The Greatest Miracle in the World - By Og Mandino

Editorial Review

Writer/orator Og Mandino draws on his storytelling skill to inspire us on Andrew Carnegie, Norman Vincent Peale et al. His message and style probably work best on the credulously hopeful. More personality shines in his voice than in his prose. Probably more spontaneous when speaking before a live audience, he exudes cracker-barrel New England tone... ...Y.R.

Mandino has contributed another masterpiece to the success/motivation literature. A quote attributed to Seneca helps sum up this book's theme, "soil, no matter how rich, could not be productive without cultivation and neither could our minds." This book provides the proper nourishment for the productive mind. The familiar aphorism "you are what you think" is developed in compelling fashion. Mandino is skilled in maintaining a bit of mystery as he expands upon principles familiar to readers of this genre. He holds his readers captive by the storytelling talent few possess to the degree of a few masters. Pathos is built by the characters and the situations painted in the mind's eye as the plot develops. There are some powerful insights that will motivate any reader with an open mind... ...William G.

The God Memorandum was introduced to me by Dr. Tom Costa, Pastor of Religious Science Church of the Desert ... near Palm Springs, California when it was incorporated into one of his many superb humorous sermons. The story itself is intriguing and I found that I couldn't put it down. After reading the "God Memorandum" chapter, I decided to do the 100 days as instructed. It wasn't easy but with each day I found it brought new positive thinking leading to new and positive decision making which created new positive experiences. It is now over a year since my 100 days. I can attest to a wonderfully changed life. A life that seems to continue to grow in love. Personally, I feel everyone should have the experience of this marvelous little book... ...JM (Palm Springs, California)

I finished reading this book just a few minutes ago & found it to be a wonderful read. It deals with humanity's need for a healthy dose of self-esteem from a Godly perspective. This, however, can in no way replace God's actual memorandum to the world in the form of His immutable, undeniable Word of God- which some parts of this book paraphrase and allude to. This hopeful, encouraging work of fiction is commendable also as it points people in an upward direction in order for them to move forward. This book- seen in the light for what it truly is- will help many. But only those who accept the atoning work of Jesus will truly be "saved" & thus enabled to love their neighbor as they love themselves. It reminds me of a type of John the Baptist who served to prepare the way of the Lord & to teach the concept of repentace so when the Messiah started His ministry many were prepared to receive Him... ...MIRIAM DOBSON (BROOKLYN, NY USA)
