This week I'm talking to Steve Herman about his book, Spiritual Mediumship,

a medium's adventures with the spirit world.

Stephen holds credentials as an ordained minister, certified medium,

and teacher with the National Spiritualist Association of Churches in the USA

and has taught for the International Spiritualist Federation in the UK

and he is a former research medium for the University of Virginia.

Hi Steve, thanks a lot for coming on the podcast.

Well, hello, I'm so happy to be here.

I really appreciate you having me on as a guest.

So we're going to talk about mediumship and about your book, which is spiritual

mediumship, a medium's adventures with the spirit world. So can you tell us how this all

started for you? Are you very young? Everybody is obviously everybody's psychic.

Everybody has intuitive abilities.

So in order to be a medium,

you're basically just using your psychic abilities

to be able to connect with the spirit world.

So it's not like someone who is a medium

is on some type of pedestal and has some type of super

extraordinary powers or abilities so i've always been really really open to the spirit world
