I must admit I had never picked up this book before, but once I got it in my hands
I became fascinated with Gawain's clear presentation and instructions on a subject that I
was exposed to years ago. Did you ever create a Treasure Map or tape pictures of things
you want to the refrigerator?

This is not a book for everyone. It is not a book to be quickly read. A portion of
one chapter would be sufficient for an evening's meditation. Its meaning is revealed in
moments of quiet reflection and openness to Spirit.
Written in the tradition of Kahlil Gibran's THE PROFIT, THE WATCHER stirs
the soul and reveals truths that the soul has always known. Through the rhythm and
cadence of the words, a harmony is established between the reader and the Watcher, her
adventures, and the insights she shares.
THE WATCHER is a call to contemplation. If you begin or end your day in
thoughtfulness, you will find THE WATCHER and ideal companion. Many find it to be
daily bread, for it feeds a part of them that they had forgotten needed to be nourished.
Softcover, 72 pp., $8.95.
I had the good fortune to attend the Rev. Dr. Johnnie Colemon's church a few
year ago. Once you are in her presence you will never forget her. Teachers like Rev.
Colemon don't come around that often. Here is powerful advise from a great woman of
spirit and soul. Here she shows us how to do what she has been doing for years ---- how
to stand on our own spiritual feet.
"My book," she writes, "is written from a spiritual stand point of healing, rather
than an intellectual one. The intellect is necessary, but it is the spiritual that is the moving
force for the healing to take place."
For the past 50 years, Rev. Colemon has preached a single message. "God's
desire for everyone is absolute good." From happiness and prosperity to health, the
message has always been the same and her church, the largest New Thought church in
the world and the largest seating-capacity church in Chicago, is living proof of her
success.
Johnnie Colemon's healing journey began when she was diagnosed with an
incurable disease in the early 1950's and decided to change her own prognosis. Since her
recovery, she could only think of one mission in life---to share this profound
understanding of spiritual Principle with the world through her ministry, and now with
her book, OPEN YOUR MIND and BE HEALED.
