Working with Stuart and her other regression subjects for this book was the most amazing experience Joanna Prentis has ever had with any of her clients. The information that poured forth was incredible and the energies in the room were so blissful and powerful. The happiness of being with Jesus was out of this world and breathtaking, but the sadness and confusion after the crucifixion were a complete contrast. She hopes this book will convey some of this. It is an amazing story and one she feels whose time has come. Joanna made her transition in November, 2020.
