Miracles


Title: MIRACLES
Author: Karen Kingsbury
Publisher: Faithworks
November 2009
ISBN: 978-0-448-55795-5
Genre: Inspirational/devotional/miracles

MIRACLES is a 52-week devotional about stories where God stepped down and miraculously helped one of His people—sometimes by saving them from certain death, sometimes by answering prayers for children, sometimes by teaching them an important lesson about life and faith.

Each devotional starts out with a suggested Bible reading, then there is a verse in the sidebar of the story. After you read the story, another verse follows.

I’m not sure how this would really work as a devotional, as the stories were so engaging that I couldn’t put the book down. I had to keep reading it, going from page to page to page from start to finish of the whole book.

But, even if this book may not be used in the method it was intended, it is a very excellent read, and beautifully hardcopy, excellent for gift-giving (if you can bear to give it up!)

This book will help you to see that God does still work miracles in the lives of ordinary people who live by faith. It will help you be changed by the power of God. $14.99. 223 pages.
