SPOKANE, WASHINGTON & POST FALLS, IDAHO (ANS) -- Late in 2000, Christian authors, Sheri Stone of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and Therese Marszalek of Spokane, Washington were perplexed by the lack of supernatural miracles being exposed in both Christian and secular publications.

"Having witnessed and heard of an increasing number of miracles, we felt the opportunity was ripe to magnify the great work God is performing in the earth today through supernatural miracles," said Stone.

Together, Sheri and Therese have set out to gather testimonies from across the globe for compilation in a book to glorify the God of Miracles. Searching for and sharing supernatural testimonies with other Christians continues to be an exciting prospect for these two women.

Sheri and Therese are collaborating on a book titled, "Miracles," a collection of eyewitness testimonies of supernatural miracles. "Testimonies of God's miraculous move have already been received in the areas of healing, deliverance, protection and provision, just to name a few," said Therese.

"We want 'Miracles' to demonstrate that God is truly alive today and to lead every reader to a personal relationship with the God of Miracles through Jesus Christ," she said.

"We invite Christians to submit their testimony for consideration in this exciting book," said Stone.  Stories must be true, eyewitness testimonies of approximately 3-5 pages in length (750-1250 words). "Testimonies should depict details of your experience prior to God's intervention, explain how God stepped in and changed the situation and describe how your life changed as a result of God's intervention," Stone said.

Testimonies should be submitted before May 15 unless other arrangements are made. If you are unable to write your story, your testimony can be submitted via tape recording or a personal interview can be arranged. Stories will be given first rights, meaning it can be resubmitted to another publication after being published in the "Miracles" book.

Stone and Marszalek expect to complete "Miracles" by July 2001 and submit for publishing shortly thereafter. A complimentary copy of "Miracles" will be provided to each contributor having their story in this compilation, upon publication.

Sheri Stone is director of International Network of Christians In the Arts (INC 'n The ARTS), a network for Christians in the Arts. Presently, she and INC's staff are developing a Christian performing arts center for all the arts in North Idaho. Sheri is an author, screenwriter with Gene, her husband of 41 years, student of music, art, journalism and Biblical expository. She is the proud mother of three grown sons and four grandchildren.

Her writing is focused on teaching Biblical truth to bring hope and healing through Jesus Christ.
