The night of the book reading on Dec. 19th at the Depot Bookstore and Cafe in Mill Valley CA was a joining of forces: the natural elements with the bold moxy of the human spirit.  A hearty crowd gathered together, bucking the elements of hail, slashing rain, thunder and yes! LIGHTNING! Lightning Rod Publications never misses an opportunity to remind the people gathered at these readings that they are in the presence of the energy LIGHTNING itself, from which this publishing company derived its name. As I stepped outside in the downpour to bring in armloads of books, a prominent bolt of lightning illuminated the way to my car. I smiled inwardly and thanked it for the convenience of greater visibility. And in a sense, that's what this book is about: greater visibility in the storms of fear and deception and the blinding deluge of every diversion to truth imaginable. Maybe lightning itself, which all will agree has gotten a bad rap in the past for its potentially destructive powers, is in fact the great illuminator that cuts through the elements, grounding the forces of the higher consciousness to the earth.

Tony and I joined forces for a rousting evening. A man who was sitting in the front row when Tony was speaking said he just had to keep making expansive adjustments within himself to accommodate for Tony's force field. It was a great evening. Everyone left charged with good energy.
