Faith To Produce Miracles

Brent C. Satterfield, Ph.D., believes we have the power to work miracles; and we only need the keys to unlock it. A new science of healing through conscious intent is emerging in scientific literature. But how is this healing done? And what does this appearance of seemingly spiritual gifts mean for those who already have a strong religious faith? Satterfield, a global health scientist and a convert to Christianity, was guided to take a sabbatical to study those with the faith to work miracles. He discovered that the greatest healers and miracle workers often came from philosophies and religions outside his own. His book is a reminder that truth is brightest when we set aside our differences to integrate all light into one great whole. Faith to Produce Miracles delves into the subconscious motives for human actions, reveals the denials of Gods power, and explores methods for purifying and releasing the emotions that direct those actions.

Do miracles still happen today? This book demonstrates that miraculous works of God, which have been part of the experience of the church around the world since Christianity began, continue into the present. Leading New Testament scholar Craig Keener addresses common questions about miracles and provides compelling reasons to believe in them today, including many accounts that offer evidence of verifiable miracles. This book gives an accessible and concise overview of one of Keener's most significant research topics. His earlier two-volume work on miracles stands as the definitive word on the topic, but its size and scope are daunting to many readers. This new book summarizes Keener's basic argument but contains substantial new material, including new accounts of the miraculous. It is suitable as a textbook but also accessible to church leaders and laypeople.

"THANK YOU SO MUCH for your brilliant, light-filled book! I am thrilled as I read it and ponder, pray and apply these principles! They are familiar and sweet and are taking me to deeper levels of insight and healing." - Joan E."Visions of Glory is the only other book that had me so hooked that it was hard to put it down. Your book is yummy to my spirit!" -Kristy P."There is great power in letting go of all fear, yielding everything to God, acknowledging that we can't do it, being at peace (cheerful) in the present, and being patient because the Lord's timing is for the greatest good...What miracles will appear in our lives as we follow this pattern? In Brent Satterfield's book, 'Faith to Produce Miracles' these principles are explained in greater depth, I highly recommend it." -Arden Compton in the blog, Lessons from the LoavesNear death experiences in recent years have described visions of men and women going forth on the earth with great power, healing the sick, creating portals to travel through time and space, accessing hidden knowledge, changing the properties of matter, extending the natural life-time, conversing with God and angels and many other mind-blowing gifts. Do these spiritual gifts have any basis in reality? Are any of these presently found upon the earth? And if so, what is the basis for the ability to have and exercise these types of gifts?Dr. Satterfield, a convert to Christianity, took a sabbatical from his career as a global health researcher and entrepreneur to study healing and other signs among those who exercise the consistent and intentional power to work miracles. He said, "As amazing as each of these gifts sounds, I have discovered and witnessed that many of these gifts are currently being taught in some capacity or another in different locations around the world. I felt God leading me forth just to witness these things, almost as a scientist recording data of which the rest of the world is still largely unaware. The beauty of being a scientist is that I don't have to understand what is happening; I just have to faithfully record it. Then from a non-emotional place, I can try to understand what I have witnessed and make conjectures about how and why it works. More amazing still, is that I, a left-brained, doubting Thomas, have experienced an increase of these gifts as well."He discovered that those who work miracles have a series of traits in common with each other regardless of their religious background. They have accessed a higher form of faith that connects to and uses power, above and beyond faith as a principle of action which is the lower, preparatory form of faith accessed in most world religions. This book teaches the principles on which the two levels of faith are based and also deeply explores the purification of the heart necessary to access the higher level of faith. "It is my hope that my descriptions of what has created the faith to produce miracles in the lives of others will be of benefit to you. I do not describe the miracles half so much as the faith itself and the techniques for developing that faith. If you want to read about miracles, there are plenty of books out there that discuss these. This book is for developing your faith so that you can have the changes of heart that lead to the experience of miracles. When you understand the foundations of faith as a principle of power and apply those foundations, the miracles will follow on their own."He continues in another place, "Although your family line may not have been blessed with the gifts of healing others, conversing with angels, looking into the heavens or other gifts too numerous to count, each of these gifts can be acquired to the extent you are willing to allow healing take place at the deepest levels of the subconscious."

For as long as the idea of "miracles" has been in the public sphere, the conversation about them has been shaped exclusively by religious apologists and Christian leaders. The definitions for what a miracles are have been forged by the same men who fought hard to promote their own beliefs as fitting under that umbrella. It's time for a change. Enter John W. Loftus, an atheist author who has earned three master's degrees from Lincoln Christian Seminary and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Loftus, a former student of noted Christian apologist William Lane Craig, got some of the biggest names in the field to contribute to this book, which represents a critical analysis of the very idea of miracles. Incorporating his own thoughts along with those of noted academics, philosophers, and theologians, Loftus is able to properly define "miracle" and then show why there's no reason to believe such a thing even exists. Addressing every single issue that touches on miracles in a thorough and academic manner, this compilation represents the most extensive look at the phenomenon ever displayed through the lens of an ardent nonbeliever. If you've ever wondered exactly what a miracle is, or doubted whether they exist, then this book is for you.

Christianity Today 2013 Book Award Winner Winner of The Foundation for Pentecostal Scholarship's 2012 Award of Excellence 2011 Book of the Year, Christianbook.com's Academic Blog Most modern prejudice against biblical miracle reports depends on David Hume's argument that uniform human experience precluded miracles. Yet current research shows that human experience is far from uniform. In fact, hundreds of millions of people today claim to have experienced miracles. New Testament scholar Craig Keener argues that it is time to rethink Hume's argument in light of the contemporary evidence available to us. This wide-ranging and meticulously researched two-volume study presents the most thorough current defense of the credibility of the miracle reports in the Gospels and Acts. Drawing on claims from a range of global cultures and taking a multidisciplinary approach to the topic, Keener suggests that many miracle accounts throughout history and from contemporary times are best explained as genuine divine acts, lending credence to the biblical miracle reports.

What do you do when your hopes and dreams seem to die? Mahesh and Bonnie Chavda, two respected international leaders, contend that for Christians, this doesn't need to be a time of discouragement. Instead, as believers learn to welcome the anointing presence of Jesus, any valley can be transformed into a place of miracles. The Chavdas focus on the Shuammite woman in 2 Kings, who was given, and then lost, and then received back again her young son. First narrating and then exploring this account of death and restoration, the Chavdas encourage readers to face their broken dreams and make room for Jesus' resurrection power. As believers recognize the possibility of the impossible, refusing to let go of the Presence, God can bring even the most hopeless dream to life.
