Naughton, Virginia, in the late 1950s was a town of old money, even older prejudice, and deeply rooted complacency. It should have been obvious to the lay leaders of the Episcopal Church that an unorthodox and troubled man like Thomas Lewis Buckford was not the right choice for pastor of Trinity Church. Tom Buckford is a man in spiritual bankruptcy. His marriage is an empty shell. The wealth and snobbery of his new parish make a mockery of his ideals, and despair has blotted out his love of God. Then Tom meets Elizabeth McEwen and sets out on a course of disaster. Tom and Elizabeth fall in love with the famished hunger of long deprivation. But this forbidden love affair soon leaps beyond the bounds of physical passion to become a consuming spiritual awakening. Just as she did in A Book of Angels, Sophy Burnham has created a magnificent portrait of the mystery, the wonder, and the searing beauty of spiritual experience. Filled with stunning insight and riveting drama, Revelations is ultimately a story of confrontation between God's will and man's, between good and evil, between the material and the spiritual, between human laws and transcendent love.
In this luminous, thought-provoking companion volume to the NBC television series " The Mysterious Messengers," some of our most powerfully original thinkers and spiritual leaders explore the place and meaning of angels in the modern world. Interspersed with interviews are mesmerizing true stories of angelic encounters -- flash visitations of angels to warn and comfort and heal ordinary men and women in their hours of greatest physical and spiritual need.

Když psala Sophy Burnhamová Knihu andělů, vzbudila o tento jev opravdový zájem. Jakmile byla kniha poprvé vydána, stala se okamžitě bestsellerem. Tento krásný svazek nejen přináší mimořádné pravdivé příběhy o současných setkáních s anděly, ale také sleduje tento fenomén v průběhu dějin i v různých kulturách. Předmětem autorčina zájmu jsou mocní mužští andělé Starého zákona, andělé v zoroastrismu, buddhističtí bódhisattvové, islámští andělé, hinduističtí apsaraové, tajemní andělé židovské kabaly, cherubové, serafové, strážní andělé, andělé smrti a další. Co jsou andělé? Jak vypadají? Koho navštěvují? Proč se objeví někdy, ale jindy zase ne? A hlavně, poznali byste je, kdyby k vám skutečně přišli? Burnhamová podává s neobyčejným citem výmluvnou informaci z prostoru mezi nebem a zemí. Kniha andělů je sondou do záhady o andělích i chvalozpěvem na život.
