Book Description

February 1, 1999
Robert Miller, a scientist at Lockheed, conducted a series of experiments with healer Olga Worrall in her prime that proved conclusively that healing prayer has a definite and dramatic impact on the object of the prayer--even at a distance of hundreds of miles! This book is a record of a variety of experiments conducted on the nature of healing, including experiments that revealed the negative impact of destructive thoughts, as well as tests he conducted on the healing power at Lourdes. All experiments were conducted along strict scientific lines.

Review

Stimulating, thought-provoking--yes, even exciting reading. You will surely believe. -- Robert Young, star of Marcus Welby, M.D.

About the Author

Robert N. Miller played for Ohio State in the Rose Bowl, served as a professor of chemical engineering at Georgia Tech, and finished his career as a research scientist at Lockheed Aircraft Corp. His personal experiences led him to discover Ambrose and Olga Worrall, two of the best healers of their time. He learned first hand to respect their healing talents, which in turn inspired him to set up a series of scientific experiments to prove that healing prayers do work!

5.0 out of 5 stars Proves that prayer and healing energies are effective, November 20, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Miracles in the Making: Scientific Evidence for the Effectiveness of Prayer (Paperback)
Miracles in the Making is a book which details some of theearliest scientific evidence for the effectiveness of prayer. Itcontains the results of a five-year study on the mechanism of effective prayer sponsored by the Holmes Center for Research in Holistic Healing. The author of this book, Dr. Robert N. Miller, has presented the work in the experimental sections in the style of the journals and magazines in which it was originally published. It is an inspiration for those in the medical profession, scientists and other investigators to recognize and do their own research on the effectiveness of prayer and healing energies in the life of all who want to improve their health and life conditions. The healers who participated in the scientific experiments reported in the book included the devoted Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship International members Olga and Ambrose Worrall, Rev. Alex Holmes, and the Rev. Dr. Richard Batzler. Today, with the renewed interest in the subject of healing and healing energies, this book presents us with scientific evidence of the effectiveness of prayer and healing energies. Thank you, Dr. Miller, for sharing with us these outstanding experiments and for renewing our dedication to that which we in SFFI know is possible still today. Elizabeth W. Fenske, Ph. D. Executive Director Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship International

5.0 out of 5 stars Presents scientific evidence for the effectiveness of prayer, May 12, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Miracles in the Making: Scientific Evidence for the Effectiveness of Prayer (Paperback)
This book includes the results of a five-year study on the mechanism of effective prayer. Dr. Miller says the question of why some prayers are answered and some not has always puzzled mankind. He says prayers are anwered by, not one, but by a number of means: (1) contact with a source of healing energy, (2) by mentally creating a condition whereby the energy which is present everywhere flows into the object or subject, (3) by power of suggestion and, (4) most important, attunement to the source of all power and healing energy by prayer and meditation.

The middle chapters outline research into healing and healing energies by such well-known persons as Olga and Ambrose Worrall, Dr. Carl Simonton, Cleve Baxter and himself; also, he cites studies in effective prayer by Dr. Benson of Havard Medical School. Dr. Miller believes scientific methods and measurements have and will be used to understand what is actually happening in the miracles we call prayer and healing . This should not be seen as substitute for faith, but rather as a revelation that enhances and strengthens our faith. Properly pursued, these experiments - and others like them - let us analyze, step by step, these tremendous and remarkable "miracles in the making." Judie P. Stidham, Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship International
