Barbara Oleynick’s “The Time Has Come,” the inaugural book in a mystical trilogy, introduces readers to a world where spirituality intertwines with the urgency of global peace. Oleynick, a nurse, educator, and accomplished theater director, weaves a narrative that blends elements reminiscent of “The Golden Child,” Michael Scallion’s prophecies, and cutting-edge vibration-frequency theories.
The story centers on Rachel, a 13-year-old whose baby, Grace, is destined to bring peace to the world. The narrative evokes strong emotions, from tears at Grace’s birth to heartache at the tragic loss within Rachel’s family.
Initially, the book’s religious undertones are subtle, suggesting a Creator present in every molecule and a purpose inherent in life. Oleynick touches upon historical religious events, emphasizing the importance of legacy and the individual responsibility to fulfill one’s purpose.
While the storyline is captivating, the latter part of the book delves deeply into spiritual concepts and reflects the negativity of current world events. Despite this shift, “The Time Has Come” offers a compelling exploration of faith, destiny, and the power of hope.
