Miraculous by Kevin Belmont

Based on the title of the book I assumed the examples provided would all be examples from the bible.  The first third of the book does go into the miracles within the bible and does a good job explaining the details behind each of the examples that were selected.  The author could have easily filled the whole book up in this manner but he did not.  Instead, the author pulled examples of people from all walks of life to show the miracle that occurred and how that one event made a major difference in that person life.  The examples he used were people like St. Augustine, Martin Luther, Jonathan Edwards, and George Washington, just to name a few.  Each chapter is dedicated to a different person in the later part of the book.  Each one is a mini biographical snap shot of that person and the miracle that changed their life.  I found the book interesting because not only did the author select examples form the bible but the background he provided on the others crossed several different life styles and geographical locations.
I received a free copy of this book from BookSneeze in exchange for my honest review of the book.
