Summary
Rachel Jacques was saved by an angel after falling into icy waters. Did this ensure a clear straight path in her journey of faith? Rachel has bounced from Anglican, to anti-Christian, to Judaism, and then back to Christian, thanks in part to a dream of the mother of Jesus. Is Rachel done faith–traveling?
