Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
After an introductory section that traces the conflict between miracles and science from the Gospels to modern times, novelist and popular spiritual memoirist Wakefield (Returning: A Spiritual Journey, etc.) explores miracles of healing and recovery, love and re-creation, encounter and presence. He uses stories of ordinary people (rabbis, pastors, prisoners, factory workers), recording many dramatic experiences of the miraculous. Wakefield urges us to recognize the ways in which our lives are shaped by everyday miracles?the taste of food, the love others give, etc. Indeed, according to Wakefield, the power of miracles arises out of their existence in ordinary lives and out of the openness with which people receive them. Not merely another book about the role of the supernatural in a skeptical society, Expect is a lively collection filled with honest revelations and searching questions for those seeking to experience the miraculous in everyday life.

From Library Journal
Two years ago, contemporary writer Wakefield surprised many when he honestly and movingly recounted his spiritual reawakening in Returning: A Spiritual Journey (LJ 3/1/88). Now, he collects a variety of stories about the power of healing, presence, and recovery that miracles bring to daily life. The first chapter of his book offers an insightful look at the history and psychology of miracles. After listening to countless stories of the miraculous, Wakefield concludes that the greatest miracles are to be found in the intimate and surprising events of our everyday lives. Readers will find Wakefield a trustworthy companion on their own spiritual journeys because of his honesty in sharing his own spiritual struggles. Highly recommended.
