Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
With the surge of public interest in angels over the last couple of years comes this thoughtful presentation by a former theology instructor at the University of Notre Dame. Freeman details both her own angelic encounters and those of other people. Though she is quick to point out that discernment is necessary in interpreting the meaning of possible angelic encounters, she seeks to explain the nature of angels by drawing on both theological sources and her own intuitive perceptions. Her conclusions are speculative because angels (if they exist) do not have material form and thus cannot be subjected to scientific inquiry, but the stories presented provide fascinating glimpses of sometimes miraculous, seemingly divine intervention into people's lives. Written in a conversational style, this book should be popular in public libraries.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most authentic book about the angels I've ever read, June 16, 1998

By A Customer

Touched by Angels is one of those rare books that includes, rather than excludes readers. It isn't polemical or designed to criticize views of angels other than the author's. The author asks important questions like Why are we so interested in angels these days, and Why are the angels so interested in us? and she answers them very cogently. The stories of angelic intervention reflect the experiences of people of all religions and no religion, of white and black and hispanic, of men and women and kids, of people in danger or not. She writes in an easy conversational style that doesn't require a dictionary to understand! The book is great. I recommend it highly.
