Jillian Maas Backman: BEYOND THE PEWS

  WINNER of 2012 San Francisco Book Festival Award, Spirituality Category! BEYOND THE PEWS is making a splash all across the country. Everywhere author Jillian Maas Backman presents “Conversation with Jillian” readers are in awe of her down to earth attitude and humor. An interactive biography, BEYOND THE PEWS takes readers step by step into another dimension of their spiritual path. Jillian shares the personal account of her journey from spiritual innocence into a religious wilderness where she often hid behind her father’s powerful preacher’s robe.  For many years she hoped her intuitive gifts would simply go away, but they never did.  “I remained reclusive within the untainted spirit world until I became comfortable with my spiritual individuality and emerged from the sacred shadows into the awakened light of day.” Jillian eventually she learned to embrace the duality of her traditional religious upbringing and her connection with uncensored, untainted spirit. After years of processing these faith-based sensory perceptions, she discovered the soul’s natural intuitive language.

Southern Fried Homicide: The Mary Winkler Case with Diane Fanning

Southern murder, is it different than murder anywhere else? You decide! Southern Fried Homicide, a new program on Investigation Discovery, is covering murder made in the South. The featured case starting on Wednesday, June 26 is the Mary Winkler case written about by Diane Fanning in her book THE PASTOR’S WIFE. When Pastor Matthew Winkler was found dead at his Fourth Street Church of Christ parsonage in Selmer, Tennessee, both police investigators and parishioners were shaken and mystified: How could evil strike this cradle of faith? Meanwhile, Mrs. Winkler and her three daughters were still missing… A frantic search for Mary Winkler and the girls ensued.

What sexual and psychological abuses did she allege she had suffered?   In the months that followed, the crime—and the Winkler’s marriage—would be exposed by the national media; Mary herself even appeared on Oprah. Set in a world of domineering men, obedient wives, and unshakable …

Tune in Thursdays at 1pm ET, 12pm CT Listen LIVE: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/jillianmaasbackman From Jillian Maas Backman: Salvation, Reclamation, Deliverance, and Emancipation  All adjectives used to describe an open-ended religious promise offered to any one who repents and faithfully follows the word of spirit. A unilateral commitment from above that one can be “saved” and forgiven for any sinful acts of deviance. Does this religious safety net genuinely apply to everyone?  Redemption without exception? A  “get out of hell jail” free card waiting in the wings for all?   Even for those who commit murderous acts so vile, on-lookers turn their heads away in shame? Can we uphold and stand in this truism in any circumstance, including serial killers?  As forgiving beings, do we have the capacity to sincerely welcome these spiritual evil-castaways back into …
