WORKS
Nancy van Alphen takes us on her unexpected spiritual journey that changed her from agnostic to believer. A humorous peak into her childhood, during which she had but a mere smattering of religion, paints the picture of an ordinary girl living an ordinary life. As a teen she concluded God was unprovable and never looked back—until God decided He wasn’t content being a mere possibility.
Alone one night, Nancy happened upon a video of a young man given little time to live. Heartfelt compassion morphed into anger as she raised her fists and railed about suffering to a God in whom she didn’t really believe. To her utter amazement, God responded.
Thus begins her journey in which she traverses a surreal chasm between doubt and belief, caught between Heaven and Earth as she struggles to understand messages she was given about suffering, reincarnation—including her own—and humanity’s true identity. With a sprinkling of light-hearted family anecdotes, Nancy recalls her progressively more profound experiences within the context of earthly reality. Interactions with God, Jesus and angels chip away at her agnosticism, until one day something so amazing happens it obliterates all traces of doubt.
“Ladybugs and Hummingbirds”
A short story published in Mystical Interludes II, by Emily Rodavich
Years before Nancy van Alphen experienced a series of Divine encounters that awakened her to a new, spiritual reality, she had an unexpected visit from her deceased mother. She chalked it up to coincidence, but in retrospect, it was a sign of things to come. In her short story “Ladybugs and Hummingbirds,” Nancy tests her new-found wisdom to re-connect with her mother on the other side of the veil. The results are magical.
Mystical Interludes II is a collection of ordinary people’s mystical experiences.
