5.0 out of 5 stars Brad Steiger creates yet another Real Miracle!, July 9, 2009

This review is from: Real Miracles, Divine Intervention, and Feats of Incredible Survival (Paperback)

"Real Miracles" is a blessing! In this huge work of non-fiction, Brad and Sherry Steiger weave many, many harrowing stories of REAL survival, miracles, Divine Intervention and thensome into a tome worthy of placement right next to the Holy Scripture. Yes, you heard me right. It should be placed next to THAT Book! The reason is simple enough. This wonderful, miraculous book (forgive the pun) further solidifies and confirms the existence, if not also the direct link that we have to the Divine. The best part is, Brad and Sherry don't just narrow it down to one single Faith. They simply put it to us in the words or our fellow human beings. In the stories of their survival from almost certain loss, Divine Intervention in the face of imminent death, we are reminded that we are not alone in this magical spiritual world. We are shown in words, deeds, human and, sometimes, even angelic or spiritual action, that our lives are precious. So precious that we should NEVER take it for granted.

Once again, Brad and Sherry bring us a total winner. It's everything you are looking for in a great read. If you haven't bought it yet, don't wait any longer. You won't regret it. And I dare you to put it down after one read.

This review is from: Real Miracles, Divine Intervention, and Feats of Incredible Survival (Paperback)

"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arugments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance--that principle is contempt prior to investigation."

-- Herbert Spencer

The writing team of Brad and Steiger have done it again, a classic work of real miracles, divine intervention, and incredible survival, told in a Hemmingway-like style that makes this non-fiction classic a treat for man, woman, and child.

I have not found much solace in the normal trappings of organized religion and the rantings of TV preachers, but my spirtural journey has been guided by such books as these, written in a format easy to comprehend, yet diverse enough to make it an eternal page turner.

I am a Brad and Sherry Steiger fan, they are my most favorite non-fiction writers, but I am always amazed has to how deeply each story is researched and cross referenced, so that the reader can search for more!

Buy this book, I promise you will not be disappointed, as a stand alone masterpiece, or as an additonal to the Steiger library, I give it two thumbs way up!

Or as it says on page 189, "always keep the faith..."

Brad and Sherry Steiger have done so, and I salute them on their lives.
