Faith, Power, Joy

Spiritual Guidance from 5 Generations of Remarkable Women

Beschreibung

Faith, Power, Joy tells the multi-generational saga of a family of women who followed their intuition, demonstrated their faith, and transformed their challenges into opportunities for service and joy. The women’s stories begin in 1890, when the author’s great grandmother challenged a family friend in a bet and went on to overcome unexpected tragedy, grief and loss. She learned to share her faith through love and helping others heal. Her daughter enjoyed a stellar career as an educator in the public schools, which she achieved through determination to overcome the limiting social norms of her times, and her eldest daughter confronted lifetime illness and personal loss with courage and determination. The author reveals these women’s secrets for successful living as well as her own personal growth through spiritual practice and holistic healing, while her own daughter shares the source of her strength though her devotionals and examples of Christ-centered living. Their stories are both joyful and heartbreaking as each reveals her methods for overcoming adversity and transforming obstacles into opportunities. These remarkable women built on the spiritual growth of their foremothers. They share their secrets for creating powerful and courageous lives through applying the spiritual principles of forgiveness, love, faith and service. Their stories inspire us with timeless guidance to harness our inner power, live by our faith, and share our joy.

Autor

Sheryl A. Stradling is a pioneer in the holistic health movement. A Reiki, breathwork and Chi Gong practitioner, she has facilitated women's spiritual and personal-growth groups, taught natural-foods nutrition and cooking, and assisted individuals in healing themselves physically, emotionally and spiritually. Her spiritual journey began at thirteen by dedicating her life to God. Although she didn't comprehend the magnitude of her commitment, she recognized that she was embarking on a transformational journey. She taught herself to meditate and use self-hypnosis to gain greater control over her emotions. She has continued her spiritual path to inner awareness and healing through daily practice. A member of a family of writers, Sheryl has written journals since she was twelve. She continues to use them as a means to express and work through emotions, create and use positive affirmations, understand dreams, and to invoke the power of the subconscious to realize greater spiritual truth. Through her writing, she accesses her inner wisdom, that of SpiritWoman, and follows her spiritual guidance to achieve greater self-understanding and help others. Sheryl grew up in the Pacific Northwest, and is descended from Washington State pioneers. Her background includes a family of educators, writers, artists and musicians. Her family has called the metro Seattle area home for over 100 years. A perennial student, Sheryl enjoys reading and studying metaphysics, genealogy and herbal lore. She relishes being outdoors in nature where she pursues studying plants, jogging and working in her experimental garden. She is also an abstract artist, and derives her inspiration from the natural world.
