“As I read, I am the Reluctant Messiah and So Are YOU, it brought every emotion to the surface, from deep sorrow to pure elation. It is a book that will leave you craving to know more. I did not want to set it down. The author, Reverend Robyn Accetturo L.C.S.W. shares a riveting detailed account of embracing and opening to her spiritual gifts, which is utterly awe inspiring and empowering. What truly made me fall in love was the raw authenticity and vulnerability in which this book is written. This book is heartfelt through and through. I was immediately captivated by the real-life circumstances that were so intimately shared yet rarely acknowledged aloud in the 1980’s. It allows you to feel as if you are right there in the story with her. Robyn’s courageous openness and dedication to continuously give unconditional love despite the monstrosities she endured gives hope to us all. Robyn walks in faith and not fear while shining her love light on everyone she touches in this book and beyond. She is blessed with the gift of unconditional love. This book reveals how what happens to you does not have to define you.”

“In 2007, I had my first Reiki session in Fair Haven, New Jersey. My reaction to the session was unlike anything I had ever experienced, and I knew I needed to find a Reiki Healer in Illinois. Once I returned home and googled Reiki Healers near me, I found Reverend Robyn Accetturo, L.C.S.W.. I was raised in Brooklyn, New York, in a rough area called Bedford Stuyvesant and was taught very early in life how to protect myself and to be cautious. So, calling someone on the phone based upon their name appearing on the Internet did not go along with the rules I had been taught. But, for some reason without skipping a beat, I picked up the phone and called Robyn. Although I didn’t know it then, I was divinely guided to her.

Robyn came to my home for my first Reiki healing session. This night was a truly life-changing event. I was in awe! Through her gifts, I was reunited with my family and friends who had passed away, and I was introduced to my Angels and Spirit Guides. Thanks to Robyn’s gifts, I discovered my faith in a new way. Robyn has become my friend, confidante and teacher. She has never-ending compassion for friend or stranger. Robyn is an everyday Earth Angel, and I treasure having her in my life.”

“In her book I am the Reluctant Messiah and so are YOU, Robyn Accetturo, L.C.S.W. weaves the mystical and the practical together in a way that keeps the reader enthralled. At times, the book almost reads like a fantasy, but in sharing the extraordinary nature of her personal experiences, there is no denying the truth Robyn expresses in telling her story. No matter where you are on your spiritual journey, whether you are just starting to acknowledge unseen possibilities, or you are further along the path, this book provides valuable insights and down-to-earth suggestions, which anyone can use. The author
presents specific tools leading to deeper and deeper spiritual awareness. The reader can choose tools that feel like psychology or ones that are more esoteric. Whatever resonates, this book provides a wealth of information.
Ultimately, it is a Self-help book, self with a capital S. It is a book to lead us within, to our true Divine nature, which is love. It also shows us the recognition that we are spirit fundamentally having a human experience. Knowing we are a spirit operating a human body, and acting from this space, will change your life. Let this book be your guide.”

“Robyn Accetturo, L.C.S.W.’s part memoir and part lessons from spiritual guidance is a must read especially for those of us in the practice of the healing arts. As we follow our spiritual guidance and soul path, we open ourselves to the possibilities of seeing the miracles all around us, especially in what presents as pain and suffering in this world. Robyn does a masterful job of weaving these truths in her book and sharing from her heart the lessons from Spirit, with the ultimate lesson of knowing we are all connected
both on this planet and in the space of spirit energy when we no longer inhabit out earthly bodies. Robyn’s courage to share these fundamental truths despite those who aren’t able to embrace it is one of the tenets of those who are called prophets. I am 
deeply grateful she is willing to have courageous authenticity and share deeply from her heart and soul.”

“If you have ever questioned why you were compelled to do something that you just couldn’t explain, or wondered how you ended up being in the right place at exactly the right time, then Reverend Robyn Accetturo L.C.S.W.’s book, I am the Reluctant Messiah, and so are YOU is a definite must read! This beautifully written story is a call to action that implores the reader to recognize that we are all meant to be here, we all have gifts, and if we can just let go of the negative thoughts and feelings that are holding us back, we can share those gifts with those around us for the greater good of
humanity. This book is uplifting and encouraging, and I implore every reader to open their hearts and minds to allow Robyn to teach you how to implement your own God given talents and gifts so you can be your true authentic self and the person God intended you to be.”

“I met Robyn Accetturo, L.C.S.W. during a pivotal moment in my life. I signed up for Reiki training and Robyn was assisting with the training. Our connection was instant, and I was amazed at her vast spiritual knowledge and understanding. Growing up as a Catholic, I knew a great deal about religious teachings but something always seemed to be standing in the way of my connection to God. When my spiritual journey began, I started to understand that what I’d been searching for the whole time and missing from my life required a slight shift and opening to ideas that were different from what I learned in church. Robyn was the spiritual teacher and mentor who showed up as soon as I was ready to learn! She patiently listened to every question and fear I had, and she explained concepts and ideas that made sense to me. I ended up taking many meditation training classes from Robyn which were the turning point in my life. For the first time, I understood that God and my spirit were intimately connected, and I could
feel that connection more and more strongly as my meditation and spiritual practice became a daily part of my life. I can’t recommend Robyn and her book highly enough. Robyn was a true Angel in my life who appeared at just the right moment and helped my life to grow in ways that I only imagined possible. Robyn’s spiritual knowledge, connection, and understanding surpass anyone’s I’ve ever met. If you want to change your life and learn how to feel happy, fulfilled, and excited about fulfilling your life’s purpose, Robyn’s book can help you get there.”

“Thought provoking and beautiful, I Am the Reluctant Messiah and So Are YOU is a guide to understanding we are spiritual beings having a human experience. Robyn Accetturo L.C.S.W.’s “Spiritual Operations Manual” gives holistic guidance on healing from personal traumas and the importance of facing and releasing our emotions. A must for everyone. At the same time, this is a beautiful yet heart breaking story of someone who dug deep within herself to heal her own traumas. It shows Robyn’s unwavering faith in a Higher Power and the miracles that happen when we operate as spiritual
beings. I am grateful for her wisdom and courage to share.”
