Strong Woman, Unshrouding The Secrets Of The Soul

In this book, originally published in 2002, the late M. Sue Benford's STRONG WOMAN, Unshrouding the Secrets of the Soul recounts groundbreaking research on the controversial Shroud of Turin, believed by many to be the actual burial cloth of Jesus. It reveals yet another revelation of monumental proportions - irrefutable evidence of how the etheric image of Jesus got on the cloth and what it means to humankind. This evidence includes actual images from the quantum body, or what many call the "soul." Benford's story starts long before her work on the Shroud. When Susie Benford was a child she almost died from cancer. However, she survived but with multiple handicaps. Thwarted by both physical and emotional challenges, an inner strength propels her to a miraculous physical achievement when she becomes the strongest woman in the world (three-time World Powerlifting Champion, holder of all the World Records in the 97 lb. weight class).

Benford was a registered nurse, health care researcher, and Executive Director of a non-profit biomedical organization in Ohio. Her education was diverse, from the in-depth study of religion to pursuing scientific testing of unexplained paranormal phenomena: i.e. the Shroud of Turin and Spontaneous Human Combustion. STRONG WOMAN is a real-life transformation story full of hope, strength, encouragement, and inspiration that culminates in the understanding that there is much more to our existence than meets the eye. Susie's story is also the reader's story. One of parallel courses of "strength" development: physical, emotional, and spiritual. It is the story of who we truly are - our spiritual heritage and our divine destiny. "When solved, this puzzle (of The Shroud of Turin) may...identify the elusive 'missing link' bridging the seemingly disparate worlds of science and spirituality." Best-selling author Gregg Braden, excerpt from the Foreword to STRONG WOMAN -Unshrouding the Secrets of the Soul.
