June 2020 - THE AUTHOR SHOW

If you feel helpless and lost right now, I’m so excited to share my recent interview with Don MacCauley on the Author Show!

You and me – let’s sit and visit together! I’ll be talking about God’s plan for us on our planet and how the book answers the hard questions (click, and it will load up for you)!

"What are we here for? Why is there so much wrong in the world?" 

The book gives you those answers and teach you how to build a belief system powerful enough to change your reality.

The Celestial Proposal takes you deep into your spirituality, syncs it to 21st-century cutting-edge science, and backs it with the original basic beliefs in Christianity.

It’s a how-to handbook for your future!

I talk about my upcoming fiction series and read a dynamic excerpt from my non-fiction book, THE CELESTIAL PROPOSAL: Our Invitation to Join the God Kind

My new spiritual-visionary, upmarket fiction book is complete! It takes an author many phases of editing to perfect it for submission to agents and editors. Now, at the last stage, the manuscript has been sent out to beta readers, friends, and professionals for final advice.

Based on some riveting events in my younger life, it’s a fast-paced coming-of-age story set against the background of hippie days and the Vietnam War. But best of all, it is the first book in a series. I’ll keep you updated. Watch for a cover design contest coming up!

Writer’s Digest Review December 2/ 2016 

Well structured and well organized, this is a challenging new look at faith through fresh eyes. The author (writes), “I suggest that you sit in a pitch-black auditorium or other very large room, and then light a single candle and see what happens. You will find that no matter how vast the darkness may be, light always overcomes it.” Review by Writer’s Digest Review

PROFESSIONAL REVIEWS:
Kirkus Reviews gives a glowing review!   January 17/2014

(Read in full HERE)

“A passionate rereading of Christianity and the nature of personal faith…Familiar concepts, sure, but Rozek’s unconventional perspective makes them seem invigoratingly new. A well-written and welcoming take on the traditional tenets of Western religion.”

–Kirkus Reviews

ForeWord Reviews: Featured in the December issue!  December 1/2013

(Read in full HERE)

“This mash-up of Bible + sci-fi + metaphysics has introduced new lines of thought for meditation and consideration.

Identifying faith as a force for shifting manifest reality, Jane Catherine Rozek untethers Bible verses from their historic, traditional moorings. Calling the Bible an empowering formula for activating faith as a power source, she reboots scripture to read like a science fiction thriller with God as an extraterrestrial collective of Great Ones and Jesus as our Superhero.”
