Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God can do anything He wants, anywhere He wants, anytime He wants, and in any way He wants. Sometimes He lets us see. All of us have experienced coincidences first hand, and perhaps we've encountered the truly unexplainable. But have we seen a genuine miracle? What does the Bible tell us about such events? Journey offers a unique perspective on miracles that challenges the reader to decide for themselves what is real and what is not. This true, thought provoking record of the supernatural first escorts you back to the international “Jesus Movement” of the 1970's to ponder some of the astonishing ways God rocked the lives of a generation of young Christians. The story continues to unfold as you wander across America with a humble band of “Jesus People.” Roaming in old, unreliable buses, the gentle shepherding of an unseen traveler is no sooner revealed than the extraordinary journey only becomes more difficult. But the young riders do not turn back. Startling events lead to the discovery that miracles aren't always what they first appear to be. Then, repeated lessons of faith point the travelers to an unforgettable truth: - There is a reason to listen to the Shepherd. - There is a reason to stay close.

Download or read book Journey of Miracles written by Theresa Jean Nichols and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The five Journey of Miracle Books are all combined in this one book. They are testimonies of how God saved me from circumstances that were too overwhelming for me. When my late husband died, I was left a widow at the age of 47 with most all the money gone and no one was willing to hire me. It didn't matter that I could type over 100 words per minute and had a resume that would convince them that I could do it. That is when the reality hit me in a very tangible way that I needed supernatural intervention. Did I really believe the Word of God? Did I really? Could I really trust it? Could I, really? That thought was so easily said "Yes" prior to my real need for the "Yes." My life has been changed forever as I saw The Hand of God meet my every need down to the smallest detail. I know you will enjoy this journey, for I know God, you will be able to relate. He is no respecter of persons. Let these stories encourage you on your journey to living a life filled with peace - no matter what the storm may hold. God is the pilot. He is in control...we just have to let go and let God go ahead and have His way. When you have done all you can do, I assure you, all you have to do is stand on the Word of God and make your claims. Stay in obedience, for it is the key...and the only way. God bless you!

Luminous, suspenseful, unforgettable, The Age of Miracles tells the haunting and beautiful story of Julia and her family as they struggle to live in a time of extraordinary change. On an ordinary Saturday in a California suburb, Julia awakes to discover that something has happened to the rotation of the earth. The days and nights are growing longer and longer; gravity is affected; the birds, the tides, human behavior, and cosmic rhythms are thrown into disarray. In a world that seems filled with danger and loss, Julia also must face surprising developments in herself, and in her personal world—divisions widening between her parents, strange behavior by her friends, the pain and vulnerability of first love, a growing sense of isolation, and a surprising, rebellious new strength. With crystalline prose and the indelible magic of a born storyteller, Karen Thompson Walker gives us a breathtaking portrait of people finding ways to go on in an ever-evolving world. “Gripping drama . . . flawlessly written; it could be the most assured debut by an American writer since Jennifer Egan’s Emerald City.”—The Denver Post “Pure magnificence.”—Nathan Englander “Provides solace with its wisdom, compassion, and elegance.”—Curtis Sittenfeld “Riveting, heartbreaking, profoundly moving.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Look for special features inside.

Book excerpt: The feel-good book of the year: a delightful novel of friendship, community, and the way small acts of kindness can change your life, by the bestselling author of The Story of Arthur Truluv Lucille Howard is getting on in years, but she stays busy. Thanks to the inspiration of her dearly departed friend Arthur Truluv, she has begun to teach baking classes, sharing the secrets to her delicious classic Southern yellow cake, the perfect pinwheel cookies, and other sweet essentials. Her classes have become so popular that she’s hired Iris, a new resident of Mason, Missouri, as an assistant. Iris doesn’t know how to bake but she needs to keep her mind off a big decision she sorely regrets. When a new family moves in next door and tragedy strikes, Lucille begins to look out for Lincoln, their son. Lincoln’s parents aren’t the only ones in town facing hard choices and uncertain futures. In these difficult times, the residents of Mason come together and find the true power of community—just when they need it the most. “Elizabeth Berg’s characters jump right off the page and into your heart” said Fannie Flagg about The Story of Arthur Truluv. The same could be said about Night of Miracles, a heartwarming novel that reminds us that the people we come to love are often the ones we don’t expect.

As the endearing, odd-lot characters of Mason, Missouri, coalesce into new families, dessert is served: a plateful of chocolate-and-vanilla pinwheel cookies for the soul.”—USA Today “Full of empathy and charm, every chapter infuses the heart with a renewed sense of hope.” —Woman’s World
