    Barry and Connie Strohm channeledb Charles Dickens and Jimmy Stewart

    There is a 104 year gap between Charles Dickens' book A Christmas Carol published in 1843, and Jimmy Stewart's  movie It's A Wonderful Life which came out in 1947 but both are classics and watched or read when Christmas comes around. You might think that the stories would have nothing in common, but think again. We had a nice chat with Charles Dickens and Jimmy Stewart and they had lots to say.

    Belinda Womock-Lessons from the Twelve Archangels: Divine Intervention in Daily Life

    Angels are loving forces in our lives. Each of us has the ability to communicate with them if we open our minds to their teachings. Belinda Womack was a believer in Angels until the age of 12, when she decided she wanted to become a scientist. Years later, working in a biology lab, she found herself in the presence of the Archangel Gabriel and realized her calling as a spiritual conduit for Angelic healing and support.

    Ron always says that I'm his favorite West Coast Witch although I'm not sure that he knows any witches on the West Coast so I'm not sure it's true,  but I do know that Ron knows quite a few East Coast witches, and have no doubt that Judika is his favorite East Coast witch.
