Seventy Years of Miracles

This book definitely lives up to it's name as "one of the most interesting autobiographies you will read." The true stories in this book are proof of the power of prayer and faith. This book has the famous "Flask Story," which tells about a professor at Allegheny College where Dr. Harvey attended in Meadville, PA. His chemistry professor did not believe in the power of prayer, and challenged any student in the class to pray that when he would drop a flask it would not break. A student did challenge him and prayed aloud in Jesus name the flask wouldn't break, and it didn't! There are many other inspirational true stories in this book and I recommend it to everyone.

This book is refreshing in that it really makes one think about their prayer life. It encouraged me to pray more boldly and to have more faith in a God who always answers our prayers to the best way He knows how. I read this book in 1 night; it's easy reading and keeps you interested with new stories every chapter. It also bring up thoughts about how times have changed since these events occurred.

One of the most phenominal accounts that I have ever read of God's movement through someone's life other than the Bible. It is a book that moves quickly and can be picked up and read at different times or at one sitting. Richard Harvey relays how God moved through his as well as his parent's life. And it all happened within the past century! As you read this book, you will find yourself drawn to seek Jesus more personally and boldly. Harvey shows through his own life that God moves just a fully and vibrantly through the lives of His children today as He did in the days of Abraham and Paul. I would recommend this book to anyone from the fresh new believer to the seasoned saint. After reading this book, I found myself more candid in my prayer life and open to the movement of His Spirit in my daily walk with Him.
