also left home at 14, and then joined a Roman Catholic seminary. Even while pursuing his dream job as a professor of literature at Georgetown University, Wayne felt an emptiness that only a woman could fill. After almost 20 years of religious training, he made the wrenching decision to leave the priesthood, not knowing if he would find the love he sought. The Priest and the Medium shares the remarkable story of two soul mates on parallel paths with divergent beliefs, yet united in their love for God and each other.

Suzanne Giesemann has produced a wonderful book, very beautifully written, filled with emotion, inspiration, and joy - I gobbled it up with many different emotions coming to the surface of my being. This was one of the most enjoyable books I've read in a long time - the life journeys of two talented people that is a real page-turner!

Through the excellent story telling of Suzanne Giesemann, Anne, a Spiritualist Medium, and Wayne, a former Jesuit Priest have opened their lives, their hearts, and their beliefs to the world.

If you believe in a life beyond this earthly existence, you will find this book thrilling. If not, you may find this book will change your entire outlook on life. Suzanne Giesemann's writing talent combines with her love for people to bring us a book that is highly entertaining while holding profound messages for all humanity. Her words flow lovingly and sensitively over the pages, and I found myself lost in the intensity of her storytelling.
This is a book to buy, to read, to re-read, and to pass on to family and friends. Truly, my life has been enriched by reading "The Priest and the Medium." My thanks to this fine author!

This review is from: The Priest and the Medium: The Amazing True Story of Psychic Medium B. Anne Gehman and Her Husband, Former Jesuit Priest Wayne Knoll, Ph.D. (Paperback)

This book was written about my Uncle Wayne and my Aunt Anne Gehman. Wayne is the oldest son from my father's family of nine. I have been fortunate to be able to spent some time with both of them over the years so I know from experience that the incredible inspiring stories from this book are all fact and not fiction.

Trust me when I say this book is hard to put down since it was written so beautifully and since the characters, Wayne and Anne, are so unique and one of kind. Their life experiences are something movies are made out of and these true stories about them will definitely touch you in a way that will be positive and life changing.

I could go on, but just trust me...get the book, read it and thank me later.
