The Priest and the Medium: The Amazing True Story of Psychic Medium B. Anne Gehman and Her Husband, Former Jesuit Priest Wayne Knoll, Ph.D.

Every love story contains its own language and mythology, including a fateful first meeting and a unique set of challenges to overcome. Author Giesemann, a motivational speaker and former Navy Commander, finds a dramatic and insightful example in the true love story of spiritualist minister-psychic medium B. Anne Gehman and Jesuit priest-turned-Georgetown University professor Knoll. Giesemann pursues their parallel stories from disparate beginnings-Gehman was raised a Mennonite, Knoll a Roman Catholic-through their training, careers and their destined rendevous. Even more fascinating than the unlikely soulmates' love story, however, are tales of Gehman's predictions, including JFK's assassination, and her work with police and government agencies in Queens, N.Y. and Washington D.C. Giesemann also presents a conversation about faith with Gehman and Knoll at their lakeside home in Lily Dale, N.Y. Romantics with interest in faith and/or true crime should find this a stirring read.
