Synopsis
It wasn't enough that the intruder murdered Elaine's husband before her eyes, shot her brother through the
chest and pistol-whipped her after the gun which he put in her face misfired. He then eluded police and contacted
her a year later with a promise to find and kill her and her infant daughter.
It required several years, the expertise of a highly-skilled psychiatrist, and indomitable courage for her to reconstruct her shattered life and finally emerge into public life as a physician.
When critical illness ended her career, she experienced a transcendent vision, and reported being transported to a
place beyond finite time and space, deep into Divine mystery.
She returned with an eternal perspective on good, evil, and forgiveness--a cosmic epiphany vigorously analyzed and debated in the dialogue between a university psychology professor and her own psychotherapist who is also a theologian.
James E. Gebhart, Ph.D. is both a United Methodist minister and a Clinical Psychologist. He has been in independent practice for thirty-five years. He wrote this book to share Elaine's inspirational and moving story.
